The h-CLAT addresses the third key event of the skin sensitisation adverse outcome pathway (AOP) that was defined by the OECD in 2012 and is a part of the AOP-based “two out of three” skin sensitisation integrated testing strategy for hazard identification (Bauch et al., 2012). The sensitising potential of the test item was assessed by quantifying changes in the expression level of the two cell surface markers CD86 and CD54, which are associated with the process of activation of monocytes and dendritic cells, after incubation with the test item. The measured expression levels were used to distinguish potential skin sensitizers from non-sensitizers.
In both valid experiments (II and III) the RFI of CD54 was > 200 % at four non-cytotoxic test item concentrations (578.7 µg/ mL, 694.4 µg/ mL, 833.3 µg/ mL, 1000.0 µg/ mL).
Experiment II: The RFI of CD86 was > 150 % at one non-cytotoxic test item concentration (334.9 µg/mL).
Experiment III: The RFI of CD86 was not ≥ 150 % in any test item concentration.
In conclusion, it can be stated that under the experimental conditions of this study, the test item, Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate, was positive in the h-CLAT and is therefore considered to have the potential to activate dendritic cells and is a potential skin sensitizer. Nevertheless it is not considered necessary to classify it in a two out of three approach, as outlined in the defined approach section of this data set. - Executive summary:
The determination of the sensitising potential of Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate was done with the “In Vitro Skin Sensitisation: human Cell Line Activation Test (h-CLAT)” following OECD 442E under GLP.
This in vitro study was performed to assess the sensitising potential of the test item Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate by quantifying changes in the expression level of the two cell surface markers CD86 and CD54, which are associated with the process of activation of monocytes and dendritic cells.
In total one pre-test and three experiments (experiment I - III) with a treatment period of 24 hours were performed whereby experiment I was invalid and had to be repeated. Therefore, in total two valid experiments (experiment II and III) were performed.
For the experiments, the highest nominal applied concentration (1000 µg/mL) was chosen based on the results obtained in the pre-test. A geometric series (factor 1.2) of 7 dilutions thereof was prepared.
As solvent control for the test item, DMSO was used in a final concentration of 0.2 % in culture medium.
As positive control, 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB, CAS n. 97-00-7, ≥ 99% purity) was used.
In both valid experiments (II and III) the RFI of CD54 was > 200 % at four non-cytotoxic test item concentrations.
Experiment II: The RFI of CD86 was > 150 % at one non-cytotoxic test item concentration.
Experiment III: The RFI of CD86 was not ≥ 150 % in any test item concentration.
Since the majority result of the two individual runs is positive, the test item is considered as “positive”.
Conclusion: Under the experimental conditions of this study, the test item, Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate, was positive in the h-CLAT and is therefore considered to have the potential to activate dendritic cells and therefore to be a potential skin sensitizer.

DC ITS SkinSens Integrated testing strategy and prediction of potency for skin sensitization
- Model(s) used: ChemAxon calculator, Douglas Connect Protein binding model, JSME Editor
- Model description: The Bayesian Network ITS/DS for hazard and potency identification of skin sensitisers (BN DIP) estimates skin sensitisation potency in the LLNA, TG 429, expressed as probability distribution of LLNA pEC3, among 4 potency classes: nonsensitisers (NS), weak (W), moderate (M), and combined strong and extreme (S) sensitisers. In addition, it guides testing strategy by value of information. Please refer also to 'Attached justification'
- Justification of QSAR prediction: The BN DIP purpose is to provide skin sensitisation hazard and potency information for chemicals considering their mode of action. The information can be used in quantitative risk assessment (as 4 potency categories can be provided) - Type of study:
- other: A defined approach consists of a fixed data interpretation procedure (DIP) (e.g. statistical models) applied to data (e.g in silico predictions, in chemico, in vitro data) generated with a defined set of information sources to derive a prediction.
- Justification for non-LLNA method:
- data from in silico models and the h-CLAT test were integrated in a defined approach

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Combining the EC200 value of 299700 μM derived in the h-CLAT assay with calculated values indicating bioavailability and protein-binding in this defined approach, the substance is predicted to be 'not a sensitiser'. The reliability of the result is substantial (Bayes Factor 4.6313).
- Executive summary:
Data indicating bioavailability from in silico models and the EC200 from the CLAT test were integrated in a defined approach ( The Bayesian Network ITS/DS for hazard and potency identification of skin sensitisers (BN DIP)). This DIP (BN ITS-3) is based on Bayesian Network methodology. Combining the EC200 value of 299700 μM derived in the h-CLAT assay with calculated values indicating bioavailability and protein-binding in this defined approach, the substance is predicted to be 'not a sensitiser'. The reliability of the result is substantial (Bayes Factor 4.6313).
