Samenvatting:
The in chemico direct peptide reactivity assay (DPRA) is validated to assess protein reactivity of chemical compounds, relating to the molecular initiating event of skin sensitization induction. According to OECD TG 442C, the DPRA is technically applicable to test multi-constituent substances and mixtures of known composition, even though limited experimental data are publicly available. First, we assessed the DPRA’s predictive capability for individual substances, but at concentrations other than the recommended 100 mM, i.e., based on the LLNA EC3 concentration (Experiment A). Next, t…
