Any other information on results incl. tables

Pre-Test

intradermal: 0.1 % were irritant, 1 % necrotic after 24 h post-application

dermal: 10 % not irritant after 24 h post-application, 25 % were necrotic.

Main test

No clinical signs, no mortalities, normal body-weight gain.

After induction, irritation in the control group and necrosis in treated group were observed.

No cutaneous reaction (scores 0) was observed at 24 and 48 h after dermal challenge at the maximum mon-irritant concentration.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study, the test substance was not sensitising
Executive summary:

A guinea pig maximisation test was performed according to OECD guideline 406 with 5 animals per sex in the control group and 10 per sex in the treatment group. Intradermal induction was performed on day 1 of study with 0.1 mL of 0.1 % dilution of the test substance in the vehicle isotonic saline. On day 8, epicutaneous induction was done with 0.5 mL of 1 % test substance dilution. Challenge occured at day 22 of study with 0.5 mL of a 10 % test substance in vehicle for 24 h. Cutaneous reactions were scored 24 and 48 h after the end of this treatment. No clinical signs or deaths were observed, and no cutaneous reactions occured.

The positive control DNCB showed positive results in this test system.

Under the conditions of this study, the test substance was considered to be non-senstising.
