Executive summary:

Based on the available studies for the structurally similar read across substances, the weight of evidence approach was applied to determine the extent of dermal sensitization potential of Sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate.

A delayed contact hypersensitivity test was conducted on Guinea pigs to evaluate the skin sensitization potential of test chemical under occlusive condition.

Ten animals were used in the treatment group and 10 in the control group. During induction, the test site on the flank was clipped and shaved and 500mg (0.5 g) of 30% (w/w) test chemical diluted in petroleum jelly was applied for 6 h under a closed patch, once a week, for 3 weeks. A control site received only the petroleum jelly. Two weeks after the last application, 0.1 g each of 30%, 10%, 3%, or the petroleum jelly were applied to the shaved skin and left for 24 h under a closed patch. Skin reactions were scored on a −, ±, +, ++, +++ scale at 24 and 48 h.

None of the treated animal showed delayed contact hypersensitivity within 48 hours. Thus, the chemical was considered to be not sensitizing in Guinea pigs.

 

This is supported by the results of a Buehler test conducted according to OECD Guideline 406 to assess the dermal sensitization potential of the structurally similar chemical in Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs. During the test, 20 guinea pigs were used. In induction, the animals were induced dermally at concentration of 42.8 %. After induction animals were challenged dermally with the same concentration under occlusive condition. No known skin reactions were observed at induction as well as at challenge exposure. Thus the chemical was considered to be not sensitizing in Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs.

Based on the available data for the structurally similar read across chemicals and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded thatSodium naphthalene-1-sulfonatewill also behave in similar manner that of the read across chemicals.Sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonatewas estimated to be not sensitizing to skin.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The results of the experimental studies from the structurally similar read across substances indicate a possibility that Sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate can be not sensitizing to skin.

Hence, by applying the weight of evidence approach, Sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate can be considered to be not sensitizing to skin. It can be classified under the category “Not Classified” as per CLP regulation.
