Administrative data

Endpoint:
skin sensitisation: in vivo (non-LLNA)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
4 (not assignable)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study without detailed documentation
Remarks:
The study was conducted according to generally valid procedures and according to GLP guidelines. All parameters described are closely related or comparable to guideline methods. Study was summarized in documents published from OECD SIDS program. However, original company divested this business to another company and neither has a copy of the original report.
