Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:

Conclusions:
D-8 was tested for delayed hypersensitivity in the guinea-pig according to the EU Guideline B.6 and OECD 406. D-8 did not produce any evidence of delayed contact hypersensitivity.
Executive summary:

D-8 was tested for delayed hypersensitivity using the Magnusson-Kligman Test in guinea pigs. Test animals were induced by intradermal (7.5% w/w) and topical application (50% w/w) of D-8 in Alembicol 8, a coconut oil derived solvent for dermal applications. Two weeks after the induction period, the animals were challenged by dermal application of the test item. The evaluation after 24, 48 and 72 hours after removal of the test substance showed no evidence of delayed hypersensitivity caused by the test item. In conclusion, D-8 was considered non-sensitizing in contact with skin.

Endpoint:
skin sensitisation: in vitro
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
an in vitro skin sensitisation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo skin sensitisation study are available
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)

Justification for classification or non-classification

Classification, Labeling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008

The available test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. Based on this information, the substance is not considered to be classified for skin sensitisation under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, as amended for the twelfth time in Regulation (EU) No 2019/521.
