Details on study design:
Guinea Pig Maximization test:
Possible sensitising properties of the test compound were evaluated by administration of the test substance to the shoulder region, first by
intracutaneous application (stage 1) and 7 days later by topical administration (stage 2, exposure time: 48 hours).
In a challenge test (stage 3) the test compound was again applied topically but to the flank region (exposure time: 24 hours). This area was then
examined for reactions which might indicate sensitising properties of the test compound.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions the test substance revealed no sensitizing properties in guinea-pigs in a test model according to MAGNUSSON and KLIGMAN.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Additional information:

In two dermal sensitization studies the test substance was tested in guinea pigs according to guideline OECD 406 (Guinea pig maximisation test).

In both studies, the test substance revealed no sensitizing properties.
