Description of key information

The skin sensitization potential of Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate (140-04-5) was estimated by SSS (2017) using OECD QSAR toolbox v3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the six closest read across substances. Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate(140-04-5) was predicted to be non sensitizing to the skin of male and femaleDunkin-Hartley guinea pig.

Additional information:

Skin sensitization

In different studies, Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate (140-04-5) has been investigated for potential for dermal sensitization to a greater or lesser extent. The prediction and studies are based on in vivo experiments in guinea pig for target chemical disodium Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate (140-04-5) and its structurally similar read across substances Dodeca-1,3-dien-1-yl acetate (54364-62-4)andMethyllaurate (111-82-0). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox and DANISH QSAR have also been compared with the experimental data of read across.

The skin sensitization potential of Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate (140-04-5) was estimated by SSS (2017) using OECD QSAR toolbox v3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the six closest read across substances. Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate(140-04-5) was predicted to be non sensitizing to the skin of male and femaleDunkin-Hartley guinea pig.

Another Prediction done by Danish QSAR (2017), to evaluate the skin sensitization potential of Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate(140-04-5) .Using Battery algorithm model of Danish QSAR, Allergic Contact Dermatitis for Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate(140-04-5) estimated to be not sensitizing when applied to human and guinea pig skin.

Further supported by experimental data conducted byEuropean Food Safety Authority (EFSA, DAR, 2008) on structurally similar read across substance Dodeca-1,3-dien-1-yl acetate (54364-62-4)on guinea pigs.The read across substances share high similarity in structure and log kow .Therefore, it is acceptable to derive information on skin sensitization from the analogue substance. The skin sensitization study of Dodeca-1,3-dien-1-yl acetatewas performed  by Guinea pig maximization test using Pirbright white , DunkinHartley HOE DHPK (SPF-LAC)BO guinea pig .In induction phase , intradermal injection :0.1ml FCA , 5% test substance in olive oil DAB9 and test substance formulation in FCA were used ,after 24hr reading was noted .after one week epicutaneous application of 0.3 g of test substance ( 75% test substance in olive oil DAB 9)was applied for 48 hr as occlusive patch. Reading noted after 48 hr.In challenge phase, 21 days after intradermal injection0.15 g test substance formulation(50%test substance in vehicle) was applied at two different site for a period of 24hr .reading were performed after 24 and 48hr after removal of patch . No sensitization was observed.In addition, 13/20 animals showed very slight oedema. From above finding it is considered that Dodeca-1,3-dien-1-yl acetate was  considered to be not sensitizing in guinea pig.

It is further supported by an experimental study conducted  by Mr. Takashi Ikeda, (SIDS Initial Assessment Report for CoCAM ,2013)on structurally similar read across substance Methyllaurate (111-82-0)on guinea pigs.The skin sensitization study of Methyllauratewas performed in Dunkin-Hartley guinea pig by Guinea pig maximization test.In induction phase, intradermal injection of 50% dilution of test substance was given, after that for epidermal induction100% test substance concentration used. In challenge phase, 20% concentration of test substance used for application result was observed after 24hr and 48hr. No skin sensitization reaction was observed in 10 test animals. Hence it is concluded that Methyllaurate (111 -82 -0) was negative skin sensitizer in guinea pig.

.

Thus based on the above predictions on Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate (140-04-5) as well as its read across substances and applying weight of evidence, it can be concluded that Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate is not a skin sensitizer. Thus comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, Butyl 12-acetoxyoctadec-9-enoate (140-04-5) can be considered as not classified for skin sensitization effects.
