Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
THPS (75%) was assessed for skin sensitization using the Magnusson & Kligman Maximisation test (OECD 406). Fourteen out of 20 animals
challenged with the test substance were sensitized (Guest, 1994b). These data clearly demonstrate a sensitization potential for THPS (75%).
