Preface Pharmacokinetic and Toxicological Characterization of Repellent DEET and Sunscreen Oxybenzone By Daryl James Fediuk A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Faculty of Pharmacy University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Manitoba CANADA Copyright © 2012 by Daryl James Fediuk Fediuk: Pharmacokinetic & Toxicological Characterization of DEET & Oxybenzone I Preface THIS THESIS IS DEDICATED TO MY PARENTS Fediuk: Pharmacokinetic & Toxicological Characterization of DEET & Oxybenzone II Preface ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My Ph.D. program at the Faculty of Pharmacy, University of Manitoba has been a memorable personal and professional journey. During the course of my studies, I have encountered many amazing people who have had tremendous positive influences on me. Every day at the Faculty offered a new learning experience, an unforgettable memory or a pleasant exchange of words. I would not be where I am today if I did not receive all the incredible support from everyone at the Faculty of Pharmacy. One of the most influential people that I had the pleasure to work with at the university was my advisor, Dr. Xiaochen Gu. Throughout my degree, I valued his kind, considerate, open-minded, and patient nature, and will never forget our long discussions about research and life. Dr. Gu introduced me to pharmaceutical research after my second year of the Pharmacy undergraduate program. His guidance, vision, and support were instrumental to my growth as a student beginning with my time as an undergraduate to the final completion of my Ph.D. I would also like to express a special thanks to all members of my Advisory Committee. Dr. Keith Simons was an invaluable mentor to me since I began my research as a summer undergraduate student and has always been a notable source of encouragement and advice. Dr. Fiona Parkinson has been a huge inspiration, challenging me with her expertise in research and experimental design. Dr. Michael Namaka was an excellent teacher of scientific fundamentals and methodology, which was greatly appreciated as it helped to develop and strengthen my Ph.D. project. I would also like to convey my sincere gratitude to Dr. Sreeneeranj Kasichayanula and Dr. Frank Burczynski for their assistance throughout my program. In addition, I wish to thank all Faculty of Pharmacy professors and staff, and the many graduate students that I was fortunate to meet at the university. I would like to acknowledge financial support from Pfizer Canada Inc. Centennial Pharmacy Research Award, Manitoba Health Research Council Graduate Studentship, University of Manitoba Graduate Fellowship, Leslie F. Buggey Graduate Scholarship in Pharmacy, and Manitoba Pharmaceutical Association/William G. Eamer Graduate Scholarship. Research support from the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Canada Foundation for Innovation, and Manitoba Institute of Child Health is also acknowledged. Outside of the university, I wish to thank my friends for their continued support including Rayhan, Sree, David, Harris, Ahmed, Ananth, John and the entire Azmat family. My wife, Melissa, whose patience and unconditional love, helped me stay determined and focused. My sister, Jena, whose support, loving nature and kindheartedness, was thoroughly treasured. I also wish to thank all members of my extended family, including brother-in-laws, sister-in-laws, aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. Last, but certainly not least, I wish to thank my parents, Harry and Nellie Fediuk, who were always there for me, every step of the way. Fediuk: Pharmacokinetic & Toxicological Characterization of DEET & Oxybenzone III Preface DISCLAIMER The presentation of this thesis is in the form of a sandwich thesis. Daryl Fediuk is the first author of Chapter 2 and 3, which are multi-authored manuscripts and have been published in the International Journal of Toxicology and Biopharmaceutics and Drug Disposition, respectively. Daryl Fediuk is also the first author of Chapter 4, which is a multi-authored manuscript and has been submitted for publication to the International Journal of Toxicology. For Chapter 2 data, Joshua Raizman performed all cellular studies in rat primary cortical neurons and astrocytes in the laboratory of Dr. Fiona Parkinson. The animal study and sample collection was performed by Daryl Fediuk, with assistance from Congcong Xie, Robert Hardy, and the Department of Zoology at the University of Manitoba. Behavioral testing was performed by Daryl Fediuk with assistance from Tao Wang, Robert Hardy, and Congcong Xie. Data analysis was completed by Daryl Fediuk. For Chapter 3 data, the animal study, the intravenous administration and the topical application were performed by Daryl Fediuk with technical assistance from Tao Wang, Heather Simpson, Susan Blair and Teri Whittington. Sample collection after intravenous and topical dosing was done by Daryl Fediuk and Dr. Xiaochen Gu. Concentration measurement was completed by Daryl Fediuk. For the cell culture assay, Yufei Chen assisted in the initial growth, maintenance and seeding of rat hepatoma cell line 1548 onto 96-well plates in the laboratory of Dr. Frank Burczynski. Removal and addition of cell media containing DEET and oxybenzone at pre-determined concentrations was done by Daryl Fediuk. Both Daryl Fediuk and Yufei Chen were involved in the addition of Cell Proliferation Reagent WST-1 (water-soluble tetrazolium salt) and the utilization of ELx 808 Ultra Microplate Reader for absorbance measurement. Data analysis was completed by Daryl Fediuk. For Chapter 4 data, concentration measurement of all metabolites was done by Daryl Fediuk. Yufei Chen and Daryl Fediuk had similar roles in the rat hepatoma cell line 1548 study performed with DEET and oxybenzone metabolites as was done previously with the two parent compounds. Data analysis was completed by Daryl Fediuk.

    May 23, 2007 Office of Pesticide Programs (OPP) Regulatory Public Docket (7502P) Environmental Protection Agency 1200 Pennsylvania Ave., NW Washington, DC 20460-0001 RE: Insect Repellent-Sunscreen Combination Products [EPA-HQ-OPP-2007-0087] Beyond Pesticides appreciates the prudent contemplation of insect repellent-sunscreen combination products EPA proposed in the reregistration eligibility decision (RED) for N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET). We also appreciate this opportunity to share our concerns over these products. Beyond Pesticides interest in this issue lies in our effort to restrict pesticide use in a manner that protects public health and the environment, and to advance alternatives that eliminate dependency on toxic chemicals. We oppose the reregistration of all DEET-sunscreen combination products for the following reasons: 1. DEET exposure can result in negative health effects. As the agency notes, the registration of DEET is unusual in that it is one of few residential-use pesticides that is applied directly to the skin. The result is that the public is being exposed to a pesticide that has the ability to cause in lab animals increased fetal loss, bone and skeleton abnormalities in the offspring of rabbits, birth defects in birds, reduction in size of the testes and degeneration, and has produced abnormal sperm with reduced motility. Additionally, the public is directly applying a chemical to their skin that is demonstrated to cross the placenta and move into fetal blood in humans, has the ability to cause mutagenicity and oxidative stress, can decrease sensory and motor skills, causes skin irritation and kills brain cells.1 2. Sunscreen exposure can result in negative health effects.

    FDA Proposes Sunscreen Regulation Changes February 2019 The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulates sunscreens to ensure they meet safety and eectiveness standards. To improve the quality, safety, and eectiveness of sunscreens, FDA issued a proposed rule that describes updated proposed requirements for sunscreens. Given the recognized public health benets of sunscreen use, Americans should continue to use broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher with other sun protective measures as this important rulemaking eort moves forward. Highlights of FDA’s Proposals Sunscreen active ingredient safety and eectiveness Two ingredients (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) are proposed to be safe and eective for sunscreen use and two (aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and trolamine salicylate) are 1 proposed as not safe and eective for sunscreen use. FDA proposes that it needs more safety information for the remaining 12 sunscreen ingredients (cinoxate, dioxybenzone, ensulizole, homosalate, meradimate, octinoxate, octisalate, octocrylene, padimate O, sulisobenzone, oxybenzone, avobenzone).
