Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
other: U.S. Federal Hazardous Substances Act Consumer Product Safety Commission16 CFR § 1500.41 - Method of testing primary irritant substances
Version / remarks:
Formerly U.S. Federal Hazardous Substances Act Food and Drug Commission 21 CFR § 191.11
Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Principle of test: The method of testing the dermal corrosivity and primary irritation of substances referred to in § 1500.3(c)(3) and (4), respectively, is a patch-test technique on the abraded and intact skin of the albino rabbit, clipped free of hair. An equal number of exposures are made on areas of skin that have been previously abraded. The abrasions are minor incisions through the stratum corneum, but not sufficiently deep to disturb the derma or to produce bleeding.
- Short description of test conditions: Primary irritation to the skin is measured by a patch-test technique on the abraded and intact skin of the albino rabbit, clipped free of hair. A minimum of six subjects are used in abraded and intact skin tests. Introduce under a square patch, such as surgical gauze measuring 1 inch by 1 inch and two single layers thick, 0.5 milliliter (in the case of liquids) or 0.5 gram (in the case of solids and semisolids) of the test substance. Dissolve solids in an appropriate solvent and apply the solution as for liquids. The animals are immobilized with patches secured in place by adhesive tape. The entire trunk of the animal is then wrapped with an impervious material, such as rubberized cloth, for the 24-hour period of exposure. This material aids in maintaining the test patches in position and retards the evaporation of volatile substances.

- Parameters analysed / observed: After 24 hours of exposure, the patches are removed and the resulting reactions are evaluated on the basis of the following designated values:

Erythema and eschar formation:
No erythema 0
Very slight erythema (barely perceptible) 1
Well-defined erythema 2
Moderate to severe erythema 3
Severe erythema (beet redness) to slight eschar formations (injuries in depth) 4

Edema formation:
No edema 0
Very slight edema (barely perceptible) 1
Slight edema (edges of area well defined by definite raising) 2
Moderate edema (raised approximately 1 millimeter) 3
Severe edema (raised more than 1 millimeter and extending beyond the area of exposure) 4

The “value” recorded for each reading is the average value of the six or more animals subject to the test. Readings are again made at the end of a total of 72 hours (48 hours after the first reading). Evaluate the reactions of the abraded skin at 24 hours and 72 hours, as described in this paragraph. Add the values for erythema and eschar formation at 24 hours and at 72 hours for intact skin to the values on abraded skin at 24 hours and at 72 hours (four values). Similarly, add the values for edema formation at 24 hours and at 72 hours for intact and abraded skin (four values). The total of the eight values is divided by four to give the primary irritation score

Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.5 mL
- Concentration (if solution): undiluted
Duration of treatment / exposure:
Both abbraded and intact skin of the albino rabbit, clipped free of hair were used in this study. The abrasions are minor incisions through the stratum corneum, but not sufficiently deep to disturb the derma or to produce bleeding. The test material is held against the skin for 24 hours by a dermal patch covered with an occlusive dressing.
Observation period:
24 and 72 hours post application
Number of animals:
Six
Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- Area of exposure: 1 inch x 1 inch
- Type of wrap if used: impervious material such as rubberized cloth

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): not specified
- Time after start of exposure: 24 hours

OBSERVATION TIME POINTS (indicate if minutes, hours or days): 24 and 72 hours

SCORING SYSTEM:
- Method of calculation: After 24 hours of exposure, the patches are removed and the resulting reactions are evaluated on the basis of the following designated values:

Erythema and eschar formation:
No erythema 0
Very slight erythema (barely perceptible) 1
Well-defined erythema 2
Moderate to severe erythema 3
Severe erythema (beet redness) to slight eschar formations (injuries in depth) 4

Edema formation:
No edema 0
Very slight edema (barely perceptible) 1
Slight edema (edges of area well defined by definite raising) 2
Moderate edema (raised approximately 1 millimeter) 3
Severe edema (raised more than 1 millimeter and extending beyond the area of exposure) 4

The “value” recorded for each reading is the average value of the six or more animals subject to the test. Readings are again made at the end of a total of 72 hours (48 hours after the first reading). Evaluate the reactions of the abraded skin at 24 hours and 72 hours, as described in this paragraph. Add the values for erythema and eschar formation at 24 hours and at 72 hours for intact skin to the values on abraded skin at 24 hours and at 72 hours (four values). Similarly, add the values for edema formation at 24 hours and at 72 hours for intact and abraded skin (four values). The total of the eight values is divided by four to give the primary irritation score. A primary irritation index score of 5.0 or more was considered to indicate a primary dermal irritant.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not Irritating
Conclusions:
Hydrazine Carboximidamide, 2-((2-hydroxyphenyl)methylene)-, reaction products with 2 undecanone did not produce evidence of primary skin irritation or corrosion in an in-vivo assay. While the exposure conditions do not align with current GHS criteria, the occlusive dressing and prolonged exposure time represent a worse case sceanrio. The low mean erythema and edema scores following such a prolonged exposure do not warrant classification of Hydrazine Carboximidamide, 2-((2-hydroxyphenyl)methylene)-, reaction products with 2 undecanone as a dermal irritant.
Executive summary:

The mean erythema and edema scores for Hydrazine Carboximidamide, 2-((2-hydroxyphenyl)methylene)-, reaction products with 2 undecanone on unabraded skin were 1.0 and 0.2 respectively. These findings do not warrant classification of Hydrazine Carboximidamide, 2-((2-hydroxyphenyl)methylene)-, reaction products with 2 undecanone as a dermal irritant under the new Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling, and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP).
