Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

In vivo (LLNA)

Resultsopen allclose all
Parameter:
SI
Remarks on result:
other: see Remark
Remarks:
The SI values calculated for the substance concentrations 10, 25 and 50% were 1.3, 5.1 and 3.0 respectively. These results indicate that the test substance could elicit an SI ≥ 3. The data showed a dose response and an EC3 value (the estimated test substance concentration that will give a SI =3) of 16.7% was calculated. The response of the 50% group did not follow the expected doseresponse relationship which more often seen in these kind of studies. The response might be less due to differences in skin penetration (less vehicle present), viscosity or due to underlying systemic toxicity.
Parameter:
other: disintegrations per minute (DPM)
Remarks on result:
other: The median DPM values for the experimental groups treated with test substance concentrations 10, 25 and 50% were 406, 1574 and 939 respectively. The median DPM value for the vehicle control group was 308.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information (Category 1)
Conclusions:
Based on these results:
- according to the recommendations made in the test guidelines, WAY-186478 would be regarded as skin sensitizer.
- according to the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS) of the United Nations (2007), WAY-186478 should be classified as skin sensitizer (Category 1).
- according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures, WAY-186478 should be classified as skin sensitizer (Category 1)
and labeled as H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction.
