Additional information

Skin irritation:

In different studies, Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo) benzene sulphonate has been investigated for potential for dermal irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits along with human data for target chemical Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate and its structurally similar read across substances Disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate[CAS: 3567-66-6] and Disodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulphonatonaphthyl)azo]naphthalene sulphonate; disodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulfonato-1-naphthyl) diazenyl]naphthalene-1-sulfonate(3567-69-9). The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data.

The skin irritation potential of Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox v 3.4 with logPow as the primary descriptor. Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate was estimated to be not irritating to the skin of  rabbit. Based on the estimated results, Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate can be considered to be not irritating to skin and can be classified under the category “ Not Classified ” as per CLP regulation.

The above predicted data was supported by experimental study conducted by conducted(Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB, 2016) ( Report no. SPL/122/023) to determine dermal irritation potential of structurally similar read across substanceDisodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate[CAS: 3567-66-6]

A study was designed and conducted to determine the dermal reaction profile of Disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate (CAS: 3567-66-6) in Sprague Dawley rats. The study was performed as per OECD Guidelines 402 and complying to the GLP procedures. Ten rats (5 male and 5 female) were used for conducting dermal irritation /corrosion study.

 

The animals were kept in their cages for at least 5 days prior to administration for acclimatization to the laboratory condition and after acclimatization period, animals were randomly selected. Approximately 24 hours before application, the hair of each rat was closely clipped from the trunk (dorsal surface and sides from scapular to pelvic area) with an electric clipper, so as to expose at least 10% of the body surface area. The test item was moistened with distilled water. The test item was applied onto the exposed skin of the animal, taking care to spread the test item evenly over the entire area of approximately 10% of the total body surface area or as much of the area as can reasonably be covered. The test item was held in contact with the skin using a porous gauze dressing and non irritating tape around the animal to cover the exposure site for first 24 hours exposure period. Elizabethan collar was placed on each animal for first 24 hours after application of the test item. These collars prevent ingestion of test item. Following 24 hours of exposure, the wrapping was removed and the test site wiped free of excess test item. Distilled water was used to remove residual test item. 

 

The test item Disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2, 7-disulphonate was applied to shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any skin reaction at the site of application during the study period of 14 days.

 

The overall irritation score of the substance was determined to be 0 and no erythema and edema (skin irritation) were observed at the end of 14 days observation period after patch removal.

Hence, it was concluded that Disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate (CAS: 3567-66-6) was Non-Irritating to the skin of Sprague Dawley rats under the experimental conditions tested and classified as “Category-Not Classified” as per CLP Classification.

The above experimental study was further supported by experimental study conducted by Sustainability Support Services (Europe) AB, Sweden (2016) (Report no. SPL/122/027) for structurally similar read across substanceDisodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulphonatonaphthyl)azo]naphthalene sulphonate; disodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulfonato-1-naphthyl) diazenyl]naphthalene-1-sulfonate(3567-69-9).

The study now reported was designed and conducted to determine the dermal reaction profile of Disodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulphonatonaphthyl)azo] naphthalenesulphonate in Sprague Dawley rats.

The test item was applied to shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at 2000 mg/kg body weight. Administration of the test item at 2000 mg/kg did not result in any skin reaction at the site of application during the study period of 14 days. Administration of the test item did not result in any signs of toxicity and mortality during the study period of 14 days.   

Animals exhibited normal body weight gain through the study period of 14 days.

Gross pathological examination did not reveal any abnormalities attributable to the treatment.

From the study, it can be concluded that the test substance ‘Disodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulphona tonaphthyl)azo] naphthalenesulphonate’ is nonirritant to the skin of Sprague Dawley rats when applied to the shorn skin of 5 male and 5 female animals at the tested dose level of 2000 mg/kg body weight.

Also the erythema and edema score of rats was calculated as 0. Thus it can be concluded that the substanceDisodium 4-hydroxy-3-[(4-sulphonatonaphthyl)azo] naphthalenesulphonate can be classified under non irritant category.

Based on the available data for the target as well as it read across substances;and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo) benzene sulphonate was not irritating to skin. Itcan be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation

Eye irritation:

In different studies, Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo) benzene sulphonate has been investigated for potential for ocular irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits along with human data for target chemical Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate and its structurally similar read across substances ,Sodium 4-[(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)azo]benzenesulphonate (633-96-5) and Disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate[CAS: 3567-66-6] The predicted data using the OECD QSAR toolbox has also been compared with the experimental data.

The eye irritation potential of Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate was estimated using OECD QSAR toolbox v 3.4 with logPow as the primary descriptor. Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate was estimated to be not irritating to the eye of  rabbit. Based on the estimated results, Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo)benzenesulphonate can be considered to be not irritating to eye and can be classified under the category “ Not Classified ” as per CLP regulation.

The above predicted data was supported by experimental study summarized in Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety SCCS OPINION ON Acid Orange 7 COLIPA n° C15;22 March 2011 for the structurally similar read across substances ,Sodium 4-[(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)azo]benzenesulphonate (633-96-5).

Sodium 4-[(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)azo]benzene sulphonate was used as a teat material to evaluate eye irritation potential .

The test material was administrated on the eye of 3 male rabbits in the concentration 100 mg . No sign of irritation was observed during experiment thus it is concluded that sodium 4-[(2-hydroxy-1-naphthyl)azo]benzenesulphonate dose not classify as eye irritant.

The above experimental data was further supported by experimental study summarized in Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS)-SCCP/1102/07 for the structurally similar read across substance Disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo) naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate[CAS: 3567-66-6]

A study was conducted to determine the irritation potential of Acid Red 33 on rabbit eyes.

0.2 ml of a 10% aqueous solution (20 mg) or suspension of the test material was applied twice daily, five times weekly, for four weeks to the conjunctival sac of one eye of each of a group of six or more albino rabbits (40 applications). One hour after each application, the eyes were examined for evidence of staining and the irritation was scored according to Draize.

The overall irritation score after 20 days of observation was 0.0. Hence, disodium 5-amino-4-hydroxy-3-(phenylazo)naphthalene-2,7-disulphonate was considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.

 

Based on the available data for the target as well as it read across substances;and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that Sodium 4-(4-(2-hydroxynaphthalenylazo)phenylazo) benzene sulphonate was not irritating to eye. Itcan be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation
