Description of key information

The skin sensitization potential of test chemical was assessed in various experimental studies conducted on human subjects. Based on the available data for the test chemical and supporting studies, it can be concluded that the test chemical is unable to cause skin sensitization and thus can be considered as not sensitizing. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “non Skin Sensitizer”.

Executive summary:

Various studies have been reviewed to evaluate the degree of dermal sensitization caused by the test chemical in living organisms. These include in vivo experimental studies performed on humans for the test chemicals. The results are summarized below:

Human maximization test was performed to evaluate the dermal sensitization potential of the test chemical on 702 contact dermatitis patients. The test material was introduced to the subjects by finn chambers applied on the back using Scanpor tape for 48 h.

No positive skin sensitization reactions were observed. Hence, the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing to human skin.

The above results are further supported by a study performed to determine the degree of contact dermatitis caused when human volunteers were exposed to the test chemical.

49 atopic and 56 nonatopic patients were applied 10% aqueous solution of the test chemical under occlusive conditions and observed for 20 minutes.

No immediate (non immunological contact urticaria) reactions were observed. Hence, the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing to skin.

Based on the available data , it can be concluded that the test chemical can be considered to be not sensitizing to skin. Thus it can be further classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

The skin sensitization potential of test substance were observed in various studies. The results obtained from these studies concluded that the chemical is not likely to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non-skin sensitizer.
