Administrative data

Endpoint:
skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
21.02.1979 to 27.06.1979
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
study well documented, meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
This study was conducted before OECD TG 406 was available. It was conducted according to the Magnusson and Kligman guinea pig maximisation test.
GLP compliance:
no
Type of study:
guinea pig maximisation test
Justification for non-LLNA method:
An LLNA study was not performed because there is an existing reliable study for skin sensitisation using the Guinea Pig Maximisation test method, which pre-dates REACH Regulation (EC No 1907/2006) and CLP Regulation (EC No 1272/2008).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In a guinea pig maximisation study conducted before OECD TG 406 and GLP (reliability score 2), DTPMP was not sensitising to the skin of guinea-pigs.
