- RANGE FINDING TESTS
A. Concentration for intradermal induction
4 guinea pigs were treated with 0.1 ml/injection site using concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1 and 5 % v/v test item in arachis oil.
The highest concentration that caused only mild to moderate skin irritation was selected.
B. Concentration for topical application
2 guinea pigs were treated with undiluted test material and three preparations of the test material (75, 50, 25 % v/v test item in arachis oil) plus FCA. Animals were found dead 48 hours after.
2 additional guinea pigs were treated two preparations of the test material (100 and 25 % or 75 and 50 % v/v test item in arachis oil). Systemic toxicity effects were noted, therefore 2 additional animals were treated with two lower test item concentration (10 and 1 % or 5 and 2 %). The highest concentration that caused only mild to moderate skin irritation was selected.
C. Concentration for topical challenge
2 guinea pigs were treated with four preparations of the test material (2, 1, 0.5 and 0.1 % v/v in arachis oil).
The highest non-irritant concentration and one lower concentration were selected for challenge stage.

One test group animal was humanely killed on day 21 due to large open wound. The absence of the animal was considered not to affect the purpose or integrity of the study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified, according to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008)
- Conclusions:
- The test substance did not show sensitising effects on test animals.
- Executive summary:
The Guinea Pig Maximisation Test was performed according to OECD 406 (1992). A total of 27 animals were used, 15 for the main study (10 test and 5 control) and 12 for the primary study. The induction phase was accomplished by both intradermal and epicutaneous application. In the challenge phase, the test substance resulted in a sensitisation rate of 0 %, when tested at the maximum testable epidermal applications of 0.5 and 1 % v/v test article.
According to regulation EC 1278/2008 (CLP) the substance does not meet the criteria for classification, since the sensitisation rate is lower than 30 %.
Conclusion
Not skin sensitizing
