Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Skin sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- adverse effect observed (sensitising)
- Additional information:
Dermal sensitisation has been investigated in a maximisation test according to OECD test methods. A marked sensitisation response was observed to tetrahydrophthalic anhydride following a period of induction exposure
Migrated from Short description of key information:
Skin sensitisation: sensitising
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- adverse effect observed (sensitising)
- Additional information:
Allergic reactions of the skin and allergic respiratory reactions are known effects of occupational exposure to cyclic acid anhydrides (Concise International Chemical Assessment Document 75 - Cyclic Acid Anhydrides: Human Health Aspects,World Health Organization, 2009).

Respiratory sensitisation: sensitising
Justification for classification or non-classification
Allergic reactions of the skin and allergic respiratory reactions are known effects of occupational exposure to cyclic acid anhydrides (Concise International Chemical Assessment Document 75 - Cyclic Acid Anhydrides: Human Health Aspects,World Health Organization, 2009). This is reflected in current classification and labelling of the substance.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
