Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not sensitizing
- Conclusions:
- The test chemical at a concentration of 0.2 % was tested in 108 adult panelists by 24-hour in occlusive patch test .No sensitization observed . Hence the test chemical was considered to be non-sensitizing in any 108 panelists.
- Executive summary:
A skin sensitization test was observed in 108 (70 females, 38 males) to determine their skin response to a cream containing 0.2 percent test chemical. The method used was a modification of the repeated insult patch test. A 24-hour occlusive patch to the upper arm was applied every other day for 3 weeks (nine induction applications), a 2-week rest, followed by a 24-hour occlusive challenge patch. After the challenge exposure no sensitization was observed in any subject. Therefore the test chemical was considered to be non-sensitizing to human skin.
