Principles of method if other than guideline:
On day 7, the 24-hour scoring interval for all test males and females was performed at 25 hours 1 minute to 25 hours and 20 minutes following chamber removal. Animal No. G1944/F was not shaved on day -1 but prior to dosing (day 0) and allowed to rest for aproximately 30 minutes prior to dosing. The animal room relative humidity (31-73%) was outside the preferred range (30-70%) on one occasion during the study. These deviations had no impact on the validity of the study or the interpretation of the study results.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The test material is not considered to be a skin sensitiser under the conditions of this test
Executive summary:

In lin with OCED Guideline 209, the dermal sensitisation potential of AL305B was evaluated in guinea pigs. Ten male and 10 female animals were topically treated with 100% AL305B once per week for three consecutive weeks. Following an approximate two-week rest-period, a challenge was performed where 20 test and 10 previously untreated animals were topically treate with 10% w/w AL305B. Following a further two-week rest period, the 20 test and 10 previously untreated aniamls were topically treated with 25% and 10% w/w AL305B.

Under the conditions of this test, AL305B does not meet the criteria to be considered a sensitiser.
