Main study

The results of the main study on the determination of the auto-ignition temperature of the test item are given in the table below.

 Test  Volume [µL]  Auto-ignition temperature [°C]   Ignition delay [s]  Colour of the flame  Minimum auto-ignition temperature [°C]
 Test 1  70  253  43  orange/blue  229
   150  245  48    
   250  240  87    
   400  237  118    
   800  234  115    
   1000  229  209    
 Test 2  200  237  73   orange/blue  233
   600  234  252    
   900  233  174    
 Test 3  300  239  85   orange/blue  231
   700  234  183    
   950  231  281    

Ignition of the test item within 5 minutes after introduction was observed with each sample volume and with each test a minimum auto-ignition temperature was obtained. The maximum deviation between the three values was < 10°C. According to the guidelines, no further testing was required.

The lowest temperature at which ignition of the test item occurred was 229°C. This temperature was rounded down to the nearest multiple of 5°C giving an auto-ignition temperature of the test item of 225°C.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
A commercially available auto-ignition temperature apparatus was used for the determination of the degree of auto-ignitability of JNJ-39005525-AAA (EMME).
The test item is auto-ignitable with an auto-ignition temperature of 225°C at 1008 - 1011 hPa.
