Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: sensitizing
Conclusions:
The test material 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CAS No: 634-93-5) was considered to be sensitizing to the skin of guinea pigs.
Executive summary:

Skin sensitization study was conducted on guinea pigs for test chemical 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CAS No: 634-93-5) to determine its sensitization potential.

 

When the guinea pigs were treated with test chemical, moderate skin sensitization was observed in treated guinea pigs.

 

Therefore the chemical 2,4,6-trichloroaniline (CAS No: 634-93-5) was considered to be sensitizing to the skin of guinea pigs.
