- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on test system:
- The test method is based on reconstructed human epidermis models, which in their overall design (the use of human derived epidermal keratinocytes as cell source, representative tissue and cyto-architecture) closely mimic the biochemical and physiological properties of the upper parts of the human skin, i.e. the epidermis. The procedure described under this test method allows the hazard identification of irritant substances in accordance with UN GHS Category 1 or Category 2.
EpiDerm is a three-dimensional reconstructed human epidermis model EpiDermTM, comprised of normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes, which had been cultured to form a multilayered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis. It consisted of organised basal, spinous and granular layers, and a multilayered stratum corneum containing intercellular lamellar lipid layers arranged in patterns analogous to those found in vivo.
The principle of the reconstructed human epidermis model test is based on the premise that irritant substances are able to penetrate the stratum corneum by diffusion and are cytotoxic to the cells in the underlying layers. Cell viability was measured by dehydrogenase conversion of the vital dye MTT (3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide, Thiazolyl blue), into a blue formazan salt that was quantitatively measured after extraction from tissues. Irritant substances were identified by their ability to decrease cell viability below defined threshold levels (i.e.≤ 50% for UN GHS Category 1 or Category 2).
The EpiDerm™ System was manufactured according to defined quality assurance procedures. All biological components of the epidermis and the culture medium were tested by manufacturer for viral, bacterial, fungal and mycoplasma contamination. MatTek determines the ET50 value following exposure to Triton X-100 (1%) for each EpiDerm lot. The ET50 must fall within a range established based on a historical database of results. - Control samples:

- Executive summary:
The purpose of this study was to determine whether Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionate-O,O')-(triphenylphosphine)rhodium possesses cytotoxic properties to skin cells, which might lead to irritation of human skin, by using an artificial three-dimensional model of human skin (EpiDermTM model).
Three tissues were used for each treatment and concurrent control group. Cell viability was determined by using the MTT reduction assay and expressed as relative percentage of viability of the negative control-treated tissues.
Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionate-O,O')-(triphenylphosphine)rhodium was applied topically as solid test item to the model skin surface, which was moistened with Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (DPBS). DPBS was used as the negative control. 5% aqueous sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) was used as the positive reference item. An exposure time of 60 minutes was employed followed by a 42-hour post-treatment incubation period in fresh medium.
The mean cell viability observed in treated tissues, when compared with that of the concurrent negative control, was above the cut-off cell viability of 50% that distinguishes irritant from non-irritant test items. Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionate-O,O')-(triphenylphosphine)rhodium is therefore predicted to be non-irritant to skin.
The mean optical density (OD) of 3 negative control tissues was well within the acceptable range of ≥ 0.8 to ≤ 2.8. The viability of cells treated with the positive reference item, 5% SDS, fulfilled the acceptance criterion of ≤ 20%.
Reference
The mean viability of cells exposed to Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionate-O,O')-(triphenylphosphine)rhodium was 86.9% of the negative control and, hence, was above the cut-off percentage cell viability value that distinguishes irritant from non-irritant test items of > 50%. Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionate-O,O')-(triphenylphosphine)rhodium was considered to be non-cytotoxic and predicted to be non-irritant to skin.

- Details on study design:
- SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF CORNEAS: Only corneas from eyes free of defects were used. Corneas that had opacity greater than seven opacity units or equivalent for the opacitometer and cornea holders used after an initial one hour equilibration period had to be discarded. The corneas were dissected with a 2 to 3 mm rim of sclera and mounted in corneal holders with anterior (epithelium) and posterior (endothelium) chambers.Beginning with the posterior chambers, the chambers were filled to excess with pre-warmed Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium (EMEM) , while preventing bubble formation. The corneal holder was equilibrated at 32 °C ± 1 °C for at least one hour.
QUALITY CHECK OF THE ISOLATED CORNEAS: After the equilibration period, fresh pre-warmed EMEM was added to both chambers and baseline opacity readings were taken for each cornea. Corneas exhibiting macroscopic tissue damage (e.g. scratches, pigmentation, neovascularisation) or an opacity >7 opacity units were discarded. The mean opacity of all equilibrated corneas was calculated by use of an opacitometer. A minimum of three corneaswith opacity values close to the median value for all corneas were selected as negative control corneas. The remaining corneas were then distributed into treatment, solvent and positive control groups (three corneas/group).
NUMBER OF REPLICATES: 3
NEGATIVE CONTROL USED: 0.9% sodium chloride solution
POSITIVE CONTROL USED: 20% Imidazole (CAS no. 288-32-4) in 0.9% sodium chloride solution
TREATMENT METHOD: open-chamber method, 240 minutes exposure period
POST-INCUBATION PERIOD: no
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Number of washing steps after exposure period: After the exposure period the epithelium was washed with EMEM containing phenol red at least three times. Washing was repeated until no test item or discolouration (yellow or purple) of phenol red was visible. The corneas were rinsed a final time with EMEM only to remove any remaining phenol red from the chamber. After rinsing, the glass window was replaced on the anterior chamber to recreate a closed system and the chamber was filled with EMEM without phenol red.
- POST-EXPOSURE INCUBATION: not applicable
METHODS FOR MEASURED ENDPOINTS:
- Corneal opacity: Corneal opacity was determined by the amount of light transmission through the cornea measured quantitatively with the aid of an opacitometer resulting in opacity values measured on a continuous scale.
- Corneal permeability: 1 mL sodium fluorescein solution (5 mg/mL in 0.9% sodium chloride solution) was added to the anterior chamber (epithelial surface) while the posterior chamber (endothelial surface) was refilled with fresh EMEM. The holder was incubated in a horizontal position at 32 ± 1 °C for 90 ± 5 minutes. The amount of sodium fluorescein that crossed from the anterior to the posterior chamber was measured quantitatively using a microplate reader. Measurements at 490 nm were recorded as optical density (OD490). The fluorescein permeability values were determined using OD490 values based upon a visible light spectrophotometer using a standard 1 cm path length.
- Others (e.g, pertinent visual observations, histopathology): Corneal injury was assessed by evaluating the opacity and permeability of the cornea.
SCORING SYSTEM: After correcting the opacity and mean permeability (OD490) values for background opacity and the negative control permeability OD490 values, the mean opacity, and permeability OD490 values for each treatment group were combined in an empirically-derived formula to calculate an in vitro irritancy score (IVIS) for each treatment group as follows:
IVIS = mean opacity value + (15 x mean permeability OD490 value)
The opacity and permeability values were also evaluated independently to determine whether the test item induced corrosivity or severe irritation through only one of the two endpoints.
DECISION CRITERIA: The IVIS cut-off values for identifying test chemicals as inducing serious damage (UN GHS Category 1) and test chemicals not requiring classification for irritation or serious eye damage (UN GHS No Category) are given hereafter.

It can be concluded that the test item requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage under the UN GHS classification system. - Executive summary:
The eye irritation potential of
Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionato-O,O') (triphenylphosphine)
rhodium
was determined in an in vitro system (Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability Assay (BCOP) test method) according to OECD test guideline 437. The solid test item was suspended in a 0.9% sodium chloride solution with a final concentration of 20%Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionato-O,O') (triphenylphosphine)
rhodium
The test item and the controls were applied to the epithelial surface of the cornea by addition to the anterior chamber of the corneal holder. The exposure time for the test item and the controls was 240 minutes. The optical density (OD) was measured at a wavelength of 490 nm.
The acceptance criteria of validity were fulfilled in this test.
Following treatment with
Carbonyl(pentane-2,4-dionato-O,O') (triphenylphosphine)
rhodium
permeability value of 0.001 ±0.004 compared to the negative control were determined.
The calculated IVIS of 0.312 ±2.517 is below the cut-off value of 3 (UN GHS no
category). Hence, the test item did not show severely irritant or corrosive properties
and consequently it is not classified as a severe ocular irritant and/or corrosive,
according to UN GHS classification.
Reference
The corneas treated with the negative control item 0.9% sodium chloride solution
revealed a mean opacity value of 0.558 ±0.562 and a mean permeability value of
< 0.001. The calculated IVIS value of 0.553 ±0.551 was well below the cut-off value of
3 (UN GHS no category).
The corneas treated with the positive control item 20% Imidazole in 0.9% NaCl solution
revealed a mean opacity value of 80.212 ±23.289 and a mean permeability value of
0.822 ±0.359 compared to the solvent control. The calculated IVIS value of 92.547
±28.348 was within two standard deviations of the current historical mean and well above the cut-off value of 55. Hence, the
acceptance criteria for the test were fulfilled.
Following treatment with ROPAC a mean opacity of 0.292 ±2.483 and a mean
permeability value of 0.001 ±0.004 compared to the negative control were determined.
The calculated IVIS of 0.312 ±2.517 is below the cut-off value of 3 (UN GHS no
category). Hence, the test item did not show severely irritant or corrosive properties
and consequently it is not classified as a severe ocular irritant and/or corrosive,
according to UN GHS classification.
