Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Method

Type of population:
general
Ethical approval:
other: informed consent contract signed
Subjects:
200 individuals selected from local population.
Clinical history:
Absence of skin disease capable of confusing skin reactions was confirmed.
Controls:
Not required
Route of administration:
dermal
Details on study design:
Discs moistened with an aqueous 10% solution of test substance placed on upper arm sites and covered with occlusive tape. Dressings removed after 24h, test sites scored for reaction. Unless reaction seen, test applications repeated at the same site 24-48h later. A total of 15 applications made in this way (Monday - Wednesday - Friday each week for 5 consecutive weeks).
After a 2-week rest period, each volunteer was challenged using the same dermal patch procedure, and skin reactions were scored on patch removal plus 24 a d 48h later.

Results and discussion

Results of examinations:
No visible skin reactions were observed in any of the 200 volunteers tested, either following any of the 15 induction treatments or after challenge.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Based on the complete absence of effect in 200 volunteers, the report predicts with 95% certainty that 98.17% of a general human population will not be sensitised by repeated skin application of the test substance.
