Guinea pig maximization test
A study was run according to OECD guideline 406 to assess the potential of test substance to induce delayed contact hypersensitivity (skin sensitisation) in the guinea pig. The substance resulted in a sensitization rate of 100 per cent after intradermal induction with 0.5 % test item solution and epicutaneous challenge application of the test item of 25 % to the guinea pig. According to the results, the substance is considered to be sensitising in this test.
Buehler test
A study was run following OECD guideline 406, to assess the skin sensitising potential of test substance in guinea pig. The substance gave no sign of skin sensitisation, indeed 0/20 positive responses were found upon 3 inductions at 25 % in physiological saline (one application per week, occlusive application for 6 h each time) and a challenge at 25 % (2 weeks after the last induction, occlusive application for 6 h, gradings at 24 and 48 h after challenge). The negative control gave 0/10 positive responses. Consequently, the test substance was considered as devoid of a skin sensitising potential in this assay.
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
Two studies were availble, a GPMT and a Buehler test. Despite the test material was the same, conflicting evidences were found.
Experimental findings in the GPMT would imply a classification as skin sensitizer category 1A according to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), while experimental results in the Buehler assay would imply no classification.
However, the substance is listed in Annex VI of the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), with index no. 611-016-00-8 and classification as Skin Sens. 1, H317.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
