Chronic Dosed-Feed Toxicity/Carcinogenicity Study of 2-Hydroxy-4-Methoxybenzophenone (HMB, C10260; CAS No. 131-57-7) in Sprague-Dawley rats (G822872B)

ABSTRACT: 2-Hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (HMB) is an approved Food and Drug Administration (FDA) over-the-counter Category I product considered to be a deterrent to ultraviolet (UV) radiation-induced skin cancer. HMB is used in pharmaceuticals, plastic products, fabric coatings, finishes, and cosmetics. Exposure to HMB occurs through both occupational and consumer routes. HMB is used in skin moisturizing products and sunscreen lotions. In plastics manufacturing, HMB is used in surface coatings and polymers including ABS resins, cellulosic esters, polyesters, polystyrenes, rubber, flexible and rigid vinyl, and vinylidene chloride. HMB readily penetrates the skin and bioaccumulates in lipid-rich tissues. Uptake from the gastrointestinal tract is rapid. This study will characterize the toxicologic and carcinogenic potential of HMB administered in dosed feed to Sprague-Dawley rats given its potential for widespread human exposure as a broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Project description:Nanowires (NWs), high-aspect-ratio nanomaterials, are increasingly used in technological materials and consumer products and may have toxicological characteristics distinct from nanoparticles. We carried out a comprehensive evaluation of the physicochemical stability of four silver nanowires (AgNWs) of two sizes and coatings and their toxicity to Daphnia magna. Inorganic aluminum-doped silica coatings were less effective than organic poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) coatings at preventing silver oxidation or Ag+ release and underwent a significant morphological transformation within 1 h following addition to low ionic strength Daphnia growth media. All AgNWs were highly toxic to D. magna but less toxic than ionic silver. Toxicity varied as a function of AgNW dimension, coating, and solution chemistry. Ag+ release in the media could not account for observed AgNW toxicity. Single-particle inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry distinguished and quantified dissolved and nanoparticulate silver in microliter-scale volumes of Daphnia magna hemolymph with a limit of detection of approximately 10 ppb. The silver levels within the hemolymph of Daphnia exposed to both Ag+ and AgNW met or exceeded the initial concentration in the growth medium, indicating effective accumulation during filter feeding. Silver-rich particles were the predominant form of silver in hemolymph following exposure to both AgNWs and Ag+. Scanning electron microscopy imaging of dried hemolymph found both AgNWs and silver precipitates that were not present in the AgNW stock or the growth medium. Both organic and inorganic coatings on the AgNW were transformed during ingestion or absorption. Pathway, gene ontology, and clustering analyses of gene expression response indicated effects of AgNWs distinct from ionic silver on Daphnia magna. Four replicates each of five toxicant exposure groups of ~20 animals and four replicates of control, unexposed animals. Each control was compared to each exposed data set for a total of 16 comparisons per chemical condition.
