Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Reactiv-Red F52 167 FW, based on this expermient, is not a sensitizer
Executive summary:

The potential of sensitisation of Reactive Red F-52 167 FW was tested on the skin of Pirbright-White-Guinea pigs.

The intradermal Induction treatment was done with 1% of the test substance in 0.9% NaCl-solution. The dermal induction treatment was done with 25% test substance and 0.9% NaCl-solutions.

Since any skin reaction which may have been present could not be determined visually due to the colour of the test
substance itself, the evaluation was performed by means of measurement of the skin thickness and hstopathological assessment of the skin..

Evaluation of the study results lead to the conclusion that the test substance is not a sensitizer.

Reactive Red F-52 167 FW, has not to be classified.
