Description of key information
not skin sensitising
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Skin sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
The potential of the test item to cause skin sensitisation reactions following topical application to the skin of CBA/JN mice, was assessed using the LLNA:BrdU-ELISA method, according to the OECD Guideline for testing of chemicals No. 442b (2010). Five concentrations [25 (maximum feasible concentration), 10, 5, 2.5 and 1 % w/w in acetone: olive oil 4:1 (v/v)] were tested in the preliminary phase, in order to identify a non toxic and minimally irritant concentration and avoid false positive results. Based on the results observed, in the main assay the test item was topically administered at the concentrations of 25, 10 and 5% (w/w), in acetone: olive oil 4:1 (v/v).
No mortality nor relevant clinical signs were recorded in any animal. Changes in body weight observed during the study were within the expected range for this strain and age of animals. No increase in cell proliferation of draining lymph nodes was observed in all dose groups, with a Stimulation Indices (SI) of 1.21, 0.90 and 0.72 at low, medium and high dose groups, respectively. No correlation with the doses nor statistical significance was observed. These results indicate that the test item does not elicit a sensitisation response.

Justification for classification or non-classification
SKIN SENSITISATION
In the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008) a skin sensitizer is defined as “a substance that will lead to an allergic response following skin contact”. A substance classified as skin sensitiser (Category 1) may be allocated to one of the two sub-categories 1A or 1B in accordance with the criteria given in Annex I, Part 3, Table 3.4.2.
In case of animal tests, for the reduced LLNA:BrdU-ELISA (OECD TG 442B)the criteria for determining the positive response is different from that of the traditional LLNA (OECD TG 429). Full details are given in the corresponding OECD Test Guidelines. There is no guidance for subcategorisation.
According to the OECD 442B (2010): the decision process regards a result as positive when SI ≥ 1.6. However, the strength of the dose-response relationship, the statistical significance and the consistency of the solvent/vehicle and PC responses may also be used when determining whether a borderline result (i.e. SI value between 1.6 and 1.9) is declared positive. For a borderline positive response between an SI of 1.6 and 1.9, users may want to consider additional information such as dose-response relationship, evidence of systemic toxicity or excessive irritation, and where appropriate, statistical significance together with SI values to confirm that such results are positives. Consideration should also be given to various properties of the test substance, including whether it has a structural relationship to known skin sensitizers, whether it causes excessive skin irritation in the mouse, and the nature of the dose-response observed. These and other considerations are discussed in detail elsewhere.
Based on the results of skin sensitisation of the LLNA: BrdU-ELISA performed on the test substance, the SI values obtained in all dose groups values are < 1.6. There is no dose-response relationship and no statistical significance. Considering the aforementioned, no classification for skin sensitization is warranted under the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008).
