- Observation period (in vivo):
- Immediate opacity measurement and permeability evaluation of the cornea
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- Three corneas for each treatment group (total 9 corneas)
- Details on study design:
- 6.4.1. Preparation of corneas
All eyes were carefully examined for defects by holding the eyes submersed in physiological saline. Those exhibiting unacceptable defects, such as opacity, scratches, pigmentation and neovascularization were discarded.
The isolated corneas were stored at 32 1 C in a petri dish with cMEM (Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium (Invitrogen Corporation, Breda, The Netherlands) containing 1% (v/v) L-glutamine (Invitrogen Corporation) and 1% (v/v) Foetal Bovine Serum (Invitrogen Corporation)). The isolated corneas were mounted in a corneal holder (one cornea per holder) of MC2 (Clermont, France) with the endothelial side against the O-ring of the posterior half of the holder. The anterior half of the holder was positioned on top of the cornea and tightened with screws. The compartments of the corneal holder were filled with cMEM of 32 1 C. The corneas were incubated for the minimum of 1 hour at 32 1 C.
6.5. Cornea selection and Opacity reading
After the incubation period, the medium was removed from both compartments and replaced with fresh cMEM. Opacity determinations were performed on each of the corneas using an opacitometer (OP-KIT, MC2, Clermont, France). The opacity of each cornea was read against an air filled chamber, and the initial opacity reading thus determined was recorded. Corneas that had an initial opacity reading higher than 3 were not used. Three corneas were selected at random for each treatmentgroup.
6.6. Treatment of corneas and opacity measurements
The medium from the anterior compartment was removed and 750 l of the negative control, 20% (w/v) Imidazole solution (positive control) or 20% (w/w) test substance solution were introduced onto the epithelium of the cornea. The holder was slightly rotated, with the corneas maintained in a horizontal position, to ensure uniform distribution of the solutions over the entire cornea. Corneas were incubated in a horizontal position for 240 10 minutes at 32 1 C. After the incubation the solutions were removed and the epithelium was washed at least three times with MEM with phenol red (Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium, Invitrogen Corporation). Possible pH effects of the test substance on the corneas were recorded. The anterior and the posterior compartment were refilled with fresh cMEM and an opacity determination was performed without any further incubation. After the completion of the incubation period each cornea were inspected visually for dissimilar opacity patterns and the opacity determination was performed.
6.7. Opacity measurement
The opacitometer determined the difference in the light transmission between each control or treated cornea and an air filled chamber. The numerical opacity value (arbitrary unit) was displayed and recorded. The change in opacity for each individual cornea (including the negative control) was calculated by subtracting the initial opacity reading from the final post-treatment reading. The corrected opacity for each positive control or test substance treated cornea was calculated by subtracting the average change in opacity of the negative control corneas from the change in opacity of each positive control or test substance treated cornea.
The mean opacity value of each treatment group was calculated by averaging the corrected opacity values of the treated corneas for each treatment group.
6.8. Application of sodium fluorescein
Following the final opacity measurement, permeability of the cornea to Na-fluorescein (Merck) was evaluated.
The medium of both compartments (anterior compartment first) was removed. The posterior compartment was refilled with fresh cMEM. The anterior compartment was filled with 1 ml of 5 mg Na-fluorescein /ml cMEM solution. The holders were slightly rotated, with the corneas maintained in a horizontal position, to ensure uniform distribution of the sodium-fluorescein solution over the entire cornea. Corneas were incubated in a horizontal position for 90 5 minutes at 32 1 C.
6.9. Permeability determinations
After the incubation period, the medium in the posterior compartment of each holder was removed and placed into a sampling tube labelled according to holder number. 360 l of the medium from each sampling tube was transferred to a 96-well plate. The optical density at 490 nm (OD490) of each sampling tube was measured in triplicate using a microplate reader (Multiskan spectrum, Thermo labsystems, Breda, The Netherlands). Any OD490 that was 1.500 or higher was diluted to bring the OD490 into the acceptable range (linearity up to OD490 of 1.500 was verified before the start of the experiment). OD490 values of less than 1.500 were used in the permeability calculation.
The mean OD490 for each treatment was calculated using cMEM corrected OD490 values. If a dilution was performed, the OD490 of each reading was corrected for the mean negative control OD490 before the dilution factor was applied to the readings.
6.10. Electronic data capture
Observations/measurements in the study were recorded electronically using the following programme: Multiskan spectrum version 1.00 (Thermo labsystems, Breda, The Netherlands) for optical density measurement. - Irritation parameter:

- Other effects / acceptance of results:
- The negative control responses of the opacity and permeability values were less than the upper limits
of the laboratory historical range indicating that the negative control did not induce irritancy on the
corneas. The mean in vitro irritancy score of the positive control (20% (w/v) Imidazole) was 95 and
within the historical positive control data range (APPENDIX 3, Table 6). It was therefore concluded
that the test conditions were adequate and that the test system functioned properly. - Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- 9-Nitrominocycline induced severe ocular irritation through one endpoint (opacity) mainly, resulting in a mean in vitro irritancy score of 98 after 240 minutes of treatment.
Since 9-Nitrominocycline induced an IVIS ≥ 55.1, it is concluded that 9-Nitrominocycline is corrosive or severe irritant in the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability test under the experimental conditions described in this report.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Skin irritation:
Mean scores at 24, 48 and 72 hours for erythema were < 2.3 (actual value 0) and for edema were < 2.3 (actual value 0), therefore according to GHS criteria this substance was not considered a skin irritant.
Skin corrosion:
As the mean relative tissue viability for PF-06478031-01 was not below 50% (actual value 83%) after 3 minutes of treatment and not below 15% (actual value 25%) after 1 hour of treatment, it was not considered corrosive according to GHS criteria.
Serious eye damage/eye irritation:
9-Nitrominocycline induced severe ocular irritation through one endpoint (opacity) mainly, resulting in a mean in vitro irritancy score of 98 after 240 minutes of treatment. Since 9-Nitrominocycline induced an IVIS >= 55.1, it is concluded that 9 -Nitrominocycline is corrosive or severe irritant in the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability.
