Description of key information

The skin sensitization potential of Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log Pow as the primary descriptor. The substance Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) was estimated to be not sensitizing to the skin of guinea pigs. Based on the estimated result Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) failed to induce skin sanitization effects and hence is considered to be not sensitizing to guinea pigs.

Additional information:

Various studieshas been investigated for the test chemicalPyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3)to observe the potential for skin sensitization to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in guinea pigs and mouse for target chemicalPyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) and its structurally similar read across substances2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine (CAS No: 16867-03-1) and Pyridine (CAS NO: 110-86-1). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data and summarized as below;

The skin sensitization potential of Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log Pow as the primary descriptor. The substance Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) was estimated to be not sensitizing to the skin of guinea pigs. Based on the estimated result Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) failed to induce skin sanitization effects and hence is considered to be not sensitizing to guinea pigs.

 

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review Expert Panel (2014) assessed the contact hypersensitivity ofstructurally similar read across substance2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine (CAS No: 16867-03-1) in a local lymph node assay (LLNA)in CBA female mice which supports the above mentioned result.CBA female mice were divided into groups of 5 and received 0%, 5%, 25%, or 50% of the test material in ethanol:water (7:3, v/v) on the ear surface (25 μl/ear) once daily for 3 consecutive days. Clinical signs of toxicity were assessed daily, body weights were measured on days 1 and 6, and on day 3, skin reactions were assessed. On day 6, all animals were injected intravenous-ly with 20μCi [3H] methyl thymidine and the proliferation of lymphocytes in the draining lymph nodes was measured andThe stimulation indices (SI) were calculated. The mean disintegrations per minute (DMP)/animal values for the each test group were 113, 332, 192, and 220 for the 0%, 5%, 25%, and 50% dose groups, respectively. The SI were 2.9, 1.7, and 1.9 for the 5%, 25%, and 50% dose groups, respectively.No clinical signs of toxicity, deaths, or skin reactions occurred during the treatment period in any dose group. Visual observations found the lymph nodes were all of equal size.Sincethere was no indication that 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine(CAS No: 16867-03-1)could elicit an SI greater than 3, it was considered that 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine(CAS No: 16867-03-1)was not a skin sensitizer in this LLNA.

 

The above results were further supported by the experimental study conducted by the MAK Collection for Occupational Health and Safety (2012) forstructurally similar read across substance Pyridine (CAS NO: 110-86-1) on guinea pigs to determine its skin sensitizing potential. No Skin sensitization reactions were observed in treated animals when exposed to the chemical Pyridine (CAS NO: 110-86-1). Hence Pyridine (CAS NO: 110-86-1)was considered to be not sensitizing to the skin ofguinea pigs.

 

Thus on the basis of available data for thetargetPyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) and its structurally similar read across substances2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine (CAS No: 16867-03-1) and Pyridine (CAS NO: 110-86-1),it can be concluded thatchemical 4-Ethoxybenzoic acid (CAS No: 619-86-3) is unable to cause skin sensitization and considered as non skin sensitizer.Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The skin sensitization potential of test substance Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) and its structurally similar read across substances2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine (CAS No: 16867-03-1) and Pyridine (CAS NO: 110-86-1) were observed in various studies. From the results obtained from these studies it is concluded that the chemical Pyridin-2-ol 1-oxide (CAS No: 13161-30-3) is not likely to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non skin sensitizer.
