Description of key information
Data available for the closely related read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the skin sensitization potential of the test chemical. Based on the summarized studies,it can be concluded that the testchemical is unable to cause skin sensitization and considered as not sensitizing. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

2. No data available
3. LLNA study
vehicle: acetone/olive oil (4:1 v/v)
concentration :25 µl
study design: Treatment was performed daily for 3 consecutive days. Five days after initiation of exposure all mice were injected via the tail vein with 250µl of PBS containing 20µCi of tritiatied thymidine. The mice were sacrificed 5 hours later, and draining the auricular lymph nodes were excised and pooled for each experimental group or each individual animal. The incorporation of tritiated thymidine measured by β-scintillation counting and was reported in disintegrations /minute. An SI was calculated for each chemical group as the ratio of disintegrations/minute of the treated group to the disintegrations/minute of the concurrent vehicle control group. A substance was classified skin sensitizer , if at one or more than one concentrations, it induced a three-fold or greater increase in local lymph node proliferative activity when treated with the concurrent vehicle treated controls (SI ≥3)
statistics: The approach to estimation of the relative skin sensitization potential is based on the mathematical estimation of the concentration of chemical necessary to obtain a threshold positive response (SI = 3); this is termed as the EC3 value

- Executive summary:
Data available for the closely related read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the skin sensitization potential of the test chemical. The studies are as mentioned below:
A skin sensitization study was conducted in 108 (70 females, 38 males) to determine their skin response to a cream containing 0.2 percent test chemical. The method used was a modification of the repeated insult patch test. A 24-hour occlusive patch to the upper arm was applied every other day for 3 weeks (nine induction applications), a 2-week rest, followed by a 24-hour occlusive challenge patch. After the challenge exposure no sensitization was observed in any subject. Therefore the test chemical was considered to be non-sensitizing to human skin.
The above result was supported by the guinea pig maximization test conducted to assess the dermal sensitization potential of the test chemical. 15 guinea pigs were used for the study. Guinea pigs were intradermally induced with 2.5% of the test chemical and then subjected to topically induction with 5% test chemical. After a suitable rest period, the guinea pigs were challenged with 0.5%w/v in acetone and observed for effects. No reactions were observed in 15 guinea pigs tested. Hence, the test chemical can be considered to be not sensitizing to skin.
The above results were further supported by the Mouse Local Lymphnode Assay conducted for test chemical. The LLNA was conducted on groups of CBA mice (7-12 weeks of age) by mean of topical application of chemical on the dorsum of both ears at a dose of 25µl or to an equal volume of relevant vehicle (Acetic acid in olive oil (4:1))only. Treatment was performed daily for 3 consecutive days. Five days after initiation of exposure all mice were injected via the tail vein with 250µl of PBS containing 20µCi of tritiatied thymidine. The mice were sacrificed 5 hours later, and draining the auricular lymph nodes were excised and pooled for each experimental group or each individual animal. The incorporation of tritiated thymidine measured by β-scintillation counting and was reported in disintegrations /minute. An SI was calculated as the ratio of disintegrations/minute of the treated group to the disintegrations/minute of the concurrent vehicle control group. A substance was classified skin sensitizer, if at one or more than one concentrations, it induced a three-fold or greater increase in local lymph node proliferative activity when treated with the concurrent vehicle treated controls (SI ≥3). The approach to estimation of the relative skin sensitization potential is based on the mathematical estimation of the concentration of chemical necessary to obtain a threshold positive response (SI = 3); this is termed as the EC3 value. The relative potency index of test chemical was not calculated but on the basis of classification system it was considered to be >100. Thus the test chemical was considered as non-skin sensitizer.
Based on the above summarized studies for target chemical and itsclosely related read across chemicals,it can be concluded that the testchemical is unable to cause skin sensitization and considered as non-skin sensitizer. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
The skin sensitization potential of test substance anditsclosely related read across chemicals were observed in various studies. From the results obtained from these studies it is concluded that the chemical is not likely to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non-skin sensitizer.
