Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

Since read-across represents a limited and ad hoc approach to grouping, it is important to provide supporting information that reinforces the case for the read-across. Thus, in addition to the endpoint being read-across, it is considered also useful to show that the analog and the target are (qualitatively or quantitatively) similar with respect to additional properties, relevant to the endpoint. A number of physicochemical properties were identified as relevant for the skin sensitization, as mentioned in G. Patlewicz et al. (G. Patlewicz et al., QSAR Comb.Sci., 27, 2008,1, 60 – 76). These properties include hydrophobicity, molecular size and polar surface area (PSA), which model partition related effects in skin sensitization, together with polarizability and molecular refractivity which may relate to the reactivity or electrophilicity of the chemicals. CAM and CDA were compared with respect to these physicochemical properties as illustrated in the table below.

Structure	MW	LogP ± error	PSA	Polariz. (10-24cm3)	Molar refractivity (cm3)
CAM	199.25	0.71 ± 0.26	80.39	20.36	51.36
CDA	200.23	1.27 ± 0.24	74.6	19.57	49.36

It can be noticed that CAM and CDA are similar with respect to the compared physicochemical properties.

It can be concluded that the two structures are similar enough with respect to the physicochemical properties relevant to skin sensitization to support the read-across.

Conclusions:

The identified analog, i.e. 1,1-cyclohexanediacetic acid monoamide (CAM), can be considered structurally sufficient similar to the target, cyclohexanediacetic acid (CDA), to apply the read-across approach. In addition, the read-across between CAM and CDA is further supported by their similarity with respect to the physicochemical properties relevant to the skin sensitization. Therefore, the experimental test result on the skin sensitization of 1,1-cyclohexanediacetic acid monoamide (CAM) (CERB study n. 20030215ST) can be read-across to CDA, concluding that CDA is not sensitizing for skin.
