Maximum concentration not causing irritating effects in preliminary test: 15 %

Evidence of sensitisation of each challenge concentration: None

Other observations: No toxic symptons were evident in the guinea pigs of the control or test group. No deaths occurred.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: EU-GHS
Conclusions:
On the basis of these results and under the experimental conditions the test substance did not appear to possess sensitising capacity.
Executive summary:

The test substance was tested to be non sensitising to the skin of guinea pigs in a GLP study according to EU Method B.6.
