Any other information on results incl. tables

The SI was 2.72 at 5% concentration, 2.92 at 10%, and 2.31 at 25%. The sensitivity of the test

system was shown by the positive control, HCA at 25%, for which the SI was 6.38.

Coumarin with the purity of 99.9% has been shown to be able to elicit allergic contact reactions

in individuals patch tested to a 2% dilution.

The test substance has not been identified by batch number with an associated chemical analysis.

The data submitted does not cause the SCCP to change the Opinion “Fragrance allergy in

consumers doc n°SCCNFP/0017/98.
