Description of key information

The skin sensitization potential of target chemical C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) was assessed in various experimental studies which were conducted on guinea and humans for target chemical C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) andits structurally similar read across substancesD & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1)andD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9). The predicted data using QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data. Based on the available data for the target and read across substances and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that chemical C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) is unable to cause skin sensitization and thus can be considered as not sensitizing. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

Endpoint conclusion:

Additional information:

Various studies has been investigated for the test chemicalC.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4)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 humans for target chemicalC.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) and its structurally similar read across substancesD & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1)andD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9) .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 C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 with log Pow as the primary descriptor. The substance C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) was estimated to be not sensitizing to the skin of guinea pigs. Based on the estimated result C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) failed to induce skin sanitization effects and hence is considered to be not sensitizing to guinea pigs.

 

The above result was further supported by the patch test conducted by the Guin JD. (2003) forstructurally similar read across substanceD & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1) andD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9) to determine the allergic contact dermatitis caused by the chemicals on human patients. These patch tests were conducted on 15 patients for chemical D & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1) while for chemicalD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9) this test was conducted on 14 patients. Each dye was applied in Finn Chambers and read first at 2 or (more commonly) 3 days and again at 4–7 days. The reactions of the patients were graded as ‘?+ ‘ , ‘+’ and ‘++’ categories. None of the treated patients showed any signs of allergic contact dermatitis for both the chemicals. Hence the chemicals D & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1) andD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9) can be considered as non-sensitizer to human skin.

 

Thus on the basis of available data for thetarget chemicalC.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) and its structurally similar read across substancesD & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1)andD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9),it can be concluded thatchemical C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) 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 C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) and its structurally similar read across substancesD & C Red No. 6 (CAS no: 5858-81-1)andD&C Red 36(CAS no: 2814-77-9) were observed in various studies. From the results obtained from these studies it is concluded that the chemical C.I. Pigment Red 23 (CAS No: 6471-49-4) is not likely to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non-skin sensitizer.
