Patches and left over test substance were removed after 24 h with washing. After 1, 24 and 48 h the skin was evaluated. The maximum non-irritant concentration of the test material was selected for the main study.

- Executive summary:
A guinea pig maximization test was conducted. The test group consisted of 20 and the control group of 10 guinea pigs. Intradermal induction was done with 3 injection pairs into different sides. The injections contained 1) Freunds complete adjuvant, 2) 5 % concentration of the test material or vehicle only for the control group and 3) 50:50 mixture of a 5 % concentration of the test material emulsified in the adjuvant or 50:50 mixture of vehicle emulsified in Freunds complete adjuvant for the control animals. The topical induction was done with 100 % test substance or vehicle for the control group. The challenge with 100 % of the test substance resulted in no reactions in any of the 20 guinea pigs both at the 24 h and 48 h observations. The animals of the control group showed no reactions either. Therefore it was concluded that the test substance was non sensitising.

The animals of the control group showed no reactions either. Therefore it was concluded that the test substance was non sensitising.
A maximization test in 25 human volunteers was conducted (supporting study, see IUCLID section 7.10.4) to test the senstising potential of the test substance. The test substance was applied on the volar forearm or back with an occlusive dressing for 5 alternate-day 48 h periods. The patch sides were pretreated with 2.5 % aqueous sodium lauryl sulfate under occlusion. The challenge side was read immediatly after patch removal and after 24 h. No volunteer showed any reaction on the skin. The test substance was not contact sensitising in humans.
Justification for classification or non-classification
