Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not sensitizing
Conclusions:
C.I. Reactive Violet 5 (12226-38-9) was considered to be not sensitizing to humans.
Executive summary:

In skin sensitization study, 1813 patients were tested by maximization test to ascertain the degree of sensitization caused by C.I. Reactive Violet 5 (12226-38-9).

1813 patients aged 3 to 73 years underwent patch tests in the Allergological Department, University of Modena, Italy with the GIRDCA standard series. The dye was dispersed in 5% petrolatum, chosen after preliminary studies with 4% and 10%. Patches were applied to healthy skin of the back with Finn Chambers on Scanpor tape. The patches were removed after 3 days and reactions were read 3 hours later at 4 days. Reactions were evaluated according to ICDRG Guidelines.

However it was not known whether the sensitizing components of the reactive dye molecules are the same as those responsible for occupational IgE- mediated and contact allergy, or if they are new groups derived by the end of the dying process. Also no particular association was found between sensitization to reactive dye and sensitization to standard allergens.

Hence. C.I. Reactive Violet 5(12226-38-9)was considered to be not sensitizing to humans.
