MAIN STUDY

ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method:3H-Thymidine incorporation
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: SI > 3

TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION: Test substance was weighed and mixed with the vehicle shortly before treatment. Homogeneity was achieved by stirring with a magnetic stirrer.

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 1272/2008. The stimulation indices in the LLNA (OECD 429) did not show a dose dependent increase. No EC3 could be established. As a result the substance is not considered to be classified for skin sensitization under Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008,as amended for the seventh time in Regulation (EC) No 2015/1221.
