RANGE FINDING TESTS:
- Compound solubility: The test item is a pigment and insoluble in organic or inorganic solvents. A suspension of up to 10% could be tested.
- Irritation: Not irritating
- Lymph node proliferation response: No data

MAIN STUDY
ANIMAL ASSIGNMENT AND TREATMENT
- Name of test method: non-radiolabelled LLNA
- Criteria used to consider a positive response: The results of the LLNA were evaluated according to the following criteria.
The following thresholds were determined by Ulrich (2007) from analysis of historical data:
Ear weight index: 1.05
LN weight: 1.2
LN cell count: 1.3

1. Values which exceed these thresholds were considered positive
- when a statistically significant increase in one of the parameters occurs and a clear
concentration-dependence can be derived
- or with no statistical significance, but a clear concentration-dependence.
2. Values which are below these thresholds were considered positive
- when a statistical significant occurs in one of the parameters together with a clear
concentration dependence.

TREATMENT PREPARATION AND ADMINISTRATION: Before start of application the suspension was mixed for 5 minutes with a
magnetic stirrer and then were still mixed during application.
Positive control substance(s):
other: Dinitrochlorobenzene

Any other information on results incl. tables

No animal died during the main experiment.

No symptoms of toxicity were observed in animals fram the negative contral group and in groups administered by the test substance at the concentration 0.1 %, 1% and 10%. All animals in the positive contral group showed these symptoms: hyperaemia of skin and

clonospasm.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In a GLP-compliant study according to OECD TG 429, the substance did not induce any skin sensitization up to the maximum testable concentration (in suspension) of 10%.
