Details on the study design:
In the present study Ethyl Vanillin Glucoside was dissolved in dist. water : acetonitrile 1:1 (v/v), based on the results of the pre-experiments.

Based on a molecular weight of 328 g/mol a 100 mM stock solution was prepared. The test item solutions were tested by incubating the samples with the peptides containing either cysteine or lysine for 24 ± 2 h at 25 ± 2.5 °C. Subsequently samples were analysed by HPLC.

For the 100 mM stock solution of the test item no turbidity or precipitation was observed when diluted with the cysteine peptide solution. After the 24 h ± 2 h incubation period but prior to the HPLC analysis samples were inspected for precipitation, turbidity or phase separation. Slight precipitation was observed for all the samples of the test item and for the samples of the positive control excluding the (co-elution control). Samples were not centrifuged prior to the HPLC analysis. The slight precipitation noted for the test item samples was also observed for reference controls, positive controls and standard solutions. It can be considered that it is related to the peptide and that it is not a precipitation of the test substance. Additionally, the precipitation did not change during the HPLC analysis period. As the stability of the cysteine peptide in the used acetonitrile batch was demonstrated successfully, the reactivity of the positive control towards the cysteine peptide and peptide depletion were identified correctly and the validity of the cysteine run was acceptable the precipitation was considered as not relevant.

For the 100 mM stock solution of the test item no turbidity or precipitation was observed when diluted with the lysine peptide solution. After the 24 h ± 2 h incubation period but prior to the HPLC analysis samples were inspected for precipitation, turbidity or phase separation. Phase separation was observed for all the samples of the positive control including the co-elution control. No precipitation, turbidity or phase separation was observed for the samples of the test item. Samples were not centrifuged prior to the HPLC analysis. Since the acceptance criteria for the depletion range of the positive control were fulfilled, the observed phase separation was regarded as not relevant.
No co-elution of test item with the peptide peaks was observed. Sensitising potential of the test item was predicted from the mean peptide depletion of both analysed peptides (cysteine and lysine) by comparing the peptide concentration of the test item treated samples to the corresponding reference control.

Details on the study design:
In the present study Ethyl Vanillin Glucoside was dissolved in DMSO. For the dose finding assay stock solutions with concentrations ranging from 500 mg/mL to 3.91 mg/mL were prepared by a serial dilution of 1:2. Cells were incubated with the test item for 24 h at 37°C. After exposure cells were stained with propidium iodide and cell viability was measured by FACS analysis.

Due to a lack of cytotoxicity, no CV75 could be derived. Therefore, the main experiment was performed covering the following concentration steps:
1000, 833.33, 694.44, 578.70, 482.25, 401.88, 334.90, 279.08 µg/mL

In all experiments no precipitation or turbidity of the test item was observed for all concentration steps when mixing the test item stock solutions with cell culture medium.

Cells were incubated with the test item for 24 h at 37°C. After exposure cells were stained and cell surface markers CD54 and CD86 were measured by FACS analysis. Cell viability was assessed in parallel using propidium iodide staining.

Details on the study design:
In the present study Ethyl Vanillin Glucoside was dissolved in DMSO. Based on a molecular weight of 328.32 g/mol a stock solution of 200 mM was prepared.
Based on the stock solution a set of twelve master solutions in 100% solvent was prepared by serial dilution using a constant dilution factor of 1:2. These master solutions were diluted 1:100 in cell culture medium. The following concentration range was tested in the assay:
2000, 1000, 500, 250, 125, 62.5, 31.25, 15.63, 7.81, 3.91, 1.95, 0.98 µM
Cells were incubated with the test item for 48 h at 37°C. After exposure cells were lysed and luciferase activity was assessed by luminescence measurement.

Other effects / acceptance of results:
In the first experiment, a max luciferase activity (Imax) induction of 1.60 was determined at a test item concentration of 2000 µM. The corresponding cell viability was 84.0%. No further induction of luciferase activity was found in the tested concentration range. The calculated EC1.5 was >1000 µM (1624 µM).

In the second experiment, no significant luciferase induction > 1.5 was found in the tested concentration range. Therefore, no EC1.5 value could be calculated.

No dose response for luciferase activity induction was observed for each individual run as well as for an overall luciferase activity induction.
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In this study under the given conditions the test item did not induce the luciferase activity in the transgenic KeratinoSens™ cell line in at least two independent experiment runs. Therefore, the test item can be considered as non-sensitiser.
Executive summary:

In this study under the given conditions the test item did not induce the luciferase activity in the transgenic KeratinoSens™ cell line in at least two independent experiment runs. Therefore, the test item can be considered as non-sensitiser.
