Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
P1655 (30.4%) C10-16 alkyldimethylamine, N-Oxides did not induce sensitization in the guinea pig model.
Executive summary:

One group of 20 test animals was treated with 2% w/v of P1655 (30.4% active C10 -16 alkyldimethyl amine N-oxides) in distilled water for a period of 6 hours weekly for 3 induction exposures. The test animals and control animals were challenged with 1% w/v of P1655 in distilled water. At primary challenge, no skin reactions were observed in the test and control animals at the concentration of 1% w/v of P1655 in distilled water. Therefore, it was concluded that  30.4% C10-C16 alkyldimethylamine, N-Oxide is not a skin sensitizer.
