No irritation and no signs of systemic toxicity were observed in any of the animals.

No mortality occurred and no clinical signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals of the main study. Body weights and body weight gain of experimental animals remained in the same range as controls over the study period.

All auricular lymph nodes of the animals of the experimental and control groups were considered normal in size.

No macroscopic abnormalities of the surrounding area were noted for any of the animals.

Mean DPM/animal values for the experimental groups treated with test item concentrations 2, 15 and 30% were 899, 780 and 584 DPM, respectively. The mean DPM/animal value for the vehicle control group was 911 DPM. The SI values calculated for the item concentrations 2, 15 and 30% were 1.0, 0.9 and 0.6, respectively.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Dilithium adipate would not be regarded as a skin sensitizer.
Executive summary:

This study is carried out in accordance to OECD guideline 429, EU method B.42 and is GLP compliant. Therefore, it is given reliability rating of 1 (reliable without restrictions). Dilithium adipate would not be regarded as a skin sensitizer.
