Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test substance was a mild skin sensitizer under the test conditions but does not require labeling as skin sensitizer under EU criteria.
Executive summary:

The cutaneous allergenic potential of THL-PE salt was assessed using the Magnusson-Kligman method carried out on Harley Albino guinea pigs (acc. to OECD 406). Fifteen femals and fifteen males were assigned to the study. At challenge, erythma was absent to moderate on the test article site and absent on the vehicle dose site. 2 of 20 animals were observed to have a redness score of 1 at the 24 hour observation period; 3 of 20 animals had a redness score of 1 at the 48 hour observation period. The test substance was considered a mild sensitiser under the test conditions but does not require labeling as a skin sensitizer under EU criteria.
