Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Interpretation of results:
sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The skin reactions observed in response to a 50% test substance concentration in five of ten experimental animals in the challenge phase were considered indicative of sensitisation, based on the absence of any response in the control animals. These results indicate a sensitisation rate of 50 per cent.
Executive summary:

Substance is classified as Skin Sensitiser, category 1B according EU CLP as it meets the criteria for guinea pig maximisation test requiring ≥ 30 % to <60% responding at >0.1% to <= 1% intradermal induction dose.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (sensitising)
