Remarks on result:
no indication of skin sensitisation

Any other information on results incl. tables

The skin sensitization potential of 0.1% Di-(2-ethylhexyl) adipate in olive oil was determined in 10 white male guinea pigs. The test material was injected intracutaneously 3 times weekly until a total of 10 injections has been made. The first injection consisted of 0.05 mL of the test material, whereas the subsequent 9 injections consisted of 0.1 mL each. Two weeks following the tenth injection, a challenge injection was made using 0.05 mL of a 0.1% test solution. No skin sensitising potential was observed.
