Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
As the result of a LLNA test performed in mice according to OECD guideline 429, dicumyl peroxide was found to be not sensitising. The simulation index for cell count did not exceed the threshold of 1.4, when tested at concentration up to 50% (25 µL/ear).
Dicumyl peroxide was found to be not sensitising to skin.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Skin sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
- Additional information:
No data regarding repiratory sensitisation are available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on negative results obtained in reliable studies classification of dicumyl peroxide as a skin sensitizer is not warranted according to EU regulation 1272/2008.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
