- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:

Data source
Reference
- Reference Type:
- publication
- Title:
- Structure activity relationships in a skin sensitization using the murine local lymph node assay
- Author:
- Ashby J, Basketter DA, Paton D AND Kimber I
- Year:
- 1 995
- Bibliographic source:
- Toxicology 103: 177-194
Materials and methods
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Proliferation of local lymph node was determined by means of increased 3H-thymidine incorporation. A threefold increase compared with vehicle-treated controls was considered to be determinant of sensitising capacity.
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Type of study:
- mouse local lymph node assay (LLNA)
Test material
- Reference substance name:
- Automatically generated during migration to IUCLID 6, no data available
- IUPAC Name:
- Automatically generated during migration to IUCLID 6, no data available
- Details on test material:
- - Name of test material (as cited in study report): Dimethyl sulfate

- Parameter:
- SI
- Remarks on result:
- other: Ratio of 3H-thymidine incorporation in local lymph nodes of treated vs control animals was reported to be 3.8 (concentration of test substance 0.25%), 6.0 (0.5%), 5.7 (1.0%).
- Parameter:
- other: disintegrations per minute (DPM)
