Abstract:
Objective To analyze and compare results of local lymph node assays (LLNA) between BALB/c and CBA mice.Methods 4 chemicals (2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene, eugenol, hexyl cinnamic aldehyde and isopropanol) and 3 cosmetics were applied to the dorsum of both ears of Balb/c and CBA mice for three consecutive days.BrdU solution was injected inter-peritoneally on day 5.On day 6, the bilateral draining auricular lymph nodes were excised and made into single cell suspension, the lymph cell proliferation was measured by BrdU ELISA kit.Results 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene, eugenol, hexyl cinnamic aldehyde and NO.3 perm agent pretended positive for both strains, EC1.6 values of three chemicals were found to be 0.08% (very strong), 4.02% (moderate), 6.68% (moderate) and 0.07% (very strong), 6.08% ( moderate), 8.89% ( moderate) for BALB/c and CBA mice respectively.Isopropanol, NO.1 and NO.2 cosmetics pretended to be non-sensitizers with SI <1.6 for both strains.Conclusion This study showed that BALB/c mouse was essentially equal to CBA for LLNA: BrdU-ELISA, which suggested that BALB/c mouse was a good alternative for CBA used in chemicals and cosmetics allergenic evaluation.
