Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Astrazon Goldgelb GL-E 200% micro showed no sensitizing properties in the Buehler test
Executive summary:

Testing for sensitizing properties of Astrazon Goldgelb GL-E 200% was performed in female guinea pigs according to the method of BUEHLER.

Dermal induction was performed using 100 % Astrazon Goldgelb GL-E 200% moistened with deionized water.

Challenge treatment were carried out with 100 % Astrazon Goldgelb GL-E 200% moistened with deionized water.

The validity of the test system is confirmed by the periodically conducted positive control test using alpha-hexyl cinnamic aldehyde for the BUEHLER test (report number 98.0419, dated June 26, 1998; Hoechst Marion Roussel Deutschland GmbH, Drug Safety).

Under the conditions of the present study, none of twenty animals of the treatment group showed a positive skin response after the challenge procedure.

Based on the results of this study Astrazon Goldgelb GL-E 200% showed no evidence for sensitizing properties.
