Human Cell Line Activation Test of the Novel Energetics 2,6-pyrazinediamine 3,5-dinitro 1 -oxide (LLM-105) and 2,4,6-trinitro-3-bromoanisole (TNBA)
Abstract
The energetic and toxicological properties of 2,6-pyrazinediamine 3,5-dinitro-1 -oxide (LLM-105) and 2,4,6-trinitro-3-bromoanisole (TNBA) are being determined to support an evaluation of LLM-105 and TNBA as replacements for energetics in current use, such as such as hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) and trinitrotoluene (TNT). This study assessed the skin sensitization potential of LLM-105 and TNBA through the human cell line activation test (h-CLAT), an in vitro approach to assess dendritic cell activation by chemicals, a critical step in the induction of a skin allergy. Both compounds induced a positive response in the assay.
