Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Executive summary:
3,5,5- trimethylhexanol was tested in a maximisation study for its skin sensitising potential in 25 healthy volunteers. The test substance (8% in petrolatum) was applied to the skin for 48 hours under an occlusive dressing. No sensitisation reactions were noted (Belsito et al. 2010; p. S33 and Table 10 on p. S41). A synopsis of the study is available (Kligman1977).
The study is considered to be reliable and suitable for assessment of this endpoint.
