Test Item Administration
Groups of five mice were treated with the test item at concentrations of 2.5%, 5%, 10%, 25% or 50% v/v in EtOH/DEP. No justification on the choice of vehicle is provided. The doses were chosen on the basis of avoiding systemic toxicity and overtly induced skin irritation, according to reported uses of the test material. The mice were treated by daily application of 25 µl of the appropriate concentration of the test item to the dorsal surface of each ear for three consecutive days (Days 1, 2, 3). The test item formulation was administered using an automatic micropipette and spread over the dorsal surface of the ear using the tip of the pipette.
A further group of five mice received the vehicle alone in the same manner.
The positive control animals were similarly treated to the test animals except that 25 µl of the positive control item, α Hexylcinnamaldehyde, at a concentration of 5%, 15% and 35% v/v in ethanol/diethyl phthalate 1:3 was applied to the dorsal surface of each ear.
3H-Methyl Thymidine Administration
On day 6, all mice were injected via the tail vein with 250 µl of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) containing 3H methyl thymidine (3HTdR:80µCi/ml, specific activity 2.0 Ci/mmol, ARC UK Ltd) giving a total of 20 µCi to each mouse.
Observations
Clinical Observations: All animals were observed before and after dosing, and on a daily basis on Days 4, 5 and 6. Any signs of toxicity or signs of ill health during the test were recorded. The animals were also examined daily for erythema and edema on the site of application.
Bodyweights: The bodyweight of each mouse was recorded on Day 1 (prior to dosing) and Day 6 (prior to termination).
Terminal Procedures
Termination: Five hours following the administration of 3HTdR all mice were killed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation. For each individual animal of each group the draining auricular lymph nodes were excised and processed.
Preparation of Single Cell Suspension: A single cell suspension of the lymph node cells for each individual animal was prepared. The lymph node cells were rinsed with PBS and precipitated with 5% trichloroacetic acid during night. The lymph node cells suspension was transferred to a centrifuge tube and thereafter, the pellets were resuspended in 1 ml TCA and transferred to scintillation fluid vials for the measurement of the radioactive material. - Positive control substance(s):
- hexyl cinnamic aldehyde (CAS No 101-86-0)
- Statistics:
- Data was processed to give group mean values for disintegrations per minute and standard deviations where appropriate. Increases in the radioactivity compared to the vehicle control were recorded. Individual DPM values were analyzed with log values. Dunett's test was used to determine significance when required. The EC3 was calculated as follows:
EC3=c+[(3-d)/(b-d)](a-c),
data points between the SI=3 lie in the coordinates (a,b) and (c,d) - Positive control results:
- The positive control item, α-Hexylcinnamaldehyde, gave a Stimulation Index of greater than 3 (which was 9.4) when tested at a concentration of 35% v/v.

Skin sensitisation study (LLNA) with Pino Acetald
The skin sensitisation potential of Pino Acetald was tested according to OECD TG 429 (Local Lymph Node Assay). At 2.5, 5, 10, 25 and 50% the substance showed SI values of 1.8, 1.1, 1.7, 3.0 and 4.5, respectively. An EC3 value of 25% was derived. The substance was found to be a skin sensitiser under the conditions of this test.
The skin sensitisation properties of Intreleven aldehyde (CAS 58296-81-4; Target) using read across from Pino ACETALD (CAS 33885-51-7; Source)
Introduction and hypothesis for the read across
Intreleven aldehyde is a multi-constituent which consists of the following main constituents: Undec-10 -enal, (9E) Undec-9 -enal, (9Z) Undec-9 -enal and (8E) Undec-8 -enal. These constituents are aldehydes with a linear carbon backbone and contain one C=C double bond at various positions ranging from C 8 to 10. For this substance no skin sensitisation data are available. Therefore additional information is used in accordance with Article 13 of REACH where it is said that lacking information should be generated whenever possible by means other than vertebrate animal tests, i.e. applying alternative methods such as in vitro tests, SARs, grouping and read-across. For assessing the skin sensitisation of Intreleven aldehyde, the analogue approach is selected because for one closely related analogue, Pino ACETALD, skin sensitisation data are available which can be used for read-across.
Hypothesis: Intreleven aldehyde is expected to have the same skin sensitisation properties as Pino ACETALD.
Available information: For the target substance, Intreleven aldehyde, no sensitization information is available. Based on the substance being an aldehyde, skin sensitization is expected. For the source chemical, Pino ACETALD, an OECD TG 429 (Local Lymph Node Assay, K1) is available. At 2.5, 5, 10, 25 and 50% the substance showed SI values of 1.8, 1.1, 1.7, 3.0 and 4.5, respectively. An EC3 value of 25% was derived.
Target and Source chemical(s):
Chemical structures of the target chemical (Intreleven aldehyde) and the source chemical (Pino ACETALD) are shown in the data matrix, including physico-chemical properties and toxicological information, thought relevant for skin sensitisation.
Purity / Impurities:
The components and impurities of the target chemical do not indicate skin sensitisation properties other than indicated by the parent substance. The constituents are known for at least 95% and therefore this substance is well characterized.
Analogue justification
According to REACH Annex XI an analogue approach and structural alert information can be used to replace testing when information from different sources provides sufficient evidence to conclude that this substance has or does not have a particular dangerous property. The result derived should be applicable for C&L and/or risk assessment and be presented with adequate and reliable documentation.
Analogue selection: Pino ACETALD was selected as analogue based on the structural similarity with Intreleven aldehyde and because it is a substance from IFF portfolio, for which suitable information on skin sensitization was available.
Structural similarities and differences: The target chemical, Intreleven aldehyde, and source chemical Pino ACETALD have the same hydrocarbon backbone with one double C=C bond and aldehyde functional group. The difference between the target and source substance is that Pino ACETALD has a cyclic ring in its tail, while Intreleven aldehyde has it linear.
Toxicokinetics: To some extent skin absorption is needed for skin sensitisation. Intreleven aldehyde and Pino Acetald are likely to be absorbed in skin, based on the fact that they are both liquids, the similarity in chemical structure and physico-chemical properties (similar molecular weights and logKow).
Toxicodynamics: Reactivity is the key parameter for assessing the skin sensitization potential. Both Intreleven aldehyde and Pino Acetald are expected to have the same reactivity based on the fact that they both have the same functional alkyl aldehyde group, which is the key structural parameter for skin sensitisation potential. Pino acetald can, however, be a bit more reactive based on skin and eye irritation information, where it was demonstrated to be an irritant, while Intreleven aldehyde was not.
Remaining uncertainties: There are no remaining uncertainties as presented above.
Data matrix
The relevant information on physico-chemical properties and toxicological characteristics are presented in the Data Matrix in Table 1.
Conclusions for skin sensitisation
For the target substance Intreleven aldehyde, the potential for skin sensitisation was derived from Pino Acetald using read across. The results of this read-across assessment based on OECD TG 429 (Local Lymph Node Assay) indicated senstitisation potential (EC3 value of 25%). This information can also be used for Intreleven aldehyde based on the similarity in structure, toxicokinetics and reactivity.
Final conclusion on hazard and application in the risk assessment: From analogue information and structural alert information, it can be concluded that Intreleven aldehyde is expected to exert skin sensitising properties and it is a sensitizer 1B.

Respiratory sensitisation
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
This endpoint can be assessed using human data such as indicated in R7.3.5.2 of the ECHA guidance (2015) that indicate respiratory reactions e. g. from consumer experience or occupational exposure. In case no such data are available, the respiratory sensitisation can be assessed using the integrated evaluation strategy for respiratory sensitisation data in the ECHA guidance (R7A, Fig. 7.3-2, 2015).
The substance is not a respiratory sensitiser in absence of human data indicating such effects, and in addition:
1) The substance is a skin sensitiser;
2) The substance does not belong to the di-isocyanates;
3) The substance has no structural alerts or is structurally related to chemicals causing respiratory sensitisation as presented in Table R.7.3-1 in the ECHA guidance of 2015 or those provided in the following document: http://ec.europa.eu/health/scientific_committees/docs/annex6_respiratory.pdf
Based on this stategy, Intreleven aldehyde is not considered to be a respiratory sensitiser.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available data, the substance needs to be classified as skin sensitiser (Skin Sens. 1B / H317) in accordance with the criteria outlined in the EU CLP Regulation (EC No. 1272/2008 and its updates).
In absence of human data indicating respiratory sensitisation and using the ITS in the ECHA guidance (R.7a, 2014), the substance is not considered to be a respiratory sensitiser in accordance with the criteria outlined in the EU CLP Regulation (EC No. 1272/2008 and its updates).
