Any other information on results incl. tables

In order to differentiate dermal reactions produced by irritation from those produced by sensitization, 20 animals (5/sex/Challenge; treated concurrently during Induction with only vehicle or FCA/water emulsion) were subjected to the same Challenge or Re Challenge procedures as the animals which received test material during the Induction exposures.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test material N-Methyldiethanolamine (CAS No: 105-59-9) was observed to be not sensitizing on guinea pigs.
Executive summary:

The skin sensitization study of N Methyldiethanolamine (CAS No: 105-59-9) was carried out in 20 guinea pigs by guinea pig maximization test. During induction animals were first induced intradermal with 5% test material in propylene glycol and dermally with 100%.following induction challenge was performed .since results at Challenge were equivocal a Re–Challenge was performed in the same manner as the Challenge, but at concentrations of 50% and 10% N–methyldiethanolamine.In order to differentiate dermal reactions produced by irritation from those produced by sensitization, 20 animals (5/sex/Challenge; treated concurrently during Induction with only vehicle or FCA/water emulsion) were subjected to the same Challenge or Re Challenge procedures as the animals which received test material during the Induction exposures.Fourteen days after the last induction exposure, the Challenge treatment was administered topically at 100%. Eighteen of the 20 animals challenged with 100% N–methyldiethanolamine exhibited clear dermal responses. Index of Sensitization at Challenge to N–methyldiethanolamine was 90%. The Severity Indices at Challenge for the test material group at 24 and 48 hours are 0.8 and 1.8, respectively, compared to 0.8 and 1.6, respectively, for the irritation control group (out of a maximum Index of 3.0). Due to the responses seen in the irritation controls, a Re–Challenge was performed at lower, less irritating concentrations. Animals were re–challenged with both 50% and 10% N–methyldiethanolamine at separate sites. Dermal evaluations were made approximately 24 and 48 hours after the removal of Challenge/Re–Challenge patches. It was observed that the test animals treated with re-challenged dose 50% and 10% N–methyldiethanolamine were free of dermal responses. The Severity indices at Re–Challenge at 24 and 48 hours were both 0.0 for both the test group and the irritation control group.

Hence the test chemical test chemical N-Methyldiethanolamine (CAS No: 105-59-9) can be considered as non-sensitizing to guinea pigs at 50% and 10% concentration.
