The body weight gains of all animals treated with the test item were not impaired.


The treated animals showed no clinical signs of intoxication throughout the study.


lntradermal induction treatment:
The intradermal injections with Freund's Adjuvant (with and without test substance) caused clear up to severe erythema and edema as weil as indurations and encrustations and necrosis. The intradermal injections with the test substance in deionized water showed clear erythema and edema as weil as indurations and
encrustations and necrosis. lntradermal injections of the vehicle alone exhibited no
signs of irritation. Due to these strong irritation reactions of the skin, 10% sodium dodecylsulfate was not administered at day 7.


Dermal induction treatment:
After the removal of the patches at day 10, clear up to severe erythema and edema, indurated, encrusted skin as weil as necrosis were observed at the sites previously treated with Freund's Adjuvant (with and without test substance). The administration sites treated with the vehicle alone showed no signs of irritation.


Dermal challenge treatment
No skin reactions were observed in the control and the treatment group 24 and 48
hours after removal of the occlusive bandage.


Under the conditions of the present study, none of ten animals of the treatment group showed a positive skin response after the challenge procedure.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Executive summary:

Testing for sensitizing properties of dibutyl hydrogen phosphate was performed in female guinea pigs according to the method of Magnusson & Kligman.


Intradermal induction was performed using 1.0 % dibutyl hydrogen phosphate in deionized water. Dermal induction was carried out with 10.0 % dibutyl hydrogen phosphate in deionized water. Challenge treatment was carried out with 2.0 % dibutyl hydrogen phosphate in deionized water.


The validity of the test system is confirmed by the periodically conducted positive control test using alpha-hexyl cinnamic for the maximization test.


Under the conditions of the present study, none of ten animals of the treatment group showed a positive skin response after the challenge procedure.


Based on the results of this study dibutyl hydrogen phosphate showed no evidence for sensitizing properties.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)

Justification for classification or non-classification

Dibutyl hydrogen phosphate is not sensitizing to the skin.

According to CLP classification criteria (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008) a classification is not justified.
