At the end of the incubation the water was discarded and the dead epidermis units were frozen on 27 November 2015 (the frozen units can be used up to 6 months). Before use, the killed tissues were thawed at room temperature (at least 30 minutes in 2 mL of Assay Medium). Further use of killed tissues was similar to living tissues.- N. of replicates : 2- Method of calculation used: These tissues followed the same test item application and all steps as for the other tissues, except for the MTT step: MTT incubation was replaced by incubation with fresh Assay Medium to mimic the amount of colour from the test item that may be present in the test disks. OD readings were conducted following the same conditions as for the other tissues.- Check-method for possible direct MTT reduction with test item: 10 mg of test item was added to 2 mL MTT working solution and mixed. The mixture was incubated at 37°C in a shaking water bath for 3 hours.Purple colour of the mixture was detected in the test tube Thus, the test item reacted with MTT and therefore the use of additional controls was necessary.PREDICTION MODEL / DECISION CRITERIA (choose relevant statement)- The test item considered to be irritant to skin (Category 2), if the mean relative viability after 15 minutes exposure and 42 hours post incubation is less or equal (≤) to 50% of the negative control.- The test substance is considered to be non-corrosive to skin if the mean relative viability after 15 minutes exposure and 42 hours post incubation is more than (>) 50% of the negative control.OTHER:After receipt of the test system, the two indicators of the delivered kit were checked. Based on the observed colours, the epidermis units were in proper conditions.Additional controls: As the test item was showed being an MTT-interacting substance and the test item had an intrinsic colour, two additional test item-treated killed tissues were used for the non specific OD evaluation. As colour change (purple) was observed after three hours of incubation of the test item in MTT working solution, thus the test material might interact with MTT. Therefore, additional controls and data calculations were necessary to exclude the false estimation of viability.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Remarks:
- based on UN GHS/ CLP classification
- Conclusions:
- The test item was considered as being non-irritant to skin under the test conditions.
- Executive summary:
The skin irritation potential of the test substance was determined in accordance with the OECD nº 439 with GLP. This experiment was conducted in a reconstructed human epidermis model; EPISKIN (SM). Disks of EPISKINTM (SM) (three units) were treated with the test item (20 mg) and incubated for 15 minutes at room temperature. Exposure of the test item was terminated by rinsing with Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). The epidermis units were then incubated at 37°C for 42 hours in an incubator with 5% CO2. The viability of each disk was assessed by incubating the tissues for 3 hours with MTT solution at 37°C in an incubator with 5% CO2 protected from light. The precipitated formazan crystals were then extracted using acidified isopropanol and quantified spectrophotometrically. PBS and 5% (w/v) Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate (SDS) solution treated epidermis were used as negative and positive controls, respectively (three units / control). Two additional disks were used to provide an estimate of colour contribution (NSC living) from the test item. The possible MTT interaction potential of the test item was examined using two additional test item treated and two negative control treated killed epidermis units. Furthermore to avoid a possible double correction for colour interference, a third set of controls for non-specific colour in killed tissues (NSC killed), two additional disks were used. Following exposure with the test item, the mean cell viability was 90.2% compared to the negative control. This is above the threshold of 50%, therefore the test item was considered as being non-irritant to skin. The experiment met the validity criteria, therefore the study was considered to be valid. In conclusion, in this in vitro EPISKIN model test with freeze-dried test item, the results indicate that the test item is non-irritant to skin.
