PREPARATION OF TEST SOLUTIONS
- Preparation of the test chemical stock solution: Saline was used to dissolve the test item for the stock solution (SS) in the preliminary and the main test. In the main test, the test item was first diluted to the concentration corresponding to the highest soluble concentration (HSC - 50 mg/mL) determined in the solubility and preliminary test
- Preparation of the test chemical serial dilutions: In the main test, for the master solutions (MS), 1.2-fold serial dilutions were made from the stock solution using saline (eight concentrations were prepared from the test item stock solution at the concentration of 50.6.0 mg/mL in the first test and at concentration of 50.1 mg/mL in the second test). The master solutions were then further diluted 50-fold into the culture medium to obtain the working solutions (WS). These working solutions were finally used for exposure with a further final 2-fold dilution factor in the plate.
- Preparation of the positive controls: DNCB was used as the positive control for CD86/CD54 expression measurement at a final nominal concentration of 4.0 μg/mL in the plate. To obtain a 4.0 μg/mL concentration a 2 mg/mL stock solution of DNCB in DMSO were prepared and further diluted 250-fold with culture medium to an 8.0 μg/mL working solution. The working solution then was diluted 2-fold when added to the cells.
- Preparation of the solvent, vehicle and negative controls: Culture medium was used as negative control for the test item and to assess the impact of DMSO. Moreover, DMSO was used as a solvent control for the positive control (DNCB) at a single final concentration in the plate of 0.2 %. To obtain a 0.2 % concentration, DMSO was diluted 250-fold with culture medium to a 0.4 % working solution. The working solution then was diluted 2-fold when added to the cells.
- Stable dispersion obtained: Yes
- Log Kow of the test chemical: < 3.5
DOSE RANGE FINDING ASSAY:
- Highest concentration used: 500.0 µg/mL
- Highest soluble concentration (in solvents and/or incubation medium): 500.0 µg/mL
- Results of selecting appropriate concentration and determination of cytotoxicity e.g. CV75: The highest soluble concentration of 500.0 µg/mL was not cytotoxic.
- Final concentration range selected on basis of: 139.5 to 500 µg/mL based on highest soluble concentration and dilution series with a dilution factor of 1/1.2.
APPLICATION OF THE TEST CHEMICAL AND CONTROL SUBSTANCES
- Number of replicates: 3
- Number of repetitions: 2 (runs)
- Test chemical concentrations: 139.5, 167.5, 200.9, 241.1, 289.4, 347.2, 416.7, 500 µg/mL
- Application procedure: The culture medium or working solutions were mixed 1:1 (v/v) with the cell suspensions prepared in the 24-well plate.
- Exposure time: 24 ± 0.5 hours
- Study evaluation and decision criteria used: If the RFI of CD86 is equal to or greater than 150 % at any tested dose (>50 % of cell viability) in at least 2 independent runs, AND/OR if the RFI of CD54 is equal to or greater than 200 % at any tested dose (>50 % of cell viability) in at least 2 independent runs, the test item prediction is considered as positive. Otherwise, it is considered as a negative.
In case the first two independent runs are not concordant a third run needs to be performed and the final prediction will be based on the mode of conclusions from the three individual runs.
- Description on study acceptance criteria:
- The cell viabilities of medium and solvent/vehicle controls should be higher than 90 %.
- In the positive control (DNCB), relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) values of both CD86 and CD54 should be over the positive criteria (CD86 RFI ≥ 150 % and CD54 RFI ≥ 200 %) and cell viability should be more than 50 %.
- In the solvent/vehicle controls, RFI values compared to the medium control of both CD86 and CD54 should not exceed the positive criteria (CD86 RFI ≥ 150 % and
CD54 RFI ≥ 200 %)
- For both medium and solvent controls, the MFI ratio of both CD86 and CD54 to isotype control should be >105 %.
- For the test chemical, the cell viability should be more than 50 % in at least four tested concentrations in each run.
- For the test chemical resulting in negative outcome, the cell viability at the 1.2 x CV75 should be less than 90 %. When the test item is tested 5000 µg/mL in saline (maintenance medium alternatively) or 1000 µg/mL in DMSO or the highest soluble concentration is used as the maximal test concentration, a negative result is acceptable even if the cell viability is above 90 %.
- For the test chemical resulting in positive outcome, the cell viability at the 1.2 x CV75 is more than 90 %, the data is acceptable
SEEDING AND INCUBATION
- Seeding conditions (passage number and seeding density): THP-1 cells (passage 6) were seeded at a density of either 0.1 × 106 cells/mL or 0.2 × 106 cells/mL, and precultured in culture flasks for 72 hours or 48 hours respectively
- Incubation conditions: 37° C under 5 % CO2
MEASUREMENT OF CELL SURFACE EXPRESSION/LUCIFERASE ACTIVITY
For h-CLAT and USENS
- Flow cytometry used: Name: Beckman Coulter Flow Cytometer, Type: CytoFLEX System B4-R0-V0, Serial number: BC46360
- Plate used: 24 well flat-bottom plate
- Propidium iodide staining/cytotoxicity measurements: After 24 ± 0.5 hours of exposure, cells were transferred into sample tubes and 600 μL of FACS buffer was added to each sample. Cells were then collected by centrifugation (300 g,
5 min, 4 ºC). The supernatants were discarded and the remaining cells were washed again with 600 μL of FACS buffer. Finally, cells were resuspended in 400 μL of FACS buffer and 20 μL of 1 × PI solution was added for each sample. The PI uptake was analysed using flow cytometry with the acquisition channel FL-3. A total of minimum 10,000 living cells (PI negative) were acquired. Cell viability was analyzed by the CytExpert Software by gating out PI positive cells, and the calculated percentage of PI negative cells was displayed on the software.
- Preparation for CD54 and/or CD86 expression measurements/cell staining: After 24 ± 0.5 hours of exposure, cells were transferred from the 24-well plate into sample tubes, then 1 mL of FACS buffer was added to each sample and cells were collected by centrifugation (300 g, 5 min, 4 ºC). The washing step was repeated once more with 1 mL of FACS buffer. After washing, cells were blocked with 600 μL of 1 × blocking solution and incubated at approximately 4 °C for 15 min. After blocking, cells were split in three aliquots of 200 μL into sample tubes. After centrifugation (300 g, 5 min, 4 ºC), cells were stained with 50 μL of FITC-labelled anti-CD86, anti-CD54 or mouse IgG1 (isotype) antibodies and incubated at approximately 4 °C for 30 min. The antibodies described in the h-CLAT DB-ALM protocol 158° were used. After washing twice with 150 μL of FACS buffer, cells were resuspended in 400 μL of FACS buffer and 20 μL of 1 × PI solution was added to each sample. The expression levels of CD86 and CD54, and cell viability were analysed using flow cytometry.
DATA EVALUATION
- Cytotoxicity assessment: Two independent runs for the dose finding assay were performed to determine the test item concentration that results in 75 % cell viability (CV75) compared to the solvent/vehicle control.
- Prediction model used: If the RFI of CD86 is equal to or greater than 150 % at any tested dose (>50 % of cell viability) in at least 2 independent runs, AND/OR if the RFI of CD54 is equal to or greater than 200 % at any tested dose (>50 % of cell viability) in at least 2 independent runs, the test item prediction is considered as positive. Otherwise, it is considered as a negative.
In case the first two independent runs are not concordant a third run needs to be performed and the final prediction will be based on the mode of conclusions from the three individual runs.
When the item is tested at 5000 µg/mL in saline, 1000 µg/ml in DMSO, or highest soluble dose as the maximal test concentration instead of CV75-based dose and does not meet the positive criteria above without affecting cytotoxicity at all tested doses, the test item prediction should be considered as negative.
Since EC150 and EC200 values are just optional for test items that are found to be sensitisers, the values are calculated only in cases where a firm dose response curve can be constructed.
Up to six runs, meeting requirements for qualified testing, are permitted to reach a conclusion for each test item. The six runs may include runs for which the data adoption criteria are not met for this test item. If no prediction can be made after the sixth run, the result is inconclusive. - Vehicle / solvent control:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: negative/non-sensitiser, i.e. no indication of skin sensitization potential (to be used in Defined Approach acc. to OECD GL 497)
- Conclusions:
- In a GLP-compliant study according to OECD TG 442E with the h-CLAT, cellobiose did not show any skin sensitization potential.
- Executive summary:
The potential of cellobiose to induce skin sensitisation was investigated in a GLP-compliant study according to OECD TG 442E with the h-CLAT.
The extent of cytotoxicity induced on THP-1 cells by the test item was studied in two dose finding tests. The maximal final test item concentration dissolved in saline was 500.0 μg/mL in both runs. Since no cytotoxicity was observed in any of the runs, no CV75 value was calculated. Based on the results of the two dose finding tests, eight doses between 500.0 μg/mL – 139.5 μg/mL (nominal concentrations) were used for the main test in two independent runs and both runs were concluded as valid.
The increase in CD86 marker expression (RFI) was below 150 % at all tested doses compared to the respective negative controls in both independent runs. Also, no cytotoxicity was observed. Based on the two valid concordant negative results for CD86 marker expression, the main test was concluded to be negative.
The increase in CD54 marker expression (RFI) was below 200 % at all tested doses compared to the respective negative controls in both independent runs. Also, no cytotoxicity was observed. Based on the two valid concordant negative results for CD54 marker expression, the main test was concluded to be negative.
Since both CD86 and CD54 marker expressions showed negative results, the overall h-CLAT prediction is concluded to be negative.
To derive a final conclusion on the skin sensitisation potential in terms of GHS classification, the results of this study will be combined with other information in a defined appraoch according to OECD GL 497.
