Results and discussion

Positive control results:
The luciferase activity induction obtained with the positive control, cinnamic aldehyde, was statistically significant above the threshold of 1.5 in at least one of the tested concentrations (4 to 64 μM) in all tests.

The EC1.5 values of the positive control, cinnamic aldehyde, were 8.00 μM, 14.30 μM and 14.61 μM for test 1, 2 and 3, respectively, which lay within the historical control range for this laboratory. The average induction in the three replicates for cinnamic aldehyde at 64 µM were 4.46, 4.33 and 4.69 for test 1, 2 and 3, respectively, which met the acceptance criterion of between 2 and 8.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
It was concluded that the test item gave a negative response in the ARE-Nrf2 Luciferase Test (KeratinoSens™), supporting the prediction that the test item is not a skin sensitizer.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to support a predictive, adverse-outcome-pathway evaluation of whether the test item, Reaction mass of disodium N,N’-[(2-hydroxy-5-nonylphen-1,3-ylene)bis(methylene)]bis[N-methylaminoacetate] and sodium N-[(2-hydroxy-5-nonylphenyl)methyl]-N-methylaminoacetate, is likely to be a skin sensitizer using the ARE-Nrf2 Luciferase Test (KeratinoSens™).

The Imaxwas 1.14 in test 1 which was <1.5 fold compared to the DMSO control and therefore the EC1.5could not be calculated. The IC30value was 8.29 µg/mL and the IC50value was 18.56 µg/mL. The graph showed no overall dose-response for luciferase induction.

The Imaxwas 3.05 in test 2 which was >1.5 fold and statistically significant when compared to the DMSO control. The EC1.5was 7.48 µM. The IC30value was 10.84 µg/mL and the IC50value was 21.24 µg/mL. The graph showed an overall dose-response for luciferase induction.

The Imaxwas 3.72 in test 3 which was >1.5 fold and statistically significant when compared to the DMSO control. The EC1.5was 7.12 µM. The IC30value was 1.11 µg/mL and the IC50value was 12.49 µg/mL. The graph showed an overall dose-response for luciferase induction.

The KeratinoSens™ prediction was negative in the first test and positive in the second test. As these results were discordant a third test was conducted. In test 3 the test item gave a positive response but only at a cytotoxic concentration and therefore the prediction was negative.
