Interpretation of results:
other: Not sensitising
Conclusions:
The test substance did not cause any skin response during the challenge procedure. The test substance is considered not sensitizing.
Executive summary:

This data is being read across from the source study that tested Hydrocarbons, C9-C12, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, aromatics (2-25%) based on analogue read across.

This study examined the skin sensitization potential of Dilutene M5. Groups of 10 male and 10 female guinea pigs were induced with 0.1 % w/v of test substance in corn oil intradermally. 5 male and 5 female guinea pigs served as controls. The topical induction was performed with 50% w/v of test substance in corn oil. A topical challenge was then done with 25% w/v of test substance in corn oil. Animals were then scored for dermal reactions. No reaction was seen in any animal at any time during the experiment. The test substance is not sensitizing to skin.
