Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Any other information on results incl. tables

On the basis of similarities between the type of skin reactions occurring in test and control groups, the results of a preliminary skin irritation study in which a 50% test dilution produced irritation in 1/3 animals tested, and the nature and degree of the skin reactions normally observed after challenging with standard allergens, the skin reactions in this study were considered to be consistent with signs of skin irritation rather than sensitisation. The results of this study indicate that BNE is not a skin sensitiser in guinea-pigs.
