- Intradermal injections:
A series of four test substance concentrations was used; the highest concentration being the maximum concentration that could technically be
injected. Each of two animals received two different concentrations in duplicate (0.1 ml/site) in the clipped scapular region. The resulting dermal
reactions were assessed 24 and 48 hours after treatment.
Epidermal application:
A series of four test substance concentrations was used; the highest concentration being the maximum concentration that could technically be
applied. Two different concentrations were applied (0.5 ml each) per animal to the clipped flank, using Scotchpak-non-woven patches* (2x3 cm) onMicropore tape* and held in place by Coban elastic bandage*. The animals receiving intradermal injections were treated with the lowest
concentrations and two further animals with the highest concentrations. After 24 hours, the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of
residual test.
substance. The resulting dermal reactions were assessed for irritation 24 and 48
hours after exposure.

Any other information on results incl. tables
Maximum concentration not causing irritating effects in preliminary test: 100 %
Signs of irritation during induction:
0/10
Evidence of sensitisation of each challenge concentration:
8/10
Other observations:
The substance showed a sensitisation rate of 80%
Scaliness was seen in a treated skin site of one animals.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The skin reactions observed in response to the undiluted test substance in eight (of the ten) experimental animals in the challenge phase were
considered indicative of sensitisation, based on the absence of any response in the control animals.
These results indicate a sensitisation rate of 80 per cent.
Applying the allergenicity rating described by Kligman A.M. (1966) to the results obtained in this test, NIKKOL VC-IP is considered to have strong
sensitising properties.
