Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Non-sensitizing effects were known in maximisation test of chemical 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS No: 122-72-5) exposed to 25 human volunteers.
Executive summary:

 A Human maximization test was carried out in 25 adult male patients to assess the sensitization potential of 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS No: 122-72-5).

 

In the induction phase of a maximization study,an 8% (5520 µg/ cm2) concentration of 3-phenylpropyl acetate was applied under occlusion for five alternate day, 48 h periods to the forearm of 25 adult male patients. Following a 10 day rest period, a challenge concentration of 8% 3-phenylpropyl acetate was applied under occlusion for 48 h to a different site. The induction application was preceded by a 24 h treatment with 5% sodium lauryl sulfate and the challenge dose was preceded by a 1 h application of 10% sodium lauryl sulfate. Scoring was done upon patch removal and 24 h thereafter.

 

Since non sensitizing effects were observed after 24 hours in all the patients, the test chemical 3- Phenylpropyl acetate (CAS No: 122-72-5) was considered to be non-sensitizing on human skin.
