Description of key information
The test item „2-propanol and 2-butanol production, distn. residue“, dissolved in acetone:olive oil (4+1), was assessed for its possible contact allergenic potential in an OECD 429 (EU B.42) study under GLP.
For this purpose, a local lymph node assay was performed using test item concentrations of 25, 50, and 100%.
The animals did not show any clinical signs during the course of the study and no cases of mortality were observed.
In this study Stimulation Indices (S.I.) of 0.84, 1.14, and 1.34 were determined with the test item at concentrations of 25, 50, and 100% in acetone:olive oil (4+1), respectively, and as a result the test item „2-propanol and 2-butanol production, distn. residue“ is not considered sensitising to skin.
The respiratory sensitisation potential of „2-propanol and 2-butanol production, distn. residue“ was not tested.

Two mice were treated with concentrations of 50 and 100% each on three consecutive days. In the pre-test clinical signs were recorded within 1 hour and 24 ±4 hours after each application as well as on day 7. At the tested concentrations the animals did not show any signs of irritation or systemic toxicity.
- Lymph node proliferation response: Not reported
MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: LLNA
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: A test item is regarded as a sensitiser in the LLNA if the following criteria are fulfilled: (1) that exposure to at least one concentration of the test item resulted in an incorporation of 3HTdR at least 3-fold or greater than that recorded in control mice, as indicated by the stimulation index. (2) that the data are compatible with a conventional dose response, although allowance must be made (especially at high topical concentrations) for either local toxicity or immunological suppression.
TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION:
Acclimatisation: At least 5 days prior to the start of dosing under test conditions after health examination. Only animals without any visible signs of illness were used for the study.
Each test group of mice was treated by topical (epidermal) application to the dorsal surface of each ear (left and right) with different test item concentrations of 25, 50, and 100% (w/w) in acetone:olive oil (4:1). The application volume, 25 µl, was spread over the entire dorsal surface (diameter approximately 8 mm) of each ear once daily for three consecutive days. A further group of mice was treated with an equivalent volume of the relevant vehicle alone (control animals).
Application was without occluded patch.
Endpoint to measure effect:
Five days after the first topical application, the mice were intravenously injected into a tail vein with radio-labelled thymidine (3H-methyl thymidine). Approximately five hours after intraveinous injection, the mice were sacrificed and the draining auricular lymph nodes excised and pooled per group. Single cell suspensions of lymph node cells were prepared from pooled lymph nodes, which were subsequently washed and incubated with trichloroacetic acid overnight. The proliferate capacity of pooled lymph node cells was determined by the incorporation of 3H-methyl thymidine measured in a beta-scintillation counter. - Positive control substance(s):

- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
The skin sensitisation properties of „2-propanol and 2-butanol production, distn. residue“ were tested with the mouse local lymph node assay (LLNA) method. This study was conducted following the OECD 429 and EU B.42 methods. No sensitisation effects were observed, and consequently the test item is not classified as skin sensitising.
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
- Additional information:
The respiratory sensitisation of „2-propanol and 2-butanol production, distn. residue“ was not tested.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The criteria for the classification of „2-propanol and 2-butanol production, distn. residue“ according to GHS/CLP were not met.
The respiratory sensitisation of the test item was not tested.
Thus, the substance is not classifiable for skin or respiratory sensitisation according to GHS / CLP (Regulation EC 1272/2008).
