- Executive summary:
In order to assess the cutaneous allergenic potential of the test substance, a Maximization-Test was performed in 15 (10 test and 5 control) female albino Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs, in accordance with OECD Guideline No. 406 and the Council Regulation (EC) No 44012008,8.6. The intradermal induction of sensitization in the test group was performed in the nuchal region with a 50 % dilution of the test item in purified water and in an emulsion of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FcA)/physiological saline. The epidermal induction of sensitization was conducted for 48 hours under occlusion with the test item at 100 % one week after the intradermal induction. The animals of the control group were intradermally induced with purifred water and FCA/physiological saline and epidermally induced with purified water under occlusion. Two weeks after epidermal induction the control and test animals were challenged by epidermal application of the test item at 15 % in purified water and purified water alone under occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were evaluated at 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing. No toxic signs were evident in the guinea pigs of the control or test group. No deaths occurred. No positive/skin reactions were observed in the control and test animals when treated with either purified water only or when treated with the test item at 15 % in purified water.
Based on the above mentioned fïndings the substance does not have to be classified and labelled as a skin sensitizer.

Maximisation test
Assay 1 (supporting study):
In order to assess the cutaneous allergenic potential of the test item, a Maximization-Test was performed in 20 (10 test and 10 control) female albino Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs, in accordance with OECD Guideline No. 406 and the Council Regulation (EC) No 440/2008, 8.6. The intradermal induction of sensitization in the test group was performed in the nuchal region with a 50 % dilution of the test item in purified water and in an emulsion of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/physiological saline. The epidermal induction of sensitization was conducted four hours under occlusion with the test item at 100 % one week after the intradermal induction, the animals of the control group were intradermally induced with purified water and FCA/physiological saline and epidermally induced with purified water under occlusion. Two weeks after epidermal induction the control and test animals were challenged by epidermal application of the test item at 75 % in water and water alone under occlusive dressing. Two weeks thereafter a scond challenge was conducted in the same way. A naive control group (control group 2) was included. Test item concentrations used were 50 and 25 %. Cutaneous reactions were evaluated at 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing. No toxic signs were evident in the guinea pigs of the control or test group. No deaths occurred. For validation of sensitivity of the Maximization-Test of B. Magnusson and A.M Kligman(1969) as well as the sensitivity of the test system used, a known sensitizer ALPHA-HEXYLCINNAMALDEHYDE was selected as a positive control. The positive control substance produced skin reactions proving the skin sensitizing property. In the test group (treated with the test item), all animals showed skin reactions after the 24 h reading and 5 animals after the 48 h reading after the first challenge (75 % test item). Two out of 5 animals of the control group 1 showed skin reactions at the 24 h and one animal at the 48 h reading after being treated with the test item at 75 %. To distinguish between sensitizing and false positive results (due to irritation) obtained from the first challenge, a second challenge was conducted. After the second challenge (59 % test item) all animals of the control group 1 showed skin reactions at the 24-and 48 h readings. The scores of the local signs were slightly more severe when compared to the first challenge. Skin reactions were also found in two out of five control group 2 animals. No effects were seen in the three groups after treatment with water only. The fact that all control 1 animals already sensitized in the first challenge showed a booster effect in incidence in the second challenge with the test item at a lower concentration and the fact that a slight booster effect in severity was observed in the test animals could imply that the reactions are more likely to be skin sensitization rather than irritation. However, the reactions observed in the naive control 2 group do not support this assumption and lead to the conclusion that the test item at 50 % is irritant. As a conclusion, the results were equivocal and further test results are necessary for evaluation of the skin sensitising property.
Assay 2 (key study):
In order to assess the cutaneous allergenic potential of the test substance, a further Maximization-Test was performed in 15 (10 test and 5 control) female albino Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs, in accordance with OECD Guideline No. 406 and the Council Regulation (EC) No 44012008,8.6. The intradermal induction of sensitization in the test group was performed in the nuchal region with a 50 % dilution of the test item in purified water and in an emulsion of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FcA)/physiological saline. The epidermal induction of sensitization was conducted for 48 hours under occlusion with the test item at 100 % one week after the intradermal induction. The animals of the control group were intradermally induced with purifred water and FCA/physiological saline and epidermally induced with purified water under occlusion. Two weeks after epidermal induction the control and test animals were challenged by epidermal application of the test item at 15 % in purified water and purified water alone under occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were evaluated at 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing. No toxic signs were evident in the guinea pigs of the control or test group. No deaths occurred. No positive/skin reactions were observed in the control and test animals when treated with either purified water only or when treated with the test item at 15 % in purified water.
Based on the above mentioned fïndings the substance does not have to be classified and labelled as a skin sensitizer.

Justification for classification or non-classification
Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified for skin sensitisation under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the twelth time in Regulation (EU) No 2019/521.
