Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the above-described experimental design, the test substance N,N′-m-phenylenedimaleimide was not an irritant in the in vitro skin irritation test on human epidermal EpiDermTM tissues.
- Executive summary:
In an in vitro skin irritation assay in a human epidermal model EpiDermTM (16-650), PBS-moistened reconstructed human epidermis (RhE) tissue was exposed to 25 mg of N,N′-m-phenylenedimaleimide (99.6%) for 60±1 minutes ((25 minutes at room temperature and the remaining 35 minutes at 37±1°C). PBS was used for the negative control and 5% SDS was used for the positive control. After removal of the test substance, tissues were post-incubated for approximately 42 hours. Three hours incubation with MTT and a 2 hour isopropyl alcohol extraction period followed. The OD570 of isopropyl alcohol extracts was measured on a spectrophotometer. Relative cell viability was calculated for each tissue as % of the mean viability of the negative control tissues.
The colour of the test substance did not interfere with the endpoint. The test substance is not directly MTT reducing. The average viability of tissues treated by the test substance N,N′-m-phenylenedimaleimide was 73.9 % of negative control average value i.e. viability was > 50 %. The average viability of tissues treated by the positive control (5% SDS) was 3.3 % of negative control average value. According to these results, the test substance is not irritating.
This in vitro skin irritation study in the human epidermal model EpiDermTM is acceptable and satisfies the guideline requirement for an OECD 439 study.
