Description of key information
No data are available for the target substance Sulfuric acids, C9-11-iso-C10 rich, alkyl esters, sodium salt. Therefore, read-across from structural analogue substances has been applied.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (not sensitising)
- Additional information:
There are no data on skin sensitisation available for Sulfuric acids, C9-11-iso-C10 rich, alkyl esters, sodium salt. Therefore, this endpoint is covered by read across to structurally related alkyl sulfates (AS) in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 Annex XI 1.5 “Grouping of substances and read-across approach”. In Annex XI 1.5 it is given that a read-across approach is possible for substances whose physico-chemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties are likely to be similar or follow a regular pattern as a result of structural similarity. The AS reported within the AS read-across approach show structural similarity. The most important common structural feature of the source and target substances is the presence of a predominantly linear aliphatic hydrocarbon chain with a polar sulfate group, neutralized with a counter ion. This structural feature confers the surfactant properties of the alkyl sulfates. The surfactant property of the source and target substances in turn represent the predominant attribute in mediating effects on mammalian health. Therefore, the AS have similar physico-chemical, environmental and toxicological properties. The approach of grouping different AS for the evaluation of their effects on human health and the environment was also made by the OECD in the SIDS initial assessment profile [1] and by a voluntary industry programme carrying out Human and Environmental Risk Assessments (HERA [2]), further supporting the read across approach between structurally related AS.
Skin sensitisation
There is one study regarding skin sensitisation with Sodium octyl sulfate (C8 AS Na, CAS 142-31-4) and a second study with Sodium dodecyl sulfate (C12 AS Na, CAS 151-21-3) available. Both studies are accounted for in a Weight-of-Evidence (WoE) approach.
The first study assessed the skin sensitizing potential of C8 AS Na (CAS 142-31-4, analytical purity 32%) in a Local Lymph Node Assay similar to OECD Guideline 429 (P&G, 1992). In this study 12.5 µL of a 10, 50 and 100% aqueous solution of the test substance were topically applied on 4 consecutive days to 5 female CBA mice per dose group. 21 h after the last treatment all animals received injections with radiolabelled thymidine. Animals were sacrificed 5 h thereafter and auricular lymph nodes were removed. Single cell suspensions were prepared, washed and precipitated. The total radio counts in these precipitates were subsequently quantified by liquid scintillation spectrometry. The stimulation index in the carrier control was 1. The stimulation indices for the naive control and animals tretated with 10, 50 and 100% of the test substance were 2.4, 1.25, 2.7 and 3.1, respectively. The treatment had no significant effect on thymidine incorporation and thus the test substance showed not sensitising potential.
In the second study, the skin sensitizing potential of C12 AS Na (CAS 151-21-3) was assessed in a Local Lymph Node Assay similar to OECD guideline 429 (Ikarashi, 1993) on 3 mice per dose and experiment. BALB/c mice were treated daily via topical application (25 µL) of 5, 10 and 25% aqueous solution of the test item on 3 consecutive days. The stimulation index determined did not exceed the threshold value of 3.0. Hence, no skin sensitisation potential was identified for the test substance.
Based on the above mentioned results, the data of the read-across substances indicate no skin sensitisation potential. Therefore, Sulfuric acids, C9-11-iso-C10 rich, alkyl esters, sodium salt is also not expected to be a skin sensitiser. Moreover, sodium lauryl sulphate (C12 AS Na) is recommended as an agent to induce local irritation in a method to assess skin sensitising properties of chemicals (OECD guideline 406, Guinea Pig Maximisation Test). Hence, there is a lot of experience with sodium lauryl sulfate in sensitising studies and no evidence occurred that it shows sensitising properties. Thus, skin sensitisation by members of the alkyl sulfates (AS) read-across approach is considered to be very unlikely.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no study available
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on skin sensitisation do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification. No data available for respiratory sensitisation.
