- Other: Mean body weight gain 130.5 g in test group, 137.4 g in control group = expected range
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- Classification: not sensitizing
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitizing properties of the test item were determined in a guinea pig maximization test according to OECD TG 406 (positive controls not required by 1981 guideline version). Twenty female guinea pigs were intradermally injected with a 0.5 % concentration of test item (in corn oil) and one week later epidermally exposed to a 100 % concentration of test substance (48 h patch treatment). Ten control animals were similary treated, but with vehicle alone. Two weeks after the epidermal application all animals were challenged with 100 % test substance and the vehicle (24 hour patch). Under the conditions of the test no sensitizing effects were observed in any of the 20 animals at all. Based on these results, test item should not be classified as a contact sensitizer.
