Concentration / amount:
0.5 ml of the test substance diluted at 50%
Day(s)/duration:

Adequacy of challenge:
not specified
No. of animals per dose:
Thirty guinea-pigs (15 males and 15 females) were allocated to 2 groups : a control group (5 males and 5 females) and a treated group (10 males and 10 females)
Details on study design:
The sensitization potential of the test substance was evaluated after a 10 days induction period, during which the animals were treated with the vehicle (control group) or the test substance (treated group).
After a 15 days rest period, a challenge cutaneous application of 0.5ml of the vehicle (left flank) and the test substance diluted at 50% (right flank) was administered to all animals. The substsances were held in contact with the skin for 24h by means of an occlusive dressing. The cutaneous reactions were evaluated at the challenge application site, 24 and 48h after removal of the dressing.
Positive control substance(s):
no

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
According to the maximization method of magnusson and kligman, no cutaneous reactions due to any sensitization process of the substance sodium undec-10-enoate (in a 33.2% aqueous solution) were observed in the guinea-pig.
Executive summary:

The skin sensitization study was performed according to the OECD 409 guideline.

The substance is considered as non sensitizer in the guinea pig.
