Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not sensitizing
Conclusions:
The skin sensitization study of Fluorescent Brightener 220 (16470-24-9) was performed by repeated insult patch test in human was determined to be not skin sensitizing
Executive summary:

The skin sensitization study of Fluorescent Brightener 220(16470-24-9) was performed by repeated insult patch test in 103 female volunteers using 0.1% aqueous solution.

In induction phase, 10 repeated patch applications was done using 0.1% test solution for 48hr per application at back of the volunteers.

In challenge phase, After 14 days rest period challenge application of 0.1% test solution was applied on back of the subject for 48hr.No skin sensitizing reaction observed after 48hr of challenge application .Hence it is considered thatFluorescent Brightener 220(16470-24-9) was not skin sensitizing in human
