Interpretation of results:

Conclusions:
Based on the result of the contact hypersensitivity maximization test in guinea pigs according to OECD 406 the read across-substance does not have to be classified and labelled as a skin sensitizer.
Executive summary:

To assess the cutaneous allergenic potential of the read across-substance (CAS 39322-78-6) the Maximization-Test was performed in 15 (10 test and 4 control) female albino Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs in accordance with OECD guideline 406.

The intradermal induction of sensitization in the test group was performed in the nuchal region with a 1 % dilution of the read across-substance in purified water in an emulsion of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/physiological saline. The epidermal induction of sensitization was conducted for 48 hours under occlusion with the test item at 75 % in purified water one week after the intradermal induction. The animals of the control group were intradermally induced with purified water under occlusion.

Two weeks after epidermal induction the control and test animals were challenged by epidermal application of the test item at 10 % in purified water and purified water alone under occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were evaluated at 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing. No toxic signs were evident in the guinea pigs of the control or test group. No deaths occurred. No skin effect/reaction was observed in the control and test group after challenge treatment with the read across-substance at 10 % in purified water.

Based on these findings, the substance does not have to be classified and labelled as a skin sensitizer.

Induction
- Intradermal Injection/Test Day 1
An area of dorsal skin fron the scapular region (approx. 6x8 cm) was clipped free of hair. Three pairs of intradermal injections (0.1 mL/site) were made just within the boundaries of a 4x6 cm area in the clipped region as follows:
Test Group:
1) 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline.
2) The test item at 1 % in purified water.
3) The test item at 1 % in a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Fraund's Complete adjuvant and physiological saline.

Control Group:
1) 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline.
2) purified water
3) 1:1 (w/w) mixture of purified water in a 1:1 (v/v) mixture of Freund's Complete Adjuvant and physiological saline.

- Epidermal Indcution/Test Day 8
One week after the injection, the scapular area (approx. 6x8 cm) was again clipped and shaved free of hair to the application. A 2x4 cm patch of filter paper was saturated with the test item at 75 % in purified water and placed over the injcetion sites of the test animals. The amount of the tst item preparation applied was approx. 0.3 g. The patch was covered with aluminium foil and firmly secured by an plaser wrapped around the trunk of the animal and secured with impervious tape. The occlusive dressings were left in place for 48 h. The epidermal application procedure described ensured intensive contact of the test item.

The guinea pigs of the control group were treated as described above with purified water only, applied at a volume of aprox. 0.3 mL.

The reaction sites were assessed 24 and 48 h after removal of the bandage for erythema and oedema according to the method of Magnusson and Kligman.

Challenge/Test Day 22
The test and control guinea pigs were challenged two weeks after the epidermal induction application and were treated in the same way.

Hair was cliped and shaved from a 5x5 cm area on the left and right flank of each guinea pig just prior to the application. Two patches (3x3 cm) of filter paper were saturated with the test item at the highest tested non-irritating concentration of 10 % (applied to the left flank) and the vehicle only (purified water applied to the right flank) using the same method as for the epidermal application. The volume of the test item preparation was approx. 0.2 mL and a volume of approx. 0.2 mL was used for the vehicle. The dressings were left in place for 24 h.

21 h after removal of the dressing the test sites treated with the test item were depilated as described in the epidermal pretest.

Approx. 3 h later (approx. 48 h from start of the challenge application) the skin reaction was observed and recorded according to the numerical grading system following Magnusson and Kligman grading scale.

Approx. 24 h after this observation (72 h from the start of the challenge application) was made and once again recorded.

Five test animals showed discrete/patchy erythema at the 24-hour reading after treatment with Alpha-Hexylcinnamaldehyde at 01. % in PEG 300 (left flank).

Additional information:

To assess the cutaneous allergenic potential of the read across substance (CAS 39322-78-6, Reaction mass of potassium didodecylphosphate and dipotassium dodecylphosphate and water) the Guinea Pig Maximization-Test was performed in 15 (10 test and 5 control) female albino Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs in accordance with OECD guideline 406. The intradermal induction of sensitization in the test group was performed in the nuchal region with a 1 % dilution of the test item in purified water in an emulsion of Freund's Complete Adjuvant (FCA)/physiological saline. The epidermal induction of sensitization was conducted for 48 hours under occlusion with the test item at 75 % in purified water one week after the intradermal induction. The animals of the control group were intradermally induced with purified water under occlusion. Two weeks after epidermal induction the control and test animals were challenged by epidermal application of the test item at 10 % in purified water and purified water alone under occlusive dressing. Cutaneous reactions were evaluated at 24 and 48 hours after removal of the dressing. No toxic signs were evident in the guinea pigs of the control or test group. No deaths occurred. No skin effect/reaction was observed in the control and test group after challenge treatment with the test item at 10 % in purified water. Based on these findings, the test item does not have to be classified and labelled as a skin sensitizer.

Furthermore, in the ECHA disseminated dossier of 1-Octadecanol, phosphate, potassium salt (CAS 68987-29-1) also no signs of skin sensitization are revealed for the C18 salt. Therefore it is concluded that the substance to be registered (comprising of C12, C18 and C12/C18 alkyl phosphates) does not have a skin sensitizing property.
