Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (skin sensitising) based on GHS criteria
Executive summary:

In a dermal sensitization study  with Cyclopropylamine in ethanol, young adult Hartley-Albino  guniea pig  (10 animals per group/male) were tested using the method of Guinea pig maximisation test. A 0.05% v/v solution of 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene in ethanol was ustilizedas positive control material.

A sensitizing reaction was produed by the 1.0% v/v solution of Cyclopropylamine in ethanol. In this study, cyclopropylamine is  a dermal sensitizer classified as Category 1 based on the test result.
