Description of key information
The skin sensitisation potential of the substance N-[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino]ethyl]-N-(1-oxononyl)glycine (100% purity) was assessed in two in vitro skin sensitisation studies conducted according to OECD 442E and OECD 442D. In the first study conducted according to OECD 442E, the sensitisation potential of the substance was assessed based on the activation of dendritic cells using the in vitro human cell line activation test (h-CLAT). In the second study conducted according to OECD 442D, the skin sensitisation potential of the substance was assessed based on the activation of keratinocytes using the in vitro KeratinoSens cell line. Both in vitro assays showed no skin sensitisation potential of N-[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino]ethyl]-N-(1-oxononyl)glycine.

TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
- Treatment of test material prior to testing (e.g. warming, grinding): The test item was soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide at a maximal soluble concentration of 312.5 mg/mL. Vortex mixing, sonication and warming to 37 °C were used to aid solubilisation. - Details of test system:
- THP-1 cell line [442E]
- Details on the study design:
- 442E
PREPARATION OF TEST SOLUTIONS
- Preparation of the test chemical stock solution: The test item was soluble in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO, CAS No.: 67-68-5, purity ≥ 99%) at a maximal soluble concentration of 312.5 mg/mL. From this initial solution, 8 stock solutions were prepared by 1:1.2 dilution.
- Preparation of the test chemical serial dilutions: The working stock solutions were prepared by diluting each stock solution 250 times with cell culture medium. The working stock solutions were applied to the cells by adding equal volumes of each working solution to prepared cells, resulting in a further 1:2 dilution of the working solutions.
- Preparation of the positive controls: 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene at a final concentration of 4 µg/mL was tested concurrently with the test item. DNCB was dissolved in DMSO and diluted, resulting in a final DMSO concentration of 0.2% (v/v)
- Preparation of the solvent, vehicle and negative controls: The solvent controls were diluted (mixed 1:1 (v/v) with the cell suspensions prepared in the 24-well plate), resulting in a final concentration of 0.2% (v/v) of DMSO.
- Stable dispersion obtained: yes, it was taken care that the test chemical was dissolved or stably dispersed in the chosen solvent and that it did not interfere with the test design.
DOSE RANGE FINDING ASSAY:
- Highest concentration used: 312.5 mg/mL (maximal soluble concentration in DMSO (solvent). From this starting solution, eight stock solutions (eight concentrations) were prepared by 2-fold serial dilutions using the corresponding solvent. These stock solutions were further diluted 250-fold (DMSO) into culture medium (working solutions). The working solutions were finally used for treatment by adding an equal volume of working solution to the volume of THP-1 cell suspension in a 96-well plate to achieve a further 2-fold dilution.
- Results of selecting appropriate concentration and determination of cytotoxicity e.g. CV75: The CV75 value, i.e. the concentration showing 75% cell survival, was calculated by log-linear interpolation. The CV75 value was used to calculate the concentration range of the test item for the main experiment. The dose finding assay was performed in one independent run. Since there was no cytotoxicity, no CV75 could be derived. The main experiment was performed covering a concentration range from 625– 4.88 µg/mL (312.50– 2.44 mg/mL stock solution) corresponding to the maximal soluble concentration of the test item.
APPLICATION OF THE TEST CHEMICAL AND CONTROL SUBSTANCES
- Number of replicates: single replicates
- Number of repetitions: two independent experiments
- Test chemical concentrations: 625.00, 520.83, 434.03, 361.69, 301.41, 251.17, 209.31, 174.43 µg/mL
- Application procedure: For testing, THP-1 cells were pre-cultured for 48 h – 72 in culture flasks at a cell density of 0.1 – 0.2 x 10E6 cells/mL. Prior to test item application, cells were harvested from the cell culture flask by centrifugation (125 x g) and were re-suspended in fresh culture medium at a density of 2 x 10E6 cells/mL. Then, 500 µL of the cell suspension were seeded into a 24 well flat-bottom plate (1 x 10E6 cells/well).
The solvent controls, the positive control and the working solutions were mixed 1:1 (v/v) with the cell suspensions prepared in the 24-well plate. Treated plates were incubated for 24 h ± 0.5 h at 37 °C ± 1 °C and 5% CO2.
- Exposure time: 24 h ± 0.5 h
- Study evaluation and decision criteria used: For test chemicals classified as sensitiser the effective concentration 150 for CD86 (EC150) and the effective concentration 200 for CD54 (EC200) can be calculated with the following equation:
EC150=B_dose+[((150-B_RFI)/((A_RFI-B_RFI ))*(A_dose-B_dose )]
EC200=B_dose+[((200-B_RFI ))/((A_RFI-B_RFI ) )*(A_dose-B_dose )]
If the RFI value of the lowest dose is above the positive criteria of CD86 and CD54, the EC150 and EC200 values can be calculated using the lowest dose by log linear extrapolation according to the following equation:
EC150=2^{〖log〗_2 (B_dose )+(150-B_RFI)/(A_RFI-B_RFI )*[(〖log〗_2 (A_dose )-〖log〗_2 (B_dose )]}
EC200=2^{〖log〗_2 (B_dose )+(200-B_RFI)/(A_RFI-B_RFI )*[(〖log〗_2 (A_dose )-〖log〗_2 (B_dose )]}
Adose is the lowest concentration in µg/mL with RFI > 150 (CD86) or 200 (CD54)
Bdose is the highest concentration in µg/mL with RFI < 150 (CD86) or 200 (CD54)
ARFI is the RFI at the lowest concentration with RFI > 150 (CD86) or 200 (CD54)
BRFI is the RFI at the highest concentration with RFI < 150 (CD86) or 200 (CD54)
For the purpose of more precisely deriving the EC150 and EC200 values, three independent runs should be performed for CD86/CD54 expression measurement. The EC150 and EC200 values are the median value of the ECs calculated from three independent runs. In order to obtain a median value, three independent runs are necessary. If only two of three independent runs meet the positive criteria, the higher EC150 or EC200 of the two calculated values is adopted. The EC values could potentially contribute to the assessment of sensitising potency when used in integrated approaches such as IATA.
- Description on study acceptance criteria:
The test meets acceptance criteria if:
• the cell viability of the medium and the solvent controls is >90%,
• the cell viability of at least four tested doses of the test item in each run is >50%,
• the RFI values of the positive control (DNCB) is ≥150% for CD86 and ≥200% for CD54 at a cell viability of >50%,
• the RFI values of the solvent control is not ≥150% for CD86 and not ≥200% for CD54,
• the MFI ratio of CD86 and CD54 to isotype IgG1 control for the medium and DMSO control, is >105%.
SEEDING AND INCUBATION
- Seeding conditions (passage number and seeding density): Cells at passage number (<30) were used. Cells are routinely passaged every 2-3 days at a density of 0.1 – 0.2 x 10E6 cells/mL. Cells were cultured in 175 cm2 culture flasks (Greiner) in Roswell Park Memorial Institute medium (RPMI-1640) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum, 25 mM HEPES, L-glutamine, 0.05 mM 2-mercaptoethanol and 100 U/ml penicillin / 100 µg/mL streptomycin in a humidified incubator at 37 ± 1°C and 5% CO2.
- Incubation conditions: The solvent controls, the positive control and the working solutions were mixed 1:1 (v/v) with the cell suspensions prepared in the 24-well plate. Treated plates were incubated for 24 h ± 0.5 h at 37 °C ± 1 °C and 5% CO2.
- Washing conditions: After 24 h ± 0.5 h of exposure, cells were transferred into sample tubes and collected by centrifugation (approx. 250 x g). The following steps were carried out on ice with pre-cooled buffers and solutions. The supernatant was discarded and the remaining cells were washed twice with FACS buffer.
MEASUREMENT OF CELL SURFACE EXPRESSION/LUCIFERASE ACTIVITY:
After washing, cells were blocked using 600 µL of a FcR blocking buffer (FACS buffer containing 0.01% (w/v) Globulin Cohn Fraction) and incubated at 4 °C for 15 min. After blocking, cells were split in three aliquots into a 96-well V-bottom plate. After centrifugation (approx. 250 x g), cells were stained with 50 µL of FITC-labelled anti-CD86, anti-CD54, or mouse IgG1 (isotype) antibodies in the dark for 30 min. All antibodies were diluted in FACS buffer at an appropriate manner. After washing with FACS buffer two times, cells were re-suspended in FACS buffer and PI solution was added. PI staining was done immediately prior to the measurement by adding PI solutions to each sample (final concentration of PI was 0.625 µg/mL).
The expression levels of CD86 and CD54 as well as cell viability were analysed by flow cytometry using an excitation wavelength of λ = 488 nm and an emission wavelength of λ = 530 nm ± 15 nm for FITC and λ > 650 nm for PI. Based on the geometric mean fluorescence intensity (MFI), the relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) of CD86 and CD54 and the cell viability was calculated.
DATA EVALUATION
- Cytotoxicity assessment: PI staining
- Prediction model used:
For CD86/CD54 expression measurement, each test item was tested in at least two independent runs to derive a single prediction. Each independent run was performed on a different day or on the same day provided that for each run: independent fresh stock solutions and working solutions of the test chemicals and antibody solutions were prepared and independently harvested cells were used.
Sensitising potential of the test item was predicted from the mean percentage expression of CD86 and CD54. Any test chemical tested by the h-CLAT was considered positive if the RFI of CD86 was equal to or greater than 150% at any tested dose at a cell viability ≥ 50% in at least two independent runs or if the RFI of CD54 was equal to or greater than 200% at any tested dose at a cell viability ≥ 50% in at least two independent runs or if the RFIs of both the CD86 and CD54 were equal to or are greater than 150% and 200% respectively at any tested dose at a cell viability ≥ 50% in at least two independent runs. In case of not concordant results a third run should be conducted to make the final prediction. Otherwise the results were considered as inconclusive.
A negative test result of a test item was only accepted if the cell viability at a concentration of 1.2 x CV75 is <90%. In contrast, a positive test outcome was accepted irrespective of cell viabilities >90% at a concentration of 1.2 x CV75. If no CV75 could be derived negative test results can be accepted when the test item is tested at the highest soluble concentration (5000 µg/mL for 0.9% NaCl solution; 1000 µg/mL for DMSO or a different organic solvent) even if the cell viability is >90%. - Vehicle / solvent control:
- DMSO
- Negative control:
- not applicable
- Positive control:
- dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) [442E]
- Positive control results:
- The positive control led to an upregulation of CD54 and CD86 in all experiments. The threshold of 150% for CD86 (234% experiment 1; 316% experiment 2;) and 200% for CD54 (251% experiment 1; 447% experiment 2) were clearly exceeded.

- Executive summary:
In a skin sensitisation study conducted according to OECD 442E with N-[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino]ethyl]-N-(1-oxononyl)Glycine (100 % purity), the sensitisation potential of the test item was assessed on the basis of the activation of dendritic cells using the in vitro human cell line activation test (h-CLAT). Cells were incubated with the test item in a concentration range of 174.43 to 625.00 µg/ml (based on stock concentrations of 87.21 to 312.5 mg/ml) for 24 h at 37 °C and later checked for cell viability and expression of CD86 and CD54 cell surface markers. Sensitisation was scored by measuring cell viability and checking the expression of both cell surface markers. CD54 and CD86 were not upregulated above the threshold of 200% (CD54) and 150% (CD86) in two experiments. Based on these results, the test item is not considered to be a skin sensitiser under the UN GHS criteria.

TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
- Treatment of test material prior to testing (e.g. warming, grinding): The test item was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide. Vortex mixing and sonication were used to aid solubilisation. - Details of test system:
- Keratinoses transgenic cell line [442D]
- Details on the study design:
- PREPARATION OF TEST SOLUTIONS
- Preparation of the test chemical stock solution: The test item was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide. A stock solution of 200 mM was prepared by pre-weighing the test material into a suitable tube. Vortex mixing and sonication were used to aid solubilisation.
- Preparation of the test chemical serial dilutions: Based on the stock solution a set of twelve master solutions in 100% solvent was prepared. The stock solution of the test item was diluted eleven times using a constant dilution factor of 1:2. Then the 100x concentrated master solutions were further diluted 1:25 in cell culture medium resulting in a 4% share of the solvent.
These 4x concentrated test item solutions were finally diluted 1:4 when incubated with the cells. Based on this procedure the final concentration of the solvent was 1% (v/v) in all test item concentrations and controls.
- Preparation of the positive controls: Cinnamic aldehyde was dissolved in DMSO at a concentration of 6.4 mM and was further diluted four times with a constant dilution factor of 1:2 resulting in a concentration range of 0.4 mM – 6.4 mM. The following preparation of the positive control was carried out analogous to the preparation of the test item, resulting in a final concentration range of 4 µM – 64 µM. The final concentration of the solvent DMSO was 1% (v/v) for all wells.
- Preparation of the solvent, vehicle and negative controls: Negative control: DMSO at a final concentration of 1% (v/v) in test item exposure medium was used as negative control. Six wells were included in every testing plate. The preparation of the negative control was carried out analogous to the test item.
APPLICATION OF THE TEST CHEMICAL AND CONTROL SUBSTANCES
- Number of replicates: 3 (negative control: 6)
- Number of repetitions: 2
- Test chemical concentrations: 2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.63, 7.81, 3.91, 1.95, 0.98 µM
- Application procedure: After seeding cells were grown for 24 h ± 1 h in assay medium at 37 °C ± 1 °C and 5% CO2. Thereafter, the assay medium was discarded and replaced by 150 µL test item exposure medium. 50 µL of the 4x master concentrations prepared shortly before were transferred to the luciferase and cell viability plates.
- Exposure time: 48 h ± 1 h
- Study evaluation and decision criteria used: A KeratinoSens™ prediction is considered positive if the following conditions will be met in at least two independently prepared test repetitions:
- Imax is >1.5 fold increased and statistically significant (p <0.05) compared to the negative control
- cell viability is >70% at the lowest concentration with an induction of luciferase activity >1.5
- EC1.5 value is <1000 µM
- an apparent overall dose-response for luciferase induction
If in a given repetition, all of the three first conditions are met but a clear dose-response for the luciferase induction cannot be observed, the result of that repetition is considered as inconclusive and further testing may be required. In addition, a negative result obtained with test items at a maximal test concentration < 1000 µM and which do not reach cytotoxicity (< 70% viability) at the maximal tested concentration is considered as inconclusive. A negative result for test items with a log KOW > 7 has to be interpreted with care due to the applicability of the test method.
- Description on study acceptance criteria: The test meets acceptance criteria if:
- the luciferase activity induction of the positive control is statistically significant above the threshold of 1.5 (using a t-test) in at least one of the tested concentrations
- the average induction in the three technical replicates for the positive control at a concentration of 64 µM is between 2 and 8
- the EC1.5 value of the positive control is within two standard deviations of the historical mean
- the average coefficient of variation (CV; consisting of 6 wells) of the luminescence reading for the negative (solvent) control DMSO is <20% in each repetition.
SEEDING AND INCUBATION
- Seeding conditions (passage number and seeding density): Only cells at a low passage number <25 (P 10 in experiment 1; P 20 in experiment 2) were used. A cell suspension of 8 × 10E4 cells/mL in assay medium was prepared. 125 µL of the cell suspension corresponding to 1 × 10E4 cells were dispensed in each well, except for the blank.
- Incubation conditions: 37 °C ± 1 °C and 5% CO2
- Washing conditions: Cells were washed once with DPBS.
LUCIFERASE ACTIVITY MEASUREMENTS
- Plate used: white 96-well plates (flat bottom)
- Lysate preparation: After 48 h ± 1 h of exposure, the supernatant was aspirated from the white assay plates and discarded. Cells were washed once with DPBS. Subsequently 20 µL of passive lysis buffer were added into each well and the plate was incubated for 20 min at room temperature in the absence of light.
Plates with the cell lysate were placed in the plate reader for luminescence measurement. Per well 50 µL of the luciferase substrate were injected by the injector of the plate reader. The plate reader waited for 1 sec. before assessing the luciferase activity for 2 sec. This procedure was repeated for each individual well.
DATA EVALUATION
- Cytotoxicity assessment: For the cell viability plate the medium was replaced with 200 µL test item exposure medium. 27 µL MTT solution (5 mg/mL MTT in DPBS) were added directly to each individual well. The plate was covered with a sealing tape and incubated for 4 h at 37 °C ± 1 °C and 5% CO2. Afterwards the medium was removed and replaced by 200 µL 10% SDS solution per well. The plate was covered with sealing tape and incubated in the incubator at 37 °C ± 1 °C and 5% CO2 overnight. After the incubation period the plate was shaken for 10 min and the OD was measured at λ = 600 nm. - Vehicle / solvent control:

- Conclusions:
- In this in vitro skin sensitisation study (OECD 442D), the test item did not induce the luciferase activity in the transgenic KeratinoSens™ cell line in two independent experiment runs. Therefore, the test item can be considered as non-sensitiser.
- Executive summary:
In an in vitro skin sensitisation assay conducted according to OECD 442D with N-[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino]ethyl]-N-(1-oxononyl)Glycine (100% purity) in DMSO, the sensitisation potential of the test item was assessed on the basis of the activation of keratinocytes using the in vitro KeratinoSens™ cell line. Cells were incubated with the test item up to the maximum recommended concentration of 2000 µM for 48 h at 37 °C and later checked for luciferase activity. Sensitisation was scored by measuring maximum luciferase activity induction (Imax), cell viability and EC1.5. For both experiments 1 and 2, no significant luciferase induction > 1.5 was observed within the tested concentration range. Therefore, no EC1.5 value could be calculated. The maximum induction over control (Imax) was 1.26 in experiment 1 and 1.15 in experiment 2 (mean Imax: 1.21). Maximum cytotoxicity was observed at 2000 µM, with a mean cell viability of 88.7%. The controls confirmed the validity of the study.
Based on the results, the test item N-[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino]ethyl]-N-(1-oxononyl)Glycine is considered to be a non-sensitiser.
