Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

None of the three tested concentrations of the test item reached the stimulation index of 3.

The stimulation index at a concentration of 12.5% was 1.7 The stimulation index at a concentration of 25% was 2.0 The stimulation index at a concentration of 50% was 1.9 For individual data seeTable 6in the appendix.

All animals survived throughout the test period without showing any clinical signs.

Body Weight Development

All animals showed the expected weight development, which includes a weight loss of up to 2 g throughout the study.


Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The EC3 value (derived by linear interpolation) could not be calculated as the stimulation indices of all concentrations were below 3.
Consequently, according to OECD 429 [4] the test item Raspberry Ketone as described in this report is expected to have no sensitising properties and therefore should not be regarded as a dermal sensitiser.
According to Commission Regulation (EU) No 286/2011 [9] as well as GHS (Globally Harmonized Classification System) [10] the test item Raspberry Ketone has no obligatory labelling requirement for skin sensitisation and is unclassified.
