Additional information

Skin irritation:

Various studieshas been investigated for the test chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)to observe the potential for dermal irritation to a greater or lesser extent. The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits for target chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)and its structurally similar read across substancesdisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9)and C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7).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 chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6).The chemical Dipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)is estimated to be not irritating to skin of New Zealand White rabbits.

 

 

SIDS INITIAL ASSESSMENT PROFILE (2010) performed a dermal irritation study to assess the irritation potential ofstructurally similar read across substancedisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9) in rabbits which supports the above result. In this study, two New Zealand White rabbits were exposed to 500 mg of Disodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate, free acid as a dry powder applied to the inner surface the ears and covered with adhesive bandages for 24 hours. The ears were rinsed following exposure and the rabbits were observed for 7 days. No signs of skin irritation were observed. Hence, disodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (CAS No: 4193-55-9)can be considered not irritating to rabbit skin.

 

 

Above results were further supported by experimental study conducted by OECD SIDS (2005) forstructurally similar read across substanceC.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7) in rabbits. C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 was applied as dry powder at the inner surface of 2 New Zealand White rabbit ears under semi-occlusive conditions for 24 hours. The ears were rinsed after the exposure and rabbits were observed for a period of 7 days. The treated skin areas were inspected for lesions after 24 h, day 2, 3, 6 and 7. The treated sites showed no signs of irritation. Hence, C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7) can be considered not irritating to rabbit skin.

 

 

 

Thus on the basis of available data for thetarget chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)and its structurally similar read across substancesdisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9)and C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7) ,it can be concluded thatchemical Dipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)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”.

The studies are based on in vivo experiments in rabbits for target chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)and its structurally similar read across substancesdisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9)and C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7).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 ocular irritation potential was estimated for test chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6).The chemical Dipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)is estimated to be not irritating to eye of New Zealand White rabbits.

 

 

 

The OECD SIDS (2005)and Bayer AG (1979) performed a ocular irritation study to assess the irritation potential ofstructurally similar read across substancedisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9) rabbits which supports the above result. In this study, New Zealand White rabbits (3/sex) were administered C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28, disodium salt by the instillation of 100 mg into one eye. The eyelids were held closed for 1 second. The eyes were examined 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 days following application. Examination at 24 hours was aided with fluorescein dye. No eye reactions as well no clinical signs were observed throughout the study. The Irritation Score was 0. Based on the scores and observations, disodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (CAS No: 4193-55-9) can be considered not irritating to eyes.

 

 

 

Above results were further supported by experimental study conducted by OECD SIDS (2005) forstructurally similar read across substanceC.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7) in rabbits. About 50 mg C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 was instilled into the conjunctival sac of 2 New Zealand White rabbits. The rabbits were observed for a period of 7 days. The treated eyes were inspected for lesions after 24 h, day 2, 3, 6 and 7. The treated eyes showed no signs of irritation. Hence, C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7) can be considered not irritating to New Zealand White rabbit eyes.

 

 

Thus on the basis of available data for thetarget chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)and its structurally similar read across substancesdisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9)and C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7) ,it can be concluded thatchemical Dipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)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 chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)and its structurally similar read across substancesdisodium 4,4'-bis[6-anilino-[4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2'-disulphonate (Blankophor BA) (CAS No: 4193-55-9)and C.I. Fluorescent Brightener 28/113 (CAS No: 70942-01-7)were observed in various studies. The results obtained from these studies indicates that the chemicalDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonateis unlikely to cause skin and eye irritation. HenceDipotassium 4,4’-bis[6-anilino-4-[bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amino-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl]amino]stilbene-2,2’-disulphonate (CAS No: 71230-67-6)can be classified under the category “Not Classified” for skin and eye as per CLP.
