Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Skin sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Additional information:

In the key study, a non-guideline skin sensitization study conducted according to an internal Eastman Kodak Company method in which 10 guinea pigs were induced with injection of 1% methyl isopropyl ketone using the footpad technique and challenged 7 days later via dermal application, there was no increased incidence of erythema or edema when compared to the negative control.

Respiratory sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)

Justification for classification or non-classification

No evidence of a sensitization response was observed when groups of guinea pigs were immunized with methyl isopropyl ketone using the footpad technique and challenged seven days later via dermal application. Based on a weight-of-the-evidence assessment, methyl isopropyl ketone is not classified for “Skin Sensitization” according to GHS.
