Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Three in chemico studies were performed according to OECD TG 442C, 442D and 442E. The data generated with each one of these methods alone may be not sufficient to conclude on the absence of skin sensitisation potential of chemicals. They should be considered in the context of integrated approach.

In the first study (OECD TG 442C) the test item could not be measured by HPLC due to the turbidity and phase separation of the samples with both peptide solutions. Therefore, the result must be considered as inconclusive.

In the second study (OECD TG 442D) the test item did not induce the luciferase activity in the transgenic KeratinoSens™ cell line in at least two independent experiment runs. Therefore, the test item can be considered as non sensitiser.

In the last study (OECD TG 442E) the data showed a strong shift of the fluorescence signal for the test item compared to the medium. Therefore, it was assumed, that the test item is a strong fluorescent test chemical emitting at the same wavelength as FITC and interferes with the flow cytometric detection.

The data showed a strong shift of the fluorescence signal for the test item compared to the medium. Therefore, it was assumed, that the test item is a strong fluorescent test chemical emitting at the same wavelength as FITC and interferes with the flow cytometric detection.

Interpretation of results:
study cannot be used for classification
Conclusions:
The test item is a strong fluorescent test chemical emitting at the same wavelength as FITC and interferes with the flow cytometric detection; therefore it can not correctly be evaluated using FITC conjugated antibodies.

No dose response for luciferase activity induction was observed for each individual run as well as for an overall luciferase activity induction.Under the condition of this study the test item is therefore considered as non sensitiser.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In this study under the given conditions the test item did not induce the luciferase activity in the transgenic KeratinoSens™ cell line in at least two independent experiment runs. Therefore, the test item can be considered as non sensitiser.

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to the results of the 3 in vitro studies and according to Regulation (EC) n. 1272/2008, no classification for the sensitization endpoint is assigned to the substance.
