Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

Based on read across from a structurally related compound, GDMA is considered to be a strong sensitizer (Skin Sens 1A)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Skin sensitisation

Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
skin sensitisation: in vivo (LLNA)
Type of information:
read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Justification for type of information:
This scenario covers the analogue approach for which the read-across hypothesis is based on (bio) transformation to common compound(s). For the REACH information requirement under consideration, the effects obtained in a study conducted with one source substance are used to predict the effects that would be observed in a study with the target substance if it were to be conducted. The same type of effect(s) or absence of effect is predicted. The predicted strength of the effects may be similar or based on a worst-case approach
The hypothesis corresponds to Scenario 1 of the RAAF. The source substance NaTG will be used to read-across two endpoints, e.g. repeated dose toxicity and toxicity to reproduction, of the target substance GDMA. Source and target substance are expected to share common metabolites. GDMA is rapidly hydrolysed after absorption into TGA and ethylene glycol, while NaTG will dissociate into TGA and sodium ion. By now, no experimental toxicokinetic data is available for GDMA. Therefore, simulated gastric acid hydrolysis as well as in vitro metabolic studies are planned to strengthen the hypothesis.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across source
Key result
Parameter:
EC3
Value:
<= 2
Test group / Remarks:
read across
Remarks on result:
positive indication of skin sensitisation based on QSAR/QSPR prediction
Parameter:
SI
Value:
6.7
Test group / Remarks:
10% NaTG
Interpretation of results:
Category 1A (indication of significant skin sensitising potential) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Based on the read-across hypothesis and the presence of two thiol groups, GDMA should be classified as Skin Sens 1A.
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (sensitising)

Respiratory sensitisation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the read-across hypothesis and the presence of two thiol groups, GDMA should be classified as Skin Sens 1A.
