Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
At the 24 and 48 hours after challenge with test substance of 25 %(w/v), the
sensitisation index (mean score of skin reaction) and frequency index (sensitisation
rate) were '0.0', '0.0 %' and '0.0', '0.0 %' at 24 and 48 hours for the test substance. In
the positive control group, the sensitisation index (mean score of skin reaction) and
frequency index (sensitisation rate) were '1.4', '90.0 %' and '0.6', '60.0 %' .
These results indicate that LiFSI is considered to have minimal skin sensitizing
potency (Class I) considering no skin reaction in guinea pigs by Buehler test under
the conditions of this study.
