Principles of method if other than guideline:
Deviations from the Guideline
- No historical data were available for the positive control 2,3-butanedione during the experimental phase of the study. This was considered uncritical because 2,3-butanedione is one of the proficiency chemicals and was shown to be suitable during in-house proficiency testing.
- The planned buffer concentrations for dissolution of the Cys-peptide and Lys-peptide were 25 mM instead of 100 mM. This was considered uncritical, because the buffer strength was sufficient, confirmed by the positive controls.
- The phosphate buffer used for dissolution of the Cys-peptide was prepared by dis-solving disodium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate and adjusting the pH by using NaOH instead of using sodium dihydrogen phosphate monohydrate and disodium hydrogen phosphate heptahydrate in combination. This was considered uncritical because the same ions are formed irrespective of the used phosphate salt, and the pH was adjusted to the correct value.
- Due to an error on the protocol for the co-elution controls of the Lys-peptide, there was 200 μL acetonitrile and 50 μL test item stock solution in the samples instead of only 250 μL test item stock solution. This was considered uncritical, co-elution with the test item could be excluded also with the lower amount of test item.
The deviations were assessed and signed by the study director on 03. Jun. 2019.

In chemico test system

Details on the study design:
The direct peptide reactivity assay (DPRA) is an in chemico assay to quantify the reactivity of the test item towards cysteine and lysine containing peptides. This reactivity is related to the skin sensitisation potential.
To quantify the sensitisation potential, the depletion of the cysteine and lysine containing peptides caused by known amounts of the test item is measured using HPLC.
The assay is used for supporting the discrimination between skin sensitizers (i.e. UN GHS Category 1) and non-sensitizers in accordance with the UN GHS. A categorization in the sub-categories 1 A and 1 Bis not possible.

Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The mean peptide depletion and standard deviation of the three replicates of the positive control cinnamaldehyde were in the acceptable range of 60.8 – 100.0 %
and ≤ 14.9 %, respectively, for the Cys-peptide.
The mean peptide depletion and standard deviation of the three replicates of the positive control 2,3-Butanedione were in the acceptable range of 10.0 – 45.0 % and ≤ 11.6 %, respectively, for the Lys-peptide.
