Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
3 preliminary tests were performed with 5 animals each:
For the intradermal induction a 1% concentration of test substance in vaseline induced sufficient skin irritation.
For the epidermal induction a 50% concentration of test substance in vaseline was determined as the minimal irritating concentration.
To be able to determine the maximum non-irritating concentration for challenge treatment, intracutaneous injections of 0.1 mL FCA bilaterally of the vertebral column were made. 2 weeks later 25% and 50% test substance concentrations were applied for 24 h under plaster-covering. A 25% concentration was found to be the maximum non-irritating concentrations.

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 2 (intradermal and epicutaneous)
- Exposure period: 2nd induction: 48 h (epicutaneous exposure)
- Test groups: 20 animals, TS (intracutaneously: FCA alone (cranial application), TS in FCA, TS in vehicle, epicutaneously: 1 week after intradermal induction, occlusive conditions)
- Control group: 20, vehicle only
- Site: 1. induction: Interscapular region, 2nd induction on the same site as 1st induction
- Frequency of applications: 1st induction on day 0, 2nd induction on day 7
- Concentrations: 1% for intradermal induction, 50 % for topical induction

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: 14 days after the 2nd induction
- Exposure period: 24 hours
- Test groups: 20, TS
- Control group: 20, TS
- Site: right flank, occlusive conditions
- Concentrations: 25 % (0.2 g application volume)
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): 24 and 48 hours after exposure

Any other information on results incl. tables

Individual results were not given in tabulated form, as all skin examination were negative, both at 24 and 48 hours after challenge exposure. None of the animals showed abnormalities in clinical observations and body weight gain.
