Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Key study: Human repeated insult patch test (HRIPT) using the modified Draize procedure (Medeiros A M, 1999). DUP was found not to be a sensitizer for human skin.
Data waiving: In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, an in vitro skin sensitization study does not need to be conducted since an in vivo study on skin sensitisation is available.

- Interpretation of results:
- other: No category (CLP Regulation EC no. 1272/2008)
- Conclusions:
- DUP was found without skin sensitization potential in a human repeated insult patch test (HRIPT).
- Executive summary:
Diundecyl phthalate was tested in a 104-person panel human repeated insult patch test (HRIPT) using the modified Draize procedure. Undiluted 100% DUP was used for the induction and challenge phases based upon a 24-h occluded irritation test on 15 panelists. The induction phase consisted in 9 applications of the test material to the same site, with a contact period of 24 h per application, and the challenge phase consisted in 1 application of 24 h to a naive site located away from the application site. Under the conditions of this HRIPT, no evidence of dermal irritation or sensitization was observed in the 104-person panel. These HRIPT data provide evidence for the lack of experimental skin sensitization potential for DUP in humans.
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vitro
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- an in vitro skin sensitisation study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo skin sensitisation study are available
- Justification for type of information:
- JUSTIFICATION FOR DATA WAIVING
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the study does not need to be conducted since an in vivo study on skin sensitisation is available.
