Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
The sensitizing potential of the test article was assessed in guinea pigs using the Buhler test. No animal trated with the test article showed positive reaction at the challenge.
On the basis of these results, under the experimental conditions applied, the test item did not appear to possess sensitizing capacity.
