Details on study design:
RANGE FINDING TESTS:
- Induction: 2 x 2 cm gauze patches with the test material (0.3 cm³/patch) were placed on the shaved skin and occlusively fixed with adhesive strips and wraps. Each animal received 2 patches on each flank with 5, 25, 50, and 100% (w/w) test material concentration. After removal the test sites were cleaned with maize oil and chemical pulp. The skin reactions were recorded 30 and 54 hours after start of application.
- Challenge: Animals, which were not included into the induction procedure, received patches analogous to the induction procedure. The reason for this additional test was a presumed difference in sensitivity to the test material concentrations due to the body weight development. Animals tested in this part of the pretest had similar body weight to those of the main study during challenge application.

MAIN STUDY
A. INDUCTION EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 3
- Exposure period: days 1-14
- Test groups:
Induction phase I (day 0): 2 x 2 cm gauze patches with the test material (0.3 cm³/patch) were placed on the shaved skin and occlusively fixed with adhesive strips and wraps. After removal the test sites were cleaned with maize oil and chemical pulp. The skin reactions were recorded 30 hours after start of application.
Induction phase II (day 7) and Induction phase III (day 14): analogous to Induction Phase I
- Control group:
Induction phase I (day 0): 2 x 2 cm gauze patches with the vehicle (0.3 cm³/patch) were placed on the shaved skin and occlusively fixed with adhesive strips and wraps. After removal the test sites were cleaned with maize oil and chemical pulp. The skin reactions were recorded 30 hours after start of application.
Induction phase II (day 7) and Induction phase III (day 14): analogous to Induction Phase I
- Site: posterior part of the left flanks
- Frequency of applications: days 0, 7, and 14
- Duration: 6 hours
- Concentrations: 100% (undiluted)

B. CHALLENGE EXPOSURE
- No. of exposures: 1
- Day(s) of challenge: day 28
- Exposure period: 6 hours
- Test groups: Two 2 x 2 cm gauze patches with the vehicle or the test material (0.3 cm³/patch) were placed on the clipped skin and occlusively fixed with adhesive strips and wraps. After removal the test sites were cleaned with maize oil and chemical pulp. The skin reactions were recorded 30 and 54 hours after start of application.
- Control group: Two 2 x 2 cm gauze patches with the vehicle or the test material (0.3 cm³/patch) were placed on the clipped skin and occlusively fixed with adhesive strips and wraps. After removal the test sites were cleaned with maize oil and chemical pulp.
- Site: test material: posterior part of the right flanks; vehicle: anterior part of the right flanks
- Concentrations: 100% (undiluted)
- Evaluation (hr after challenge): The skin reactions were recorded 30 and 54 hours after start of application.
Challenge controls:
For the challenge exposure the test group animals received also a patch with vehicle.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test item was tested for skin sensitising properties according to OECD TG 406 (1992), and in compliance with GLP. None of the animals showed any skin reactions at the test sites 30 and 54 hours after challenge exposure. Hence, classification for skin sensitisation according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 is not warranted.
