Description of key information
The skin sensitization potential of test chemical was assessed in various experimental studies conducted on guinea pigs and humans for test chemical .The predicted data using the Danish QSAR database has also been compared with the experimental data. Based on the available data for the target 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 “Not Classified”.

- Executive summary:
Skin sensitization study of test chemical was conducted in 10 guinea pigs to determine its sensitization potential by using Magnusson and Kligman guinea pig maximization test.
The preliminary irritation tests were performed in 4 guinea pigs to determine concentrations suitable for sensitization study[induction and challenge].As a result of the preliminary studies, the concentrationchosen forskin sensitization test were0.5% for the intradermal induction and 40% and 10% for the topical induction(neck), flank challenge respectively.
During the sensitization test, 10 untreated guinea pigs were given, six 0.1ml intradermal injections are made within a 2x4cm area of the shoulder. 7 Days later sensitization was boosted by placing over the shoulder injection site a 2x4cm filter paper patch saturated with 40% in acetone. The patch test occluded with thin polythene, held in place by poroplast, and was left in place for 48 hours.
14 days after application of the shoulder patch, challenge exposure was carried out on one flank of the guinea pigs by an occlusive patch. The cup was applied to shaved flank and held in place by Poroplast wound around the trunk. 24 hours later the patch was removed, the reaction being scored at 24, 48 hours subsequently. One week later, the challenge exposure was repeated on the other flank
None of the guinea pigs had showed positive results when re-challenged at concentration of 10% in acetone. Thus, it can be concluded that thetest chemicalwas considered to be not sensitizing on skin of guinea pigs.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
Various studies has been investigated for the test chemical to observe the potential for skin sensitization to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments performed on guinea pigs and humans for test chemical.The predicted data using the Danish QSAR database has also been compared with the experimental data and summarized as below;
Skin sensitization study of test chemical was conducted in 10 guinea pigs to determine its sensitization potential by using Magnusson and Kligman guinea pig maximization test. The preliminary irritation tests were performed in 4 guinea pigs to determine concentrations suitable for sensitization study[induction and challenge].As a result of the preliminary studies, the concentration chosen for skin sensitization test were 0.5% for the intradermal induction and 40% and 10% for the topical induction(neck), flank challenge respectively. During the sensitization test, 10 untreated guinea pigs were given, six 0.1ml intradermal injections are made within a 2x4cm area of the shoulder. 7 Days later sensitization was boosted by placing over the shoulder injection site a 2x4cm filter paper patch saturated with 40% in acetone. The patch test occluded with thin polythene, held in place by poroplast, and was left in place for 48 hours. 14 days after application of the shoulder patch, challenge exposure was carried out on one flank of the guinea pigs by an occlusive patch. The cup was applied to shaved flank and held in place by Poroplast wound around the trunk. 24 hours later the patch was removed, the reaction being scored at 24, 48 hours subsequently. One week later, the challenge exposure was repeated on the other flank None of the guinea pigs had showed positive results when re-challenged at concentration of 10% in acetone. Thus, it can be concluded that the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing on skin of guinea pigs.
Further, a Human maximization test was carried out in 25 volunteers to determine skin sensitization potential caused by the chemical. Each subject was treated with 1% of test chemical in petrolatum dermally and later observed for any signs of contact allergy. None of the volunteer showed any signs of contact sensitization. Hence the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing to the skin of human volunteers.
The overall results were further supported by the predicted Danish QSAR study. According to Danish QSAR database, skin sensitization effects were estimated by using four different models i.e, Battery, Leadscope, SciQSAR and CASE Ultra for test chemical. Based on estimation, no Allergic Contact Dermatitis effects were observed when test chemical was exposed to human and guinea pig skin. Hence, the test chemical can be considered as not sensitizing to skin.
All these studies lead to a conclusion that Test chemical is indeed not sensitizing to skin. Hence, comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, Test chemical can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
The skin sensitization potential of test substance observed in various studies. From the results obtained from these studies it is concluded that the test chemical is not likely to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non-skin sensitizer.
