Skin sensitisation
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Acceptable, well-documented study report equivalent or similar to EU Method B6: GLP.
- Justification for type of information:
- The Buehler skin sensitisation test is a scientifically valid method for assessing skin sensitisation potential. As the data exists and is adequate for hazard assessment, perfoming a new LLNA test is not scientifically justified.

POSITIVE CONTROL STUDY
The sensitivity of the guinea-pig strain used was checked periodically by testing facility with formalin. - Positive control substance(s):
- yes
- Remarks:
- formalin
Results and discussion
- Positive control results:
- A formalin study demonstrated that a valid test was performed and indicated that the test design would detect potential contact sensitizers.

- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- Not sensitising
- Executive summary:
In this study, 20 guinea pigs were tested with the registered substance under EU Method B6 to assess the skin sensitization potential. Three occlusive inductions of 0.5 ml the registered substance as a 75% v/v solution on Alembicol D were administered. After a 2 week rest period, a single 6 hour challenge application was applied. Dermal observations were made at 24, 48 and 72 hours following this exposure. At no point during the course of the study were there any clinical observations of erythema or edema. It is concluded that the registered substance is not a skin sensitizing agent.
