Skin sensitization

Skin sensitization behaviour of test compound Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha,alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6)have been summarized below by using data from prediction model based estimation and its read across substances.

OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 estimated the skin sensitization potential of test chemical Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha, alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6) by Buehler test on Hartley guinea pigs. According to this prediction model, the test chemical failed to induce skin sensitization in guinea pigs. Thus the test compound Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha,alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6) is estimated to be non-sensitizing to skin of Hartley guinea pigs.

The skin sensitization study was conducted by JOE DINARDO, Raleigh N, C; and ZOE DIANA DRAELOS in 2007 to observe the skin effects of similar read across substanceBasic violet 3 (CAS No:548-62-9). This test was carried out in guinea pig using modified Buehler and Klecak method for open Epicutaneous testing. For the induction phase, the left flanks of 10 albino guinea pigs were shaved and the dye test material applied three times weekly (Monday, Wednesday Friday) for three consecutive weeks. Each animal received 0.1 ml of the dye test material over a 1.8-cm circular area. Following the induction period, the guinea pigs entered the challenge phase. The challenge phase began after a two-week rest period when the right flank of each guinea pig was shaved and exposed to three different dye test material concentration (100%,50%, and 25% of the induction concentration).Twenty-four hours after the last induction and challenge application, the animals were depilated to clearly observe dermal reactions. The test sites were graded for erythema and edema 24 and 48 hours post-application using a four-point ordinal scale (0 = no reaction, 1 -- slight reaction, 2 = moderate reaction, 3 = severe reaction. A positive reaction was defined as an erythema/edema value during the challenge phase of at least one skin grade higher than during the last induction phase. No erythema/edema was observed after 24 and 48 hours post-application. Hence the test substance Basic violet 3(CAS No: 548-62-9) was considered as not sensitizing to the guinea pigs skin.

Local Lymph Node Assay was conducted on CBA/J female mice (50) byOPINION OF THE SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE ON COSMETIC PRODUCTS AND NON-FOOD PRODUCTS (SCCNFP) 2004foranother similar read across substance Brilliant blue(CAS No: -3844-45-9) in accordance withOECD guideline 429to assess its sensitization potential. In this assay, on days 0, 1 and 2 the animals received 25 μl of one of the test preparations or vehicle on the dorsal surface of each ear. On day 5 all mice received intravenous injection of tritium labeled thymidine in phosphate buffered saline, and 5 hours later they were killed humanely and the draining auricular lymph nodes were removed. Single cell suspensions were prepared for each animal, appropriately treated and measured by liquid scintillation counting. The stimulation indices were less than 3 at all tested concentrations, hence an EC3 value could not be calculated. Hence the test chemical Brilliant blue(CAS No: -3844-45-9) was considered to be non-sensitizing inLocal Lymph Node Assay.

Thus the available data estimated by prediction model for target substance Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha,alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6) as well as available data for read across substancesBasic violet 3 (CAS No:548-62-9)and Brilliant blue(CAS No: -3844-45-9) and applying weight of evidence approach suggests that the test chemical substance Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha,alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6) is not likely to cause skin sensitization and thus can be classified as non-skin sensitizer.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The skin sensitization potential of test chemical substance Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha,alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6)and its read acrosssubstancesBasic violet 3 (CAS No:548-62-9)and Brilliant blue(CAS No: -3844-45-9) were observed in various studies. From the results obtained from these studies it is concluded that the chemical substance Benzenemethanol, 4-(diethylamino)-alpha, alpha-bis(4-(diethylamino)phenyl)- (CAS No: 596-49-6) was unable to cause skin sensitization and hence can be classified as non-skin sensitizing.
