Any other information on results incl. tables
"The patch test results show that all 6 patients with positive reactions to N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-diaminopropane and 1,2-diaminopropane cross-reacted with ethylenediamine but manifested no reaction to salicylaldehyde. 4 patients (nos. 1–4) were also tested with N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-ethylenediamine, to which they were positive. 1 of these patients (no. 4) manifested a weak reaction to N,N-disalicylidene-1,3-diaminopropane.
The results demonstrate reaction to an imine to be accompanied by reaction to its corresponding amine. We also found that all patients reacting to ethylenediamine also reacted to both N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-diaminopropane and 1,2-diaminopropane. Finally, no patient in this study manifested reaction to salicylaldehyde."
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Bergendorff and Hansson (2000) published a human patch test, which investigated the reaction of six patients to the reactive, lipophilic imine N,N-disalicylidene-1,2 -diaminopropane. Further, the authors tested cross-reactivity with the corresponding amine 1,2 -diaminopropane and other structural analogues. Patch tests with N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-diaminopropane, 1% 1,2 -diaminopropane or structural analogues in petrolatum were applied to the skin of four (out of six) patients using Finn Chambers mounted on Scanpor. The patches were removed after 2 days and read after 3 and 7 days. Gradings were made according to the International Contact Dermatitis Group scale. All tested patients showed a positive result for N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-diaminopropane and cross-reacted with 1,2-diaminopropane and ethylenediamine but not with salicylaldehyde or 1,3-diaminopropane. However, all six patients were acutely suffering from hand eczema, dermatitis after the use of an adhesive plaster, or facial dermatitis. No information regarding clinical history, onset and progress of the disease, exposure history or aggravating factors was provided. Thus, the immune system of the patients were in a hypersensitive state and it is not clear which allergen induced the immunological memory. Hence, the study was not considered for assessment and reliability was set at 3.
- Executive summary:
The skin sensitising potential of N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-diaminopropane and its hydrolysis product 1,2 -diaminopropane was investigated in a human patch test with six patients. Patch tests with 1% of 1,2 -diaminopropane in petrolatum were applied to the skin of four (out of six) patients using Finn Chambers mounted on Scanpor. All patients were suffering from hand eczema, dermatitis after the use of an adhesive plaster, or facial dermatitis. The patches were removed after 2 days and read after 3 and 7 days. Gradings were made according to the International Contact Dermatitis Group scale.
All patients showed a positive result for N,N-disalicylidene-1,2-diaminopropane and cross-reacted with 1,2-diaminopropane and ethylenediamine but not with salicylaldehyde or 1,3-diaminopropane.
