Appearance and behaviour of the test substance group were not different from the control groups with the following exceptions: two animals of the treatment group showed bloody wounds and encrustations in places on the treatment areas after the 2nd induction (beginning on day 9, healing by day 14 or 15). No mortalities occurred. The body weight development of the treatment group animals corresponded to that of the control group.

Executive summary:

To determine the skin-sensitizing properties of N-Formylaminosorbit the guinea pig maximization test was performed on female guinea pigs according to OECD guideline 406. The study was conducted with the following test substance concentrations:

intradermal induction: 5%

topical induction: 50%

challenge: 50% and 25%

Since the substance was found to be not irritating in the range-finding study, the treatment areas of the animals were pre-stimulated with sodium lauryl sulfate prior to the second induction.

Under the condition of the maximization test and with respect to the evaluation criteria N-Formylaminosorbit exhibited no skin-sensitization potential.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Additional information:

Neither the test substance group animals nor the controls exhibited dermal reactions in the Guinea Pig Maximization Test following challenges with 50% and 25% test substance formulation.

Therefore, under the conditions of the test N-Formylaminosorbit showed to be no skin sensitizer.
