MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (intradermal and epicutaneous)
- Exposure period: 1 single injection and after one week 48 h epicutaneous occlusive application
- Test groups: injection: 0.1 mL FCA, 0.1 mL test substance, 0.1 mL test substance in FCA, epicutaneous: in petrolatum
- Control group: injection: 0.1 mL FCA, 0.1 mL vehicle, 0.1 mL vehicle in FCA, epicutaneous: in petrolatum
- Site: rectangle area (scapular region)
- Frequency of applications: one application each


B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day of challenge: two weeks after epicutaneous induction
- Exposure period: 24 h
- Test groups and control group: closed patch or open epicutaneous
- Site: back
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 h and 48 h

Challenge controls:
no
Positive control substance(s):
yes
Remarks:
test included various 1-alkyl-1,3-propione sultones
Positive control results:
The 1-alkyl-1,3-propane sultones tested concurrently were positive, indicating the sensitivity of the test system.

Remarks on result:
positive indication of skin sensitisation
Interpretation of results:
other: CLP/EU GHS criteria not met, no classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008
Conclusions:
CLP: not classified
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Additional information:

In a dermal sensitisation study (Morikawa et al., 1978) with the test item guinea pigs were tested using the method of Magnusson and Kligman (induction treatment: 1% given intracutaneously, 1% given epicutaneously; epicutaneous challenge treatment: 2%). In this study 0% of the animals treated showed a skin sensitization response.


Respiratory sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the result of the guinea pig maximisation test, 1,3-propanesultone is not subject to classification and labelling according to CLP (Regulation 1272/2008/EC).
