Any other information on results incl. tables

Body weight gains and clinical signs:

The body weight gains of the animals were not impaired. Moreover, the treated animals showed no clinical signs of intoxication throughout the study.

Irritations during the sensitization phase:

No signs of irritation occurred during the observation period. The skin surface of the treatment group was discolored orange.

Dermal challenge treatment:

No positive skin response was observed in the control and the treatment group 24 and 48 hours after removal of the occlusive bandage. The skin-surface of the animals was discolored orange.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test item showed no sensitizing properties in the Buehler test.
Executive summary:

In a dermal sensitization study (OECD 406) with the test item 20 female Pirbright-White guinea pigs were tested using the method of Buehler. Dermal induction was performed using 0.5 g of the test item moistened with 0.5 mL deionized water. Challenge of the treatment and control group were carried out with 0.5 g of the test item moistened with 0.5 mL deionized water. Under the conditions of the present study, none of the twenty treated guinea pigs showed a positive skin response 24 hours and 48 hours after the challenge procedure. Thus, the test item is not a dermal sensitizer.
