Executive summary:

The dermal sensitization potential of the test chemical is being estimated based on the experimental data for the various test chemicals.  

Skin sensitization effects were estimated by four different models i.e, Battery, Leadscope, SciQSAR and CASE Ultra used within Danish QSAR database for the test chemical. Based on estimation, no skin sensitization reactions were observed in guinea pigs and humans. Therefore, the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing.

This estimated result is supported by a human maximization assay performed to determine the degree of dermal sensitivity caused by the test chemical. 12% of the test chemical was applied for 5 alternate-day 48-hour periods on the volar side of the arm of 25 participants after pretreatment for 24 hours with 2.5% aqueous sodium lauryl sulfate under occlusion. Sodium lauryl sulfate (5%-15%) was applied to the test site for 1 hour before the application of the challenge. There were no signs of sensitization for either the 48- or 72-hour challenge. Hence, the test chemical was considered to be not sensitizing to the skin of humans.

The above results are supported by the study conducted on 2 male white guinea pigs to determine the degree of dermal sensitivity caused by the test chemical. 0.1% Test material was dissolved in physiological saline. The test material was injected “intracutaneously” every other day or 3 times weekly until a total of 10 injections had been made. The first injection consisted of 0.05 ml of the test material, whereas the subsequent 9 injections consisted of 0.1 ml each. Two weeks following the tenth injection, a challenge injection was made using 0.05 ml of a freshly prepared 0.1% test chemical in physiological saline. Twenty-four hours after each injection, evaluations were made of the diameter, height, and color of skin reactions. No skin reactions were observed. Therefore, the test chemical was considered to be non-sensitizing to skin of guinea pigs.

The results from these studies lead to a possibility of the test chemical being not sensitizing to skin. By applying the weight of evidence approach, the test chemical can be considered to be not sensitizing to skin. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, the test chemical can be classified under the category “Not Classified”.

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

The results of the experimental studies indicate a possibility that the test chemical can be not sensitizing to skin.

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