MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: SPL Standard Test Method 595.12
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: Test to control ratio greater than 3.0 indicates a positive result


TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:
-3 groups of 4 animals were treated with 50 uL test material (25 uL per ear), in a solution of ethanol/distilled water 4:1, at 5, 10 and 25 %.
- Another group was treated with ethanol/distilled water 4:1 alone.
Positive control substance(s):

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1B (indication of skin sensitising potential) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based upon the data generated, an EC3 value of 6% was calculated. Therefore, the test substance was considered to be a sensitizer under the conditions of the test. The test substance is classified as category 1 based on criteria of CLP Regulation.
