Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Skin sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (sensitising)
Additional information:

In a guinea pig maximization test (GPMT) according to OECD TG 406 the test substance revealed a skin sensitizing potential at challenge concentrations of 0.5 and 1 %. 48 hours after the challenge skin reactions were observed in 95 % of the animals (grade 1 to 3) after 1 % test item and in 55 % of the animals (grade 1 to 2) after 0.5 % test item. 72 hours after the challenge skin reactions still persisted in most of the affected animals (Dreist and Kolb, 1993).


Migrated from Short description of key information:
The substance is sensitizing to the skin.

Justification for selection of skin sensitisation endpoint:
Only one study available

Respiratory sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available
Additional information:

This information is not available.

According to REACH Annex VII-X data on respiratory sensitisation is not required for substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 1000 tonnes or more.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Skin sensitisation

Not classified under Annex I of Directive 67/548/EEC or Annex VI-1 of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. Differing from this a skin sensitizing potential in guinea pigs detected in a GPMT leads to the following classification according to Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008: Category 1B (H317: May cause an allergic skin reaction).

Respiratory sensitisation

Not classified under Annex I of Directive 67/548/EEC. According to Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 no classification is required for respiratory sensitisation.
