Additional information:

 

In different studies, 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) has been investigated for potential of skin sensitization to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in guinea pig for target chemical, 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) and its structurally similar read across substancesTriethylenediamine(280-57-9)and N-Methyldiethanolamine (105-59-9) the predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data of read across.

The skin sensitization potential of 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) was estimated by SSS (2017) using OECD QSAR toolbox v3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the six closest read across substances4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine was predicted to be not sensitizing to the skin of female Crl:HA guinea pig.

The experimental study conducted by OECD HPV SIDS (OECD HPV Chemical Programme, SIDS Dossier approved at SIAM 21, 2005) to evaluate the skin sensitizing potential of read across substanceTriethylenediamine(280-57-9). The skin sensitization study of Triethylenediamine(280-57-9)was performed by Guinea pig maximisation test in 20 Male and female Dunkin-Hartley albino guinea pigs. An additional 10 animals served as the vehicle control group; a positive control group was not included in the study.In induction phase,1stinduction given using 0.1concentration in physiological saline by intradermal route while in 2ndinduction done by using 25% concentration by epidermal application. In challenge phase, test substance 10 % concentration in same vehicle used for first and second challenge dose. No skin sensitizing reaction observed after challenge application.2 Female showed emaciation at day 36 and37. One Female showed emaciation from day 36 to 39 of test. While 2 female showed diarrhea at day 37.The body weight gain of the animals was not affected during the test with the exception of 3 animal, 2 female died spontaneously at day 37 of the test study. No macroscopic findings were observed at necropsy for these animals had reddened abdominal wall, reddened diaphragm, and fluid in the myocardium were observed. Hence it is considered that Triethylenediamine(280-57-9)was not skin sensitizing in guinea pig by Guinea pig maximisation test.

 It is further supported by experimental study conducted by European Commission – European Chemicals Bureau(IUCLID Dataset-European Chemicals Bureau- 18–FEB–2000) to evaluate the skin sensitizing potential of read across substance N Methyldiethanolamine ( 105-59-9)The skin sensitization study of N Methyldiethanolamine was carried out in 20 guinea pigs by guinea pig maximization test. During induction animals were first induced intradermal with 5% test material in propylene glycol and dermally with 100%.following induction challenge was performed .since results at Challenge were equivocal a Re–Challenge was performed in the same manner as the Challenge, but at concentrations of 50% and 10% N–methyldiethanolamine. In order to differentiate dermal reactions produced by irritation from those produced by sensitization, 20 animals (5/sex/Challenge; treated concurrently during Induction with only vehicle or FCA/water emulsion) were subjected to the same Challenge or Re Challenge procedures as the animals which received test material during the Induction exposures. Fourteen days after the last induction exposure, the Challenge treatment was administered topically at 100%. Eighteen of the 20 animals challenged with 100% N–methyldiethanolamine exhibited clear dermal responses. Index of Sensitization at Challenge to N–methyldiethanolamine was 90%. The Severity Indices at Challenge for the test material group at 24 and 48 hours are 0.8 and 1.8, respectively, compared to 0.8 and 1.6, respectively, for the irritation control group (out of a maximum Index of 3.0). Due to the responses seen in the irritation controls, a Re–Challenge was performed at lower, less irritating concentrations. Animals were re–challenged with both 50% and 10% N–methyldiethanolamine at separate sites. Dermal evaluations were made approximately 24 and 48 hours after the removal of Challenge/Re–Challenge patches. It was observed that the test animals treated with re-challenged dose 50% and 10% N–methyldiethanolamine were free of dermal responses. The Severity indices at Re–Challenge at 24 and 48 hours were both 0.0 for both the test group and the irritation control group. Hence the test chemical N-Methyldiethanolamine (CAS No: 105-59-9) can be considered as non-sensitizing to guinea pigs at 50% and 10% concentration.

Thus based on the above predictions on4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) as well as its read across and applying weight of evidence, it can be concluded that 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) is not a skin sensitizer. Thus comparing the above studies with the criteria of CLP regulation, 4-Methylpiperazin-1-amine (6928-85-4) can be considered as not classified for skin sensitization.
