DPRA: Direct Peptide Reactivity Assay test

Regulatory reference: OECD 442C
Claim: No skin sensitizing and Hypoallergenic
Application field: Substances or mixtures without metal compounds.
Description of the test: The DPRA is proposed to address the molecular initiating event of the skin sensitisation AOP (Adverse Outcome Pathway), namely protein reactivity, by quantifying the reactivity of test chemicals towards model synthetic peptides containing either lysine or cysteine. Cysteine and Lysine percent peptide depletion values are then used to categorise a substance in one of four classes of reactivity for supporting the discrimination between skin sensitisers and non-sensitisers.
