Interpretation of results:

not sensitising

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

The test item was found to be not a skin sensitiser under the described conditions.

Executive summary:

In the study the test item dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide was assessed for its possible contact allergenic potential

For this purpose a local lymph node assay was performed using a test item concentration of 25%.

The animals did not show any clinical signs during the course of the study and no cases of mortality were observed. Due to the intense colour of the test item reddening of the ear skin could not be evaluated.

In this study a Stimulation Index (S.I.) of 2.2 was determined with the test item at a concentration of 25% in dimethyl sulfoxide, respectively.

The test item was not a skin sensitiser in this assay.

Endpoint conclusion

Endpoint conclusion:

no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)

Additional information:

In an LLNA in mice using a 25 % solution of the test material in DMSO a stimulation index of 2.2 was determined. Thus the test material was classified as not sensitizing.

Migrated from Short description of key information:
In an LLNA in mice using a 25 % solution of the test material in DMSO a stimulation index of 2.2 was determined.

Justification for selection of skin sensitisation endpoint:
Only available study

Respiratory sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion

Endpoint conclusion:

no study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

No classification

In an LLNA in mice the minimum stimulation index of 3 was not reached.
