Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Testing was performed via a GLP OECD 439 guideline study on the registered substance itself. The present in vitro method is recommended in a bottom up testing approach. The validity criteria are met, making the results sufficiently reliable to assess the irritating potential of the test item to the skin. The present in vitro method allows the identification of irritating chemical substances and mixtures. Compared to the relative absorbance value of the negative control the mean relative absorbance value was not reduced (104.1%; threshold for irritancy: ≤ 50%) after exposure of the skin tissues to the test item. Therefore, the test item is not considered to possess an irritant potential. Hence, the present result is sufficient to conclude that Isobutyl 4-chloro-3,5-diaminobenzoate does not need to be classified as skin irritant, and no further testing is required.
- Executive summary:
This in vitro GLP OECD 439 study was performed to assess the irritation potential of Isobutyl 4-chloro-3,5-diaminobenzoate by means of the Human Skin Model Test.
The test item was not soluble in water and did not dye water when mixed with it (pre-test for colour interference), and it did not reduce MTT (pre-test for direct MTT reduction). Therefore, additional tests with viable (without MTT addition) or freeze-killed tissues were not necessary for determination of correction factors for calculating the true viability in the main experiment.
Each three tissues of the human skin model EpiDerm™ were treated with the test item, the negative control (DPBS) or the positive control (5% SLS) for 60 minutes.
After treatment with the negative control the absorbance values were well within the required range of the acceptability criterion of mean OD³0.8 and ≤ 2.8 for the 60 minutes treatment interval, thus assuring the quality of the tissues.
Treatment with the positive control induced a sufficient decrease in the relative absorbance as compared to the negative control for the 60 minutes treatment interval, and thus assuring the validity of the test system.
After treatment with the test item Isobutyl 4-chloro-3,5-diaminobenzoate the mean relative absorbance value did not decrease (104.1%) compared to the relative absorbance value of the negative control. The threshold for irritancy of ≤ 50% was not affected. Therefore, the test item is not considered to possess an irritant potential.
In conclusion, it can be stated that in this study and under the experimental conditions reported, Isobutyl 4-chloro-3,5-diaminobenzoate is not irritant to skin.
