Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- The sensitivity of the experimental technique is regularly assessed using a known moderate sensitizer. In a recent study performed under the experimental conditions of the testing laboratory, the strain of guinea pigs used showed a satisfactory sensitisation response in 100 % of the animals.

Any other information on results incl. tables
In the control group, a discrete erythema was observed on the right flank (test item application) of 3/10 animals at the 24-hour reading and persisted in one of them, associated with a dryness of the skin, at the 48-hour reading.
In the treated group, on the right flank, a discrete erythema (grade 1) was noted in 5/20 animals at the 24-hour reading; at the 48-hour reading, a moderate erythema (grade 2) was observed in 2/20 animals. A dryness of the skin was also noted in 1/20 and 2/20 animals at the 24- and 48-hour readings, respectively.
Conclusion:
The higher number of animals demonstrating cutaneous reactions (5/20, corresponding to 25 %) in the 24-hour reading have to be ascribed to the irritant character of the test substance and must be considered as local irritation reaction. Even this number does not exceed the threshold of 30% positive reactions, demanded by the underlying OECD guideline for sensitisation tests with adjuvant, required to consider a test substance as sensitising.
After 48 hours, only 2/20 animals (10%) with cutaneous reactions remain, which have to be considered as sensitised.
Under the experimental conditions chosen, using the maximisation method of Magnusson and Kligman, the test item finally induced cutaneous reactions in 2/20 (10%) guinea pigs. According to the criteria of Council Directive 67/548/EEC (DSD) and the CLP regulation the test item does not need to be classified as sensitising to the skin.
