Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item was not a skin sensitiser under the test conditions of this study.
Executive summary:

In the study the test item formulated in PG was assessed for its possible skin sensitising potential. For this purpose a local lymph node assay was performed using test item concentrations of 5, 10, and 25% (w/w). The animals did not show any signs of systemic toxicity or local skin irritation during the course of the study and no cases of mortality were observed. In this study Stimulation Indices (S.I.) of 1.60, 1.06, and 1.14 were determined with the test item at concentrations of 5, 10, and 25% (w/w) in PG, respectively.

The test item was not a skin sensitiser under the test conditions of this study.
