Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
- Version / remarks:
- adopted 12 May 1981
- Deviations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- No pretreatment to create local skin irritation was done before epicutaneous induction.
- GLP compliance:

Dose range finding test:
Intradermal application:
- 1 % and 5 %: no evidence of necrosis or systemic toxicity -> 5% is used for the main study
Topical application:
- 100 % (undiluted) and 50%: no irritant response in any animal at any observation -> 100% is used for the main study
Main study:
Induction: no documentation of reactions
Challenge:
- no dermal reactions in the control group
- at the 24 h reading 10/20 animals showed moderate diffuse redness (grade 2), 7/20 animals showed scattered mild redness (grade 1) and 3/20 showed no dermal reaction
- at the 48 h reading 7/20 animals showed moderate diffuse redness (grade 2), 9/20 animals showed scattered mild redness (grade 1) and 4/20 animals showed no dermal reaction
Body weight gains of the test group was slightly reduced between day 0 and 24 compared to the control animals. 3 animals in the experimental group showed body weight losses.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (skin sensitising) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- TFMEA was sensitising in this GPMT test.
- Executive summary:
In a dermal sensitisation study similar to OECD guideline 406, adopted 12 May 1981, with TFMEA (not given in the study report, but according to sponsor >90%), 20 young adult female Dunkin-Hartley guinea pigs were tested using the method of Magnusson & Kligman (Guinea Pig Maximisation Test).
Test concentrations were selected based on pretest results. For the intradermal and epicutaneous induction procedure concentrations of 5% in arachis oil and 100% were used, respectively. The test article concentration for the challange procedure was 100%. No pretreatment to create local skin irritation was done before epicutaneous induction.
After challenge10/20 animals showed moderate diffuse redness (grade 2), 7/20 animals showed scattered mild redness (grade 1) and 3/20 showed no dermal reaction at the 24 h observation. Similar results were observed after 48 h. No dermal reactions were noted in the control group.
The test material produced a response in 85% of the animals. According to CLP, EU GHS (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), a response of at least 30% of the test animals of an adjuvant type guinea pig test method for skin sensitisation is considered as positive.
TFMEA is a dermal sensitiser in this study.
