Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In vivo test system

Test animals

Species:
mouse
Strain:
CBA
Sex:
female
Details on test animals and environmental conditions:
Species: Mouse, CBA strain, inbred, SPF-Quality. Recognized by the international guidelines as the recommended test system (e.g. OECD, EC, EPA).
Source: Charles River France, L' Arbresle Cedex, France
Number of animals: 30 females (nulliparous and non-pregnant), five females per group.
Age and bodyweight: Young adult animals (approx. 9-10 weeks old) were selected. Body weight variation was within +/- 20% of the sex mean.
Identification: Tail mark with marker pen.
Health inspection: A health inspection was performed prior to treatment, to ensure that the animals are in a good state of health. Special
attention was paid to the ears, which were intact and free from any abnormality.
Reliability check: The results of a reliability test with Hexylcinnamaldehyde, performed not more than 6 months previously, are summarized in
the Appendix. Similar procedures were used in the reliability test and in this study.

Details on study design:
Initially, three groups of five animals were treated with one test substance concentration per group. The highest test substance
concentration was selected from the preliminary irritation study. One group of five animals was treated with vehicle. Borderline results (SI close
to cutoff value of 3) were obtained for the initial group at 5%. In order to clarify the results at the 5% concentration, an additional group of
five animals was treated with a 5% concentration, along with a concurrent vehicle control group of five animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
No skin reactions were observed in any of the animals examined.
In conclusion, the calculated mean Sl values for the substance concentrations 2.5 and 10% did not exceed Sl 2 3. Although the mean Sl value for theinitial 5% test substance concentration exceeded Sl 2 3, this result occurred in the absence of a dose response relationship and was not confirmediin an additional test. Therefore, DCM was considered to be a non skin sensitizer.
