Administrative data

Endpoint:
skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
17 January to 16 February 1995
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
LumiNova G and LumiNova BG are both inorganic substances comprising of > 99% aluminium strontium oxide but in slightly different proportions, they are both doped with dysprosium and europium and have negligible impurities. They are therefore considered to be very similar in physical and chemical characteristics and suitable for using in a one-to-one scenario.

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
LumiNova G and LumiNova BG are both inorganic substances comprising of > 99% aluminium strontium oxide but in slightly different proportions, they are both doped with dysprosium and europium and have negligible impurities. They are therefore considered to be very similar in physical and chemical characteristics and suitable for using in a one-to-one scenario.

Flash point

Waived

Waived

Flash point is a property relevant to liquids and low melting point solids and so is waived in accordance with Section 2 of annex XI of the REACH regulation.

Auto flammability

Waived

Waived

Undertaking this study is unjustified because the test substance is inorganic with a melting point > 1300°C.

Flammability

Waived

Waived

Undertaking this study is unjustified because the test substance is inorganic with a melting point > 1300°C.

Explosiveness

Waived

Waived

In accordance with Column 2 adaptation statement of REACH Annex VII, information requirement section 7.11, this study does not need to be conducted based on a structural assessment of the substance. Examination of the structure indicates that there are no groups associated with explosive properties.
