Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test material 1,2,3-Propanetricarboxylic acid, 2-hydroxy-, tri-C14-15-alkyl esters can be considered as non sensitising under the conditions described.
Executive summary:

1,2,3-Propanetricarboxylic acid, 2-hydroxy-, tri-C14-15-alkyl esters was tested in a guinea pig maximization test according to OECD Guideline 406.

30 female guinea pigs were used, 10 as control group and 20 were treated with the test material. The test material was dissolved in sesam seed oil at a concentration of 100 mg/ml for induction. During the induction phase the test group animals were first treated with 3 double intradermal injections as follows: 1st: Freud's complete adjuvant (FCA) in distilled water (1:1), 2nd: test material in sesame seed oil, 3rd: test material in sesame seed oil and FCA (1:1). The 10 control animals received the same pairs of injections but in the 2nd injection only sesame seed oil was used.

After 7 days of intradermal injections the test material was applied undiluted for a period of 48 hours under an occlusive dressing.The same treatment was used on the 10 control animals using only sesame seed oil.

21 days after the beginning of treatment a challenge phase was performed by applying undiluted test material on the left side, and sesame seed oil on the right side for 24 hours under occlusive dressings for both test group and control group animals.

24, 48 and 72 hours after the beginning of the challenge application the animals were observed for erythema and oedema. No signs of erythema or oedema were observed in any of the animals.

Therefore the test material 1,2,3-Propanetricarboxylic acid, 2-hydroxy-, tri-C14-15-alkyl esters can be considered as non sensitizing.
