Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Platinum dinitrate failed to induce skin sensitisation in an OECD Test Guideline 406 GPMT, to GLP, in which a group of ten guinea pigs were dermally challenged with 0.5 or 1% of the test compound following a two stage induction with 1% by intradermal injection and 5% applied topically.
Executive summary:

The ability of platinum dinitrate to induce contact sensitisation was assessed in a guinea pig maximisation test (GPMT), conducted according to OECD Test Guideline 406 and to GLP, using groups of 10 test and 5 control animals.

 

Guinea pigs were induced with 1% by intradermal injection, followed one week later by a second induction by topical application of 5% of the test substance under a 48-hr occlusive patch. Control animals were similarly treated but without the test substance. Challenge doses of 0.5 or 1% were applied under an occlusive patch for 24 hr, three weeks after the start of induction, to both test and control animals. These doses were selected after a preliminary range-finding study to determine irritation. Scoring of the treated areas was carried out 24 and 48 hr after removal of the patches.

 

No positive reactions were observed in the test or control animals on examination at 24 and 48 hr after removal of the challenge patches. Platinum dinitrate was not a contact sensitiser in this GPMT.

 

Based on the results of this study, no classification for skin sensitisation is required according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
