Description of key information
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Skin sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- adverse effect observed (sensitising)
- Additional information:
The study was under the guideline OECD TG 429 under GLP to assess the skin sensitisation potential of the test material in the CBA/CaOlaHsd mouse following topical application to the dorsal surface of the ear. Based on the preliminary test, the concentrations selected for the main test were 0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% v/v. Groups of five mice were treated with the undiluted test item or the test item at concentrations of 75%, 50% or 25% v/v in acetone/olive oil 4:1. The preliminary screening test suggested that the test item would not produce systemic toxicity or excessive local irritation at the highest suitable concentration. The mice were treated by daily application of 25 µL of the appropriate concentration of the test item to the dorsal surface of each ear for three consecutive days (Days 1, 2, 3). At test termination, five hours after administration of 3HTdR, the test organisms were humanly euthanized. For each individual animal of each group the draining auricular lymph nodes were excised and processed. For each individual animal 1 mL of PBS was added to the lymph nodes. Following appropriate preparation,3HTdR incorporation was measured by β-scintillation counting and the number of radioactive disintegrations per minute (dpm) was measured. The proliferation response of lymph node cells was expressed as the number of radioactive disintegrations per minute per animal and as the ratio of3HTdR incorporation into lymph node cells of test nodes relative to that recorded for the control nodes. The substance was regarded as sensitising if at least one concentration of the substance resulted in a 3-fold or greater increase in3HTdR incorporation compared to control values. Any substance failing to produce a 3-fold or greater increase in3HTdR incorporation was classified as non-sensitising. In the main test, there were no deaths or signs of systemic toxicity, and body weights were comparable to controls. A stimulation index (SI) of more than 3 was noted at the 25, 50, 75 and 100% test concentration groups. The 25% v/v generated a SI = 3.01. Accordingly, the test material was considered to be sensitising under the conditions of the test. The EC3 value was calculated by log-linear extrapolation to be 24.8%. Under the conditions of this study, the test substance would be considered to be classified as skin sensitizer (Category 1B) under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
Migrated from Short description of key information:
Skin sensitisation: sensitising, EC3 24.8% female mice, OECD 429, Harlan Laboratories Ltd. 2015

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
The substance meets classification criteria under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 for skin sensitisation category 1B.
The weight of evidence indicates that the substance has a low frequency of occurrence in humans and/or low to moderate potency in animals (EC3 >2%) and can be presumed to have the potential to produce sensitisation in humans via the dermal route.
