- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate was not sensitising in this study.
- Executive summary:
In a dermal sensitisation study similar to OECD guideline 406 with 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate, 20 female Pirbright white guinea pigswere tested using the method of method of Magnusson & Kligman (Guinea Pig Maximisation Test).
Intradermal induction was performed with 5% in propylene glycol, epicutaneous induction with 5% in vaseline, challenge with 1% in propylen glycol. The animals were not pretreated to generate local irritation before epicutaneous induction.
After challenge no visible changes of the treated skin sites were observed in the test and control group animals 24 and 48 h after patch removal (= grade 0).
The test material produced a response in 0% of animals. According to CLP, EU GHS (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), a response of at least 30% of the test animals of an adjuvant type guinea pig test method for skin sensitisation is considered as positive.
Therefore 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate is not a dermal sensitiser in this study.

- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate was not a dermal sensitiser in this study.
- Executive summary:
In a dermal sensitisation study according to OECD guideline 406 (1981) with 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate, female Pirbright white guinea pigs (6/group) were tested using the Open epicutaneous test (Klecak, G., Geleick, H. & Frey, J.R., J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 28, 53-64 (1977)).
20 open epidermal inductions as well as challenge and rechallenge were performed with 10 and 30% test substance in ethanol. In a preliminary study the minimal irritating dose level was determined to be 30%, the maximum non irritating dose level was 10%.
During the induction period weak erythema or edema was observed in 2/6 animals from day 8 and in 1/6 animals in day 19 in the group treated with 10% test substance. Weak to moderateerythema and/or edema was observed during the induction period in all animals of thegroup treated with 30% test substance.
The first challenge with 30% test substance provoked weak dermal effects (grade 1) in up to 33% of the animals of the treatment groups and up to 17% of the animals of the control group. The first challenge with 10% test substance provoked weak dermal effects (grade 1) in up to 17% of the animals in both, treatment and control groups.
In the second challenge neither the 10% nor the 30% dilution of the test substance provoked any dermal effects.
According to Klecak (1977), a substance is considered allergenic when at least 25% of the animals showed positive reactions with non-irritant concentrations used for challenge.
Since no increased dermal alterations were observed in the animals of the treatment groups compared with the animals of the control groups after the first and second challenge, 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate is considered to be not sensitising in this study.

No death occurred in the study. There was no significant difference in body weight gain between the treatment and the control groups.
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
Two studies are available for this substance.
1) In a dermal sensitisation study, 20 female Pirbright white guinea pigs were tested using the method of method of Magnusson & Kligman (Guinea Pig Maximisation Test). The test was conducted in GLP conditions.
Intradermal induction was performed with 5% test substance in propylene glycol, with and without adjuvant. Epicutaneous induction was performed with 5% in vaseline, and challenge with 1% in propylen glycol. The animals were not pretreated to generate local irritation before epicutaneous induction.
After challenge no visible changes of the treated skin sites were observed in the test and control group animals 24 and 48 h after patch removal (= grade 0).
The test material produced a response in 0% of animals. Therefore 3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronateis not a dermal sensitiser in this study.
2) In a dermal sensitisation study according to OECD guideline 406 , female Pirbright white guinea pigs (6/group) were tested with the registered substance using the Open epicutaneous test (Klecak, G., Geleick, H. & Frey, J.R., J. Soc. Cosmet. Chem. 28, 53-64 (1977)).
20 open epidermal inductions as well as challenge and rechallenge were performed with 10 and 30% test substance in ethanol. In a preliminary study the minimal irritating dose level was determined to be 30%, the maximum non irritating dose level was 10%.
During the induction period weak erythema or edema was observed in 2/6 animals from day 8 and in 1/6 animals in day 19 in the group treated with 10% test substance. Weak to moderateerythema and/or edema was observed during the induction period in all animals of thegroup treated with 30% test substance.
The first challenge with 30% test substance provoked weak dermal effects (grade 1) in up to 33% of the animals of the treatment groups and up to 17% of the animals of the control group. The first challenge with 10% test substance provoked weak dermal effects (grade 1) in up to 17% of the animals in both, treatment and control groups.
In the second challenge neither the 10% nor the 30% dilution of the test substance provoked any dermal effects.
According to Klecak (1977), asubstance is considered allergenic when at least 25% of the animals showed positive reactions with non-irritant concentrations used for challenge.
Since no increased dermal alterations were observed in the animals of the treatment groups compared with the animals of the control groups after the first and second challenge,3,5,5-Trimethyl-ethyl capronate is considered to be not sensitising in this study.
considering the two studies in a weight of evidence approach, the substance is considered to be not sensiter.

- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and to the GHS.
Self-classification:
Based on the available data, the substance is not classified for Skin Sensitization.
No direct scientific data are available on the substance to address respiratory sensitisation.
