Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 406 (Skin Sensitisation)
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of study:
Buehler test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
The REACH Annex VII information requirements were revised in 2016 to endorse a battery of in vitro assays for skin sensitisation. Conducted prior to the validation and regulatory acceptance of alternative methods, the reliable in vivo Buehler test was considered sufficient to fulfil the information requirement.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not sensitising
Remarks:
Migrated information 1B: >15% to <60% responding at >0.1% to <1% intradermal induction dose or >30% responding at >1% intradermal induction dose Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Although some positive responses (2/20) were observed at the 10% dose level, according the GHS critieria these were not sufficient for the chemical to be classified as a sensitisor. Following Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, the substance is not classified as sensitising.
