Any other information on results incl. tables

In a Guinea Pig Maximization Test the test substance was examined in female guinea pigs for its skin sensitizing properties. The intradermal induction was performed using a 5% test item concentration, and the topical induction was performed with a 50% test item concentration. The test item was formulated in polyethylene glycol 400 to yield a solution. After the intradermal induction the animals in the control group and in the test item group showed strong effects up to encrustation at the injection sites of the first induction. The challenge using a 25% test item formulation led to no skin effects in the treatment group and the control group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
In summary, by comparing the results in the treatment group and in the control group under the conditions of the maximization test and with respect to the evaluation criteria the test item therefore exhibits no skin-sensitization potential.
