Please note that although the substance is stated as the mono-constituent substance 2-(7-Isopropyl-5-methylbicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-en2yl)-1,3-dioxolane in the report, analytical data on the same batch shows that the test substance is in fact the multi-constituent substance Reaction mass of 2-(7-isopropyl-5(6)-methylbicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-en-2-yl)-1,3-dioxolane and 2-(8-isopropyl-5(6)-methylbicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-en-2-yl)-1,3-dioxolane.

Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
The substance was applied undiluted as well as dissolved in ethanol at concentrations of 30, 10, 3, 1, 0.3, 0.1 and 0.03% in order to establish a dose response curve which would permit the determination of the minimal irritating and the maximal tolerated concentrations on an "all or none basis". The minimal irritant concentration was defined as the lowest one causing mild erythema in at least 25% of an animal group. The maximal non irritant concentration was defined as the highest one not causing macroscopic reactions in any of the animals of the group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
In a sensitisation study, an open epicutaneous test, Glycolierral was found not to be a skin sensitiser.
Executive summary:

A skin sensitisation study with Glycolierral was performed according to an open epicutaneous test method. 21 consecutive days 3, 10, 30 and 100% test material was given to 8 animals for each concentration. The highest non irritant concentration after a single and after repeated applications was 3%. Higher concentrations caused very slight to slight irritation only.

No reactions were observed at the day 21 and 35 challenge in any of the test control group animals at any of the tested concentrations.

Based on these results Glycolierral is not regarded as a skin sensitizer.
