Description of key information
Data available for the structurally and functionally similar read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the skin sensitization potential of the test chemical. Based on the summarized studies,it can be concluded that the testchemical is unable to cause skin sensitization and 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:
Various studies were performed on humans and guinea pigs to assess the dermal sensitization potential of Test chemical. The studies are summarized as follows:
The patch test for test chemical was performed by peer reviewed journal in 32 patients with an established p-aminoazobenzene allergy. The test was conducted on a group of 32 patients with presumable allergic contact dermatitis and all with a positive patch teat reaction to p-aminoazobenzene (0.25% pet). The group consisted of 20 women (mean age 39.9 years) and men (mean age 46.6 years). 11 patients had previously also shown sensitization to PPD (Para-phenyldiamine). 30 patients with an allergic contact dermatitis but negative to p-aminoazobenzene and PPD were also tested with the same patch test series. A patch with test chemical was placed in small squares (about 1.0 cm2) and wetted with 1 drop of tap water, water was used to imitate the circumstances (wet hands or sweating of hands). By this procedure a slight but visible yellow stain on the skin was found at the test site after 2 days of application, indicating liberation of the dyes.The chemical did not elicit a positive patch test reaction in any one of the 32 patients’ positive to p-aminoazobenzene nor in the 30 control subjects. Hence the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing.
The above results were supported by the Draize-Shelanski repeated insult patch test conducted by authoritative database on 200 human subjects for test chemical. In this study, the chemical applied to the subjects’ volvar forearms (200 subjects) as an aqueous solution for 10 alternate days, for 24-hour periods, followed by a 14-day rest period. Challenge batches were then applied under occlusion to fresh skin sites on the subjects scapular backs for 24 hours. The colour did not produce either irritation or allergic responses during the induction phase nor contact dermatitis in the challenge period. Therefore the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing in a Draize-Shelanski repeated insult patch test conducted on 200 human subjects.
The above results were further supported by the skin sensitization study conducted according to OECD guideline 406 on guinea pigs by Magnusson and Kligman test to determine its sensitization potential of test chemical. 20 test group and 10 negative control groups were used in this study. Intradermal injections of 0.1ml Freund’s complete adjuvant in water, test chemical 1% w/v in arachis oil, and Freund’s + test chemical 1% w/v in arachis oil (1:1) into three separate sites. After 1 week, a single topical application of 0.2 – 0.3 ml test chemical 50% w/w in arachis oil under occlusion for 48 hours. On day 21 animals were challenged with 0.1-0.2 ml test chemical 25 and 10% w/w in arachis oil. No reactions were observed. Thus, from the study it can be concluded that the test substance is not a skin sensitizer.
All these studies lead to a conclusion that the 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”.

- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
The skin sensitization potential of test substance andits structurally and functionally similar read across substanceswere observed in various studies. From the results obtained from these studies it is concluded that the chemical is not likely to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non-skin sensitizer.
