Any other information on results incl. tables

1 animal of the test group was sacrificed prior to first challenge as it suffered from a broken leg due to being trapped in the cage floor.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study, 2.5% Vetyvert Bourbon induced only little and mild skin reactions at all four challenges. A maximum sensitisation rate of 22.2% was calculated for the first readings at the second (rechallenge) and third challenge. The control groups did not show any positive skin reactions. Based on these results the substance does not need to be classified as a sensitiser based on the criteria outline in Annex I of 1272/2008/EC and Annex VI of 67/548/EEC.
Executive summary:

This guinea pig maximisation test (GPMT) was performed to study the sensitising potential of Vetyvert Bourbon. The methods used resemble those outlined in OECD 406, except for the control groups used. Both an untreated (no induction, only challenge similar to test group) and treated (induction - without test substance - and challenge similar to test group) control group was included. Test group contained 10 animals, control groups contained 4 (different) animals per challenge. Challenges were performed with 2.5% Vetyvert Bourbon in ethanol.

1 animal was sacrificed prior to first challenge as it suffered from a broken leg due to being trapped in the cage floor. No positive skin reactions were observed in any of the controls at all of the four challenges. At first challenge, no positive skin response were observed in the test group (at both readings). At second (rechallenge) and third challenge, 2 and 1 out of 9 animals showed positive reactions at the 24 hour and 48 hour readings, respectively. At fourth challenge, at both readings 1 out of 9 animals showed a positive skin reaction.

Under the conditions of this study, 2.5% Vetyvert Bourbon induced only little and mild skin reactions at all four challenges. A maximum sensitisation rate of 22.2% was calculated for the first readings at the second (rechallenge) and third challenge. The control groups did not show any positive skin reactions. Based on these results the substance does not need to be classified as a sensitiser based on the criteria outline in Annex I of 1272/2008/EC and Annex VI of 67/548/EEC.
