- Test groups: 10
- Control group: 4
- Site: Injections were made in the clipped intracapsular region on either side of the spine
- Frequency of applications: Three pairs of intradermal injections (0.1 ml)
- Duration: Seven days later, the previous injection sites were covered occlusively for 48 hours with a patch carrying the test article (50%) or, in control animals, the control article petrolatum.
- Concentrations: Test Group 1) FCA 50% (v/v) diluted in aqua ad iniectabilia, 2) test article 5% in peanut oil, 3) test article 5% in aqua ad iniectabilia/F CA. Control group: 1) FCA 50% (v/v) diluted in aqua ad iniectabilia, 2) peanut oil, 3) peanut oil 50% (v/v) diluted in FCA.
B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 14 days after the second stage of the induction
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Test groups: 10 test animals
- Control group: 4 control animals
- Site: The challenge test was performed on a 5 x 5 cm clipped skin area on each flank.
- Concentrations: The challenge test was applied at the concentration of 50% to the left flank and the control article petroleum to the right in a volume of 0.5 g using the patch tehnique.
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 hours after patch removal the appearance of the challenge and re-challenge skin sites was observed and skin responses were graffed on the basis of the classification system according DRAIZE. The animals were weighed before treatment and at the end of the study. All findings were recorded with respect to duration and severity on special report forms.

- Both control and test animals were subjected to a challenge exposure 14 days after the second stage of the induction. The challenge test was performed on a 5 x 5 cm clipped skin area on each flank. The test article was applied at the concentration of 50% to the left flank and the control article petrolatum to the right in a volume of 0.5 g using the patch technique. In each case, the duration of the exposure was 24 hours under an occlusive dressing.
- Positive control substance(s):

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not classified under CLP criteria
- Conclusions:
- According to the EEC Directive 2001/59/EEC, 6 August 2001 and the Gefahrstoffverordnung (GefStoffV) of 15 November 1999 (BGB1. I, p. 2233) testconditions described, the test substance "LITHARGE lead oxide" can be classified as a "non-sensitiser" since no allergic responses were observed in test animals under the experimental conditions described.
- Executive summary:
The potential skin sensitising properties of the test article "LITHARGE lead oxide" were assessed in the guinea pig maximisation sensitisation test carried out as an adjuvant test according to the Magnusson & Kligman Maximisation test method, using 10 test and 5 control animals in the main test. Following the induction exposure to the test article (50% in petrolatum) or the vehicle petrolatum (control article), the animals of both groups were subjected two weeks later to a challenge exposure with the test article (50% in petrolatum) as well as the control article. Responses to the challenge procedure were evaluated 24 and 48 hours after the end of the exposure period.
Results: -No allergic skin reactions occurred in test animals 24 and 48 hours after the end of the challenge procedure. The sensitisation rate was 0%
-No findings were observed in control animals (reaction rate: 0%).
Evaluation: According to the EEC Directive 2001/59/EEC, 6 August 2001 and the Gefahrstoffverordnung (GefStoffV) of 15 November 1999 (BGB1. I, p.2233) test conditions described, the test article "LITHARGE lead oxide" can be classified as a "non-sensitiser" since no allergic responses were observed in test animals under the experimental conditions described.
