In vivo (LLNA)

Cellular proliferation data / Observations:
None

Any other information on results incl. tables

No skin reactions were observed in any D-523 treated animals during the induction period. 24 and 48 hours after the challenge application with D-523, any skin reactions were observed neither in the sensitised animals with D-523 nor in the D-523 control animals.

In the DNCB sensitised group, slight to moderate erythema and slight sweeling were observed in all animals after the second induction. Moderate erythema and slight to moderate swelling were observed in all animals after the third induction. 24 hours after the challenge application with DNCB, slight to moderate erythema and slight swelling were observed in all animals. Slight erythema was observed in all animals and slight swelling was observed in 3 animals 48 hours after challenge. No skin reactions were observed in the DNCB control group 24 and 48 hours after the challenge with DNCB. Thus, it was shown that DNCB was a definite skin sensitizer and that the test systems worked properly.

From the results, it was concluded that D-523 is not a skin sensitiser.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test substance FAT 40554 is non sensitiser in animals.
Executive summary:

A study was performed to determine the skin sensitisation potential of FAT 40554 in guinea pigs according to EU Method B.6 (Skin Sensitisation). Skin sensitisation test with D-523 was conducted in male guinea pigs by using Buehler's method.

A dose of 0.5g of the test material was topically applied for induction to the flank of each animal with a lint patch once a week, 3 times in total with the time interval of 1 week. 2 weeks after the last treatment, the animals were challenged with the test material in the same manner as the induction treatment. Any allergic reactions were not observed 24 and 48 hours after the challenge in the animals sensitised with the test material.

On the other hand, well defined skin reactions such as erythema and swelling were observed in the animals treated with a positive control, 2,4 -dinitrochlorobenzene.

Based on the above findings, it was concluded that D-523 is not a skin sensitiser.
