Description of key information
- OECD 442C: negative
- OECD 442D: technically impossible due to limited solubility
- OECD 442E: technically impossible due to limited solubility
Skin sensitisation was investigated using GLP in vitro studies performed according to OECD TG 442C-E. The following results have been obtained:
The in vitro data are insufficient to conclude on the endpoint of skin sensitisation. Therefore, an additional in vivo LLNA study according to OECD 429 was performed. The test item was found to be a skin sensitiser and an EC3 value of 6.4% (w/w) was derived.

The following criteria must be met for a run to be considered valid:
a) The standard calibration curve should have an r2 > 0.99.
b) The mean percent peptide depletion value of the three replicates for the positive control cinnamic aldehyde should be between 60.8% and 100% for the cysteine peptide and between 40.2% and 69.0% for the lysine peptide and the maximum standard deviation (SD) for the positive control replicates should be < 14.9% for the percent cysteine depletion and < 11.6% for the percent lysine depletion.
c) The mean peptide concentration of reference controls A should be 0.50 ± 0.05 mM and the coefficient of variation (CV) of peptide peak areas for the nine reference controls B and C in acetonitrile should be <15.0%.
If one or more of these criteria is not met, the run would have been repeated.
The following criteria must be met for a test item’s results to be considered valid:
a) The maximum standard deviation for the test item replicates should be < 14.9% for the percent cysteine depletion and < 11.6% for the percent lysine depletion.
b) The mean peptide concentration of the three reference controls C in the appropriate solvent should be 0.50 ± 0.05 mM.
If these criteria were not met, the data would have been rejected and the run have been repeated for that specific test item. - Interpretation of results:
- other: The result has to be considered in an integrated approach.
- Conclusions:
- The test material revealed a mean cysteine and lysine peptide depletion of 0.0% and, hence, the test item is considered negative and predicted to be a non-sensitiser (no or minimal reactivity) in the Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA).
- Executive summary:
Pupose
The purpose of this study was to determine the sensitising potential of the test material in a Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA).
Methods
The study was performed according to OECD guideline 442C. The DPRA is an in chemico method which quantifies the remaining concentration of cysteine- or lysine-containing peptide following incubation with the test item. Cysteine and lysine peptide percent depletion values are then calculated and used in a prediction model, which allows assigning the test item to one of four reactivity classes used to support the discrimination between sensitisers and nonsensitisers.
Results
The test item was dissolved at a concentration of 100 mM in acetone. No precipitate in the reaction mixture at the end of the incubation time and no co-elution were observed.
The test material-treated samples revealed a cysteine peptide depletion of 0.0% and a lysine peptide depletion of 0.0% (mean peptide depletion of 0.0%) and, hence, were well
below 6.38%. The test material is considered negative and predicted to be a nonsensitiser (no or minimal reactivity) in the Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA).
Cinnamic aldehyde was used as positive control at a concentration of 100 mM in acetone. Treatment with the positive control item revealed a cysteine and lysine peptide depletion of
68.65% for cysteine and 59.73% for lysine peptide. These values are within the required range. Therefore, the study can be regarded as valid.
Conclusion
The test material revealed a mean cysteine and lysine peptide depletion of 0.0% and, hence, the test item is considered negative and predicted to be a non-sensitiser (no or
minimal reactivity) in the Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA).

The test item appeared to be insoluble in the required concentration in water. The test item was insoluble in DMSO at the required stock solution concentration of 200 mM and formed no stable suspension after addition of treatment medium. Since the KeratinoSens assay is not suitable for test items which precipitate into non stable suspensions or emulsions (defined by OECD 442D) the test item has to be considered as being technically impossible in this test. - Qualifier:

Objective
In the study the test item formulated in methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) was assessed for its possible skin sensitising potential.
Study Design
For this purpose a local lymph node assay was performed using test item concentrations of 2.5, 5, and 10 (w/w). The highest concentration tested was the highest concentration that could technically be achieved.
Results
The animals did not show any signs of systemic toxicity or local skin irritation during the course of the study and no cases of mortality were observed.
The animals treated with test item concentrations of 5 and 10% showed a very slight erythema of the ear skin (Score 1). Animals treated with 2.5% test item concentration did not show any signs of local skin irritation.
In this study Stimulation Indices (S.I.) of 1.5, 2.5, and 4.3 were determined with the test item at concentrations of 2.5, 5, and 10% in MEK, respectively. A clear dose response was observed.
Conclusion
The test item was found to be a skin sensitiser and an EC3 value of 6.4% (w/w) was derived.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- adverse effect observed (sensitising)
- Additional information:
In vitro skin sensitisation
The KeratinoSens Assay as well as the h-Clat are technical impossible due to the limited solubility of the test item in the solvents according to the appropriate OECD Guideline.
In the Directive Peptide Reactivity Assay (DPRA), the test material revealed a mean cysteine and lysine peptide depletion of 0.0% and, hence, the test item is considered negative and predicted to be a non-sensitiser (no or minimal reactivity) .
However, the in vitro data are insufficient for a conclusion on classification an labelling and therefore an in vivo LLNA assay according to OECD 429 was conducted.
In vivo skin sensitization test
In this study Stimulation Indices (S.I.) of 1.5, 2.5, and 4.3 were determined with the test item at concentrations of 2.5, 5, and 10% in MEK, respectively. A clear dose response was observed. The test item was found to be a skin sensitiser and an EC3 value of 6.4% (w/w) was derived.
