Skin sensitisation
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 28th April 1994 to the 27th October 1994
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study with acceptable restrictions
- Remarks:
- Study was conducted according to OECD 406 and GLP, however, no information was provided on the purity of the test material.
- Justification for type of information:
- The REACH information requirements were revised in 2016 to endorse a battery of in vitro assays for skin sensitisation. Whilst Annex VII does not require in vivo testing for skin sensitisation, all existing available information should be evaluated, including any available animal data, in accordance with Annex VI.

- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)

- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- The Guinea Pig Maximisation Test (GPMT) (EU B.6/OECD TG 406) is considered to provide sufficient information for hazard identification.There are globally harmonised (GHS) criteria to predict skin sensitisation potency based on the GPMT. The reliable and GLP compliant in vivo GPMT was considered sufficient to fulfil the endpoint.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The Guinea Pig Maximisation Test (GPMT) (EU B.6/OECD TG 406) is considered to provide sufficient information for hazard identification. Conducted according to OECD TG 406, the reliable and GLP compliant in vivo GPMT was considered sufficient to fulfil the sensitisation endpoint for REACH Annex VII. Induction and challenge with the test item (30% in DPG) did not induce mortality, toxicity, body weight changes or alter behaviour of the albino guinea pigs tested (n=10). It can be concluded that under the conditions of the study, the test item does not present skin sensitising potential.
- Executive summary:
The Guinea Pig Maximisation Test (GPMT) (EU B.6/OECD TG 406) is considered to provide sufficient information for hazard identification. The study was chronologically subdivided into the acclimatisation period (day -5 to -1), the induction phase (day 0 to 7) with an intradermal administration of the test substance on day 0 and a dermal one on day 7, followed by a phase free from treatment (day 8 to 19) during which a hypersensitive state is developed in both phases. The dermal challenge was on day 21.
Under the test conditions, no allergic reactions of toxicological signs were observed, following administration of the test item (Group I) or the vehicle (Group II). During the experiment the body weight of all animals had a normal physiological growth. It can be concluded that under the conditions of the study, the test item does not present skin sensitising potential.
