- Remarks:
- other: in vitro
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 14-Jun-2010 to 15-Jun-2010
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: The study has been performed according to OECD and/or EC guidelines and according to GLP principles.
Data source
Reference
- Reference Type:
- study report
- Title:
- Unnamed
- Year:
- 2 010
Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: OECD guideline 437 “Bovine corneal opacity and permeability (BCOP) test method for identifying ocular corrosives and severe irritants”
- Deviations:
- no
- GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)
Test material
- Details on test material:
- - Name of test material (as cited in study report): 4,4’-Methylene bis (2-chloroaniline)
- Substance type: Light yellow granules
- Physical state: Solid
- Stability under test conditions: Stable
- Storage condition of test material: At room temperature in the dark
Constituent 1
Test system
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 357 to 381 mg per cornea
- Concentration (if solution): 20% (w/w)
NEGATIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 750 µl of physiological saline per cornea
POSITIVE CONTROL
Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 750 µl per cornea
Concentration (if solution): 20% (w/v) Imidazole - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 240 minutes
- Details on study design:
- TEST SITE
- Isolated bovine cornea
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): yes
- Time after start of exposure: 240 minutes
SCORING SYSTEM:
- After exposure the cornea is thoroughly rinsed to remove the test substance followed by immediate opacity measurement and permeability evaluation of the cornea.
- The mean opacity and mean permeability values (OD490) were used for each treatment group to calculate an in vitro score:
In vitro irritancy score (IVIS) = mean opacity value + (15 x mean OD490 value).
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE:
- opacitymeter and microplate reader
DATA EVALUATION:
A test substance that induces an IVIS ≥ 55.1 is defined as a corrosive or severe irritant
Results and discussion
In vivo
Results
- Irritation parameter:
- other: In vitro irritancy score (IVIS)
- Basis:
- mean
- Time point:
- other: 240 minutes
- Score:
- 8.1
- Other effects:
- - The corneas were clear after the 240 minutes of treatment with 4,4’-Methylene bis (2-chloroaniline).
- No pH effect of the test substance was observed on the rinsing medium.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not severe irritant or corrosive
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The positive and negative controls were within the historical control data.
4,4’-Methylene bis (2-chloroaniline) did not induce ocular irritation through both endpoints, resulting in a mean in vitro irritancy score of 8.1 after 240 minutes of treatment.
Finally, it is concluded that this test is valid and that 4,4’-Methylene bis (2-chloroaniline) is not severe irritant or corrosive in the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability test under the experimental conditions described in the report.
