Description of key information
Skin irritation:
The dermal irritation potential of Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor. Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) was estimated to be not irritating to the skin of New Zealand White rabbits. Based on the estimated result Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) can be considered to be not irritating to skin and can be classified under the category ˋ Not Classified’ as per CLP regulation.
Eye irritation:
The ocular irritation potential of Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with logPow as the primary descriptor. Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) was estimated to be not irritating into the eyes of New Zealand White rabbits. Based on the estimated result Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) can be considered to be not irritating to eye and can be classified under the category ˋ Not Classified’ as per CLP regulation.

Additional information
Skin irritation:
Various studieshas been investigated for the test chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5)to observe the potential for dermal irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits, guinea pigs and humans for target chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) and its structurally similar read across substancesNiacinamide (CAS No: -98-92-0), Nicotinic acid (CAS no: 59-67-6)and Sodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1).The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data and summarized as below;
In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the skin irritation potential was estimated for test chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) .The chemical Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) is estimated to be not irritating to skin of New Zealand White rabbits.
The Cosmetic Ingredients Review (CIR, 2005) conductedPreliminary irritation test for structurally similar read across substance Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0) in guinea pigs to determine the concentration suitable for the sensitization study [injection challenge concentration (ICC) and application challenge concentration(ACC)]. In the preliminary test, the guinea pigs were treated intradermally and dermally.8 previously untreated guinea pigs were (4/SEX) were injected intradermally in the clipped and shaved flanks with 0.1ml aliquots of a range of concentration of test substance in physiological saline. 24 hours later, the skin was examined for erythema and edema.The concentration giving slight but perceptible irritation with no oedema was selected as the injection challenge concentration (ICC). Aliquots of 0.1ml using a range of concentration of the test substance in distilled water were applied in small circular areas to the shaved flanks of 4 previously untreated guinea pigs.24 hours later, the skin was examined for erythema and the highest concentration which caused no irritation was selected as the application challenge concentration (ACC). As a result of preliminary studies, the concentration of Niacinamide at which no irritation was observed were 5% for the ICC and 20% for ACC. Since the test chemical did not induce any cutaneous effects at these concentrations, Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0) was considered to be not irritating to the skin of guinea pigs.
The above results were supported by Skin irritation study reported by European Food Safety Authority (EFSA, 2012) and OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, 2002) for same read across substance Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0) in 3 (1male and 2 female) White Russian rabbits in accordance with OECD Guide-line 404 "Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion". About 500mg of the chemical was applied to the 6.25 cm2 of clipped dorsal skin of each rabbit under occlusion. S kin observations were made at 1 h and daily thereafter for 9 days. No significant signs of irritation were observed during 9 days observation period. The overall scores for erythema and edema after 1 and 24 hours were 0.0. Based on the scores, Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0)was considered to be not-irritating to skin of White Russian rabbits.
The OECD SIDS(1993) carried out Skin irritation study in 6New Zealand White rabbitsfor anotherstructurally similar read across substanceNicotinic acid (CAS no: 59-67-6) which supports the above results.In this study, the chemicalNicotinic acidwas applied to braded and intact skin of each rabbits for the exposure period of 4 hours under occlusive condition.No known signs of irritation were observed. Hence the chemicalNicotinic acid (CAS no: 59-67-6)was considered to be not irritating to theNew Zealand Whiterabbit’s skin.
The above results were further supported by experimental study performed byOECD SIDS (2001)onstructurally similar read across substanceSodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) in rabbits. Each rabbit received about 500 mg of Sodium Benzoate topically for 24 hours and skin reactions were scored after 48 hours. No signs of irritation were observed during 48 hours observation period. Hence the chemical Sodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) was considered to be not irritating to the rabbit’s skin.
Thus on the basis of available data for thetarget chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) and its structurally similar read across substancesNiacinamide (CAS No: -98-92-0), Nicotinic acid (CAS no: 59-67-6)and Sodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1),it can be concluded thatchemical Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) is unable to cause skin irritation and considered as not irritating.Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.
Eye irritation:
In different studies,the test chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) has been investigated for potential for ocular irritationto a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits for target chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5)its structurally similar read across substances Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0)and Sodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1),The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data and summarized as below;
In a prediction done by SSS (2017) using the OECD QSAR toolbox with log kow as the primary descriptor, the eye irritation potential was estimated for test chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) .The chemical Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) is estimated to be not irritating to eye of New Zealand White rabbits.
The Cosmetic Ingredients Review (CIR, 2005) conducted Low volume eye testfor structurally similar read across substance Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0)in New Zealand White Rabbits to determine the degree of eye irritancy caused by the chemical. During the test, 16% and 25% of Niacinamide dissolved in water was placed into the eye of each rabbits. The maximum average score (MAS) observed was 0.67 and the effects observed were cleared within 10 days. Since the chemical did not produce any acute ocular hazards, the chemical Niacinamide(CAS No: -98-92-0)was considered to be non-irritatingto the eye ofNew Zealand White Rabbits.
The above results were further supported by experimental study performed byOECD SIDS (2001)onstructurally similar read across substanceSodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1) in rabbits.Each rabbit received about 500 mg ofSodium Benzoate for 24 hours and skin reactions were scored at24 h, 48 h and 72 hours and day 7.No signs of irritation were observed during 7 day postexposure period. Hence the chemicalSodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1)was considered to be not irritating to the rabbit’s eye.
Thus on the basis of available data for thetarget chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) and its structurally similar read across substancesNiacinamide (CAS No: -98-92-0)andSodium Benzoate (CAS No: 532-32-1),it can be concluded thatchemical Pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) is unable to cause eye irritation and considered as not irritating.Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The skin and eye irritation potential of test chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5) and its structurally similar read across substanceswere observed in various studies. The results obtained from these studies indicate that the chemicalPyrazine-2-carboxylic acidis unlikely to cause skin and eye irritation. HencePyrazine-2-carboxylic acid (CAS No: 98 -97 -5)can be classified under the category “Not Classified” for skin and eye as per CLP.
