Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not sensitising
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- The testing for skin sensitisation is waived, because FMMVF fibres are inorganic fibres, whose physicochemical properties suggest a low potential to cross biological membranes and consequently a low potential to penetrate the skin. Skin penetration is prerequisite in the LLNA test. It is evaluated that FMMVF fibres will not give any response in the LNNA test. Furthermore, many years of workers exposure has not revealed cases of skin sensitisation. It is assessed that FMMVF fibres are not a skin sensitiser in humans.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
