Description of key information

The "Skin Sensitisation: Local Lymph Node Assay" for the test substance was performed in five groups of 5 female CBA mice (According to OECD Guideline 429).

The test substance is regarded as a not sensitising, since the SIs of all examined test substance concentrations were clearly smaller than 3.

Body masses and body mass gains of all animals were in the range to be expected from animals of the same strain, sex and age.

Body weight loss was noted in 1/5 animals in group A.

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified for skin sensitization (CLP Regulation EC no. 1272/2008)
Conclusions:
The test substance is regarded as a non sensitiser in the "Skin Sensitisation: Local Lymph Node Assay", since the SIs of all examined test substance concentrations were clearly smaller than 3.
Executive summary:

The "Skin Sensitisation: Local Lymph Node Assay" for the test substance was performed in five groups of 5 female CBA mice( According to OECD Guideline 429). The doses tested were 100% of test material (as it is); 50% (v/v) and 25 % (v/v). The vehicle used was acetone:oil (4:1, v/v) (AOO). A positive control (25% solution of hexyl cinnamic aldehyde in AOO) and a negative control (AOO) were included on the test. Both control substances were administrated under identical conditions as the test substance. The Administration was performed epicutaneously to the dorsal surface of both ears, once a day on three consecutive days. The volume administrated was 25 µl per ear. 5 days after the first topical administration, each animal received 20 µlCi3HTdR by intravenous administration. Approximately 5 hour after 3HTdR injection all animals were sacrificed and the3HTdR incorporation determinate. The application sites were visually checked for local irritations at least once a day. Body weight was recorded on days 1 and 6 after the administration.

The test substance is regarded as a not sensitising, since the SIs of all examined test substance concentrations were clearly smaller than 3.
