Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Skin sensitisation

Based on the result obtained from the studies available for the structurally similar read across chemicals, it can be concluded that the test chemical cannot cause skin sensitization and thus cannot be considered as skin sensitizing.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Executive summary:

The skin sensitization potential was assessed based on the available results from the various test chemicals.These studies have been summarized as below -

 

A Human maximization test was conducted for the given test chemical on 24 volunteers to assess its skin sensitization potential. None of the volunteers had developed any signs of skin sensitization. Hence the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing to the skin of human volunteers.

 

The above study was supported with another Human maximization test carried out in 25 volunteers to determine skin sensitization potential caused by the chemical. Each subject was treated with 4% of test chemical in petrolatum dermally and later observed for any signs of contact allergy. None of the volunteer showed any signs of contact sensitization. Hence the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing to the skin of human volunteers.

 

Based on the result obtained from the studies available for the structurally similar read across chemicals, it can be considered that the test chemical cannot cause skin sensitization and thus cannot be considered as skin sensitizing.

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