The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Additional information:

The following data were obtained for the Similar Substance 01. It is expected that the Target Substance will present similar skin sensitising profile. Justification for Read Across is given in Section 13 of IUCLID.

In order to evaluate the skin allergenic potential of the test item, a Local Lymph Node Assay (LLNA) was performed according to the OECD Guideline No. 429 (2002). Three dose levels from 2.5 to 100 % of test item in the vehicle (ethanol/water (50/50, v/v)) and the vehicle alone as negative control were administered to sixteen female CBA/J allocated to four groups of four animals each.

The calculated Stimulation Index were 1.1 at the two low doses and 1.59 at the high dose. Thus, the test item should not be considered as a skin sensitizer under the experimental conditions and according to the followed OECD Guideline No. 429.

Justification for classification or non-classification

SKIN SENSITISATION

In the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 a skin sensitizer is defined as “a substance that will lead to an allergic response following skin contact”. A substance classified as skin sensitiser (Category 1) may be allocated to one of the two sub-categories 1A or 1B in accordance with the criteria given in Annex I, Part 3, Table 3.4.2.

In case of animal tests, for the LLNA (OECD TG 429) the skin sensitisation potency is measured as a function of the derived EC3-values. The EC3-value is the amount of test chemical (% concentration, molar value or dose per unit area) required to elicit a stimulation index of 3 in the standard LLNA (Kimber et al. 2003). Further details are given in the corresponding OECD Test Guideline: the decision process regards a result as positive when stimulation index ≥ 3, together with consideration of dose response and where appropriate, statistical significance.

Based on the available experimental results obtained in LLNA test performed, the stimulation index values were in all dose groups < 3. Considering the aforementioned, no classification for skin sensitization is warranted under the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
