Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
In a reliable study, carried out using a protocol similar to OECD guideline 406 (Magnusson and Kligman maximization test) Dobanol 23 (C12-C13 chain length synthetic primary fatty alcohol) did not induce sensitization in male and female guinea pigs.
