Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Derek result: no alerts matched.
Conclusions:
Using Derek Nexus v5.0, no skin sensitising properties of the test item were estimated. The substance is within the applicability domain of the model. Thus the estimation can be regarded as accurate.
Executive summary:

The skin sensitising properties were estimated using Derek Nexus v5.0. No skin sensitising properties were estimated based on the described QSAR method (Derek, 2017).

The adequacy of a prediction depends on the following conditions:

a) the (Q)SAR model is scientifically valid: the scientific validity is established according to the OECD principles for (Q)SAR validation;

b) the (Q)SAR model is applicable to the query chemical: a (Q)SAR is applicable if the query chemical falls within the defined applicability domain of the model;

c) the (Q)SAR result is reliable: a valid (Q)SAR that is applied to a chemical falling within its applicability domain provides a reliable result;

d) the (Q)SAR model is relevant for the regulatory purpose.

For assessment and justification of these 4 requirements the QMRF and QPRF files were developed and attached to this study record.

 

Description of the prediction Model

The prediction model was descripted using the harmonised template for summarising and reporting key information on (Q)SAR models. For more details please refer to the attached QSAR Model Reporting Format (QMRF) file. 

 

Assessment of estimation domain

The assessment of the estimation domain was documented in the QSAR Prediction Reporting Format file (QPRF). Please refer to the attached document for the details of the prediction and the assessment of the estimation domain.
