- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: Disks of EPISKIN TM(SM) were treated with the test item and incubated for 4 hours (corrosivity testing) and for 15 minutes (irritation testing) at room temperature.
- Temperature of post-treatment incubation (if applicable): After 15 minutes incubation time (irritation test) or 4 hours incubation time (corrosivity test), the EPISKIN TM (SM) units were removed and rinsed thoroughly with PBS to remove any remaining material from the epidermal surface. The rest of the PBS was removed from the epidermal surface with a pipette (without touching the epidermis).
For the irritation test, after rinsing, the units were placed into the plate wells with fresh pre-warmedMaintenance Medium (2 mL/well) below them and then incubated for 42 hours (±1 hour) at 37 °C in an incubator with 5% CO2, in a > 95% humidified atmosphere.
REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
-Volume and number of washing steps: After 15 minutes incubation time (irritation test) or 4 hours incubation time (corrosivity test), the EPISKINTM (SM) units were removed and rinsed thoroughly with PBS to remove any remaining material from the epidermal surface. The rest of the PBS was removed from the epidermal surface with a pipette (without touching the epidermis).
- Observable damage in the tissue due to washing: None
- Modifications to validated SOP: None
MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: In both the irritation and corrosion tests, MTT solution (2 mL of 0.3 mg/mL MTT working solution) was added to each well below the skin units (except for the two living colour control units). The lid was replaced and the plate incubated at 37 °C in an incubator with 5% CO2 for 3 hours (±5 minutes), protected from light, in a > 95% humidified atmosphere.

- Filter: Not specified
- Filter bandwidth: Not specified
- Linear OD range of spectrophotometer: Not specified
FUNCTIONAL MODEL CONDITIONS WITH REFERENCE TO HISTORICAL DATA
- Viability: In the irritation test, the mean cell viability was 105.6% compared to the negative control. This is above the threshold of 50%, therefore the test item was considered as non-irritant to skin.
- Viability: In the corrosivity test, the mean cell viability was 109.6% compared to the negative control. This is above the threshold of 35%, therefore the test item was considered as being non-corrosive.
- Barrier function: Appropriate cell morphology. The EPISKIN TM(SM) kits are manufactured according to ISO 9001. All biological components of the epidermis and the
kit culture medium have been tested for the presence of viruses, bacteria and mycoplasma. The quality of the final product is assessed by undertaking a MTT cell
viability test and a cytotoxicity test with sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS). These quality control experiments were conducted at SkinEthic laboratories (supplier of the
EPISKIN TM(SM) Test Kits used in this study.
- Morphology: A highly differentiated and stratified epidermis model is obtained after 13-day culture period comprising the main basal, supra basal, spinous and granular layers and a functional stratum corneum (Tinois et al., 1994)
- Contamination: None
- Reproducibility: All parameters were within acceptable limits and therefore the study was considered as valid.
NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES:
In the corrosivity test, two replicates per time point were used for the test item accompanied by two negative controls and two positive controls.
In the irration test, three replicates per time point were used for the test item accompanied by three negative controls and three positive controls.
For both tests, two additional test item-treated living tissues were used for the non-specific OD evaluation.
CONTROL TISSUES USED IN CASE OF MTT DIRECT INTERFERENCE
- Fresh tissues / killed tissues : For both tests, two additional test item-treated living tissues were used for the non-specific OD evaluation. No killed tissues were used.
- N. of replicates: two
After three hours of incubation, a yellow colour of the mixture was detected in the test tube. The test item did not therefore react with MTT and thus the use of additional controls was not necessary.
NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT TEST SEQUENCES / EXPERIMENTS TO DERIVE FINAL PREDICTION: one
PREDICTION MODEL / DECISION CRITERIA (choose relevant statement)
- The test substance is considered to be non-corrosive to skin if following exposure with Distilled Tricyclopentadiene, the mean cell viability was above the threshold of 35%. As the mean cell viability was 109.6% following exposure to TCPD when compared to the negative control, the test item was therefore considered as non-corrosive.
- Justification for the selection of the cut-off point(s) if different than recommended in TG 431 and 439: - Control samples:
- yes, concurrent negative control
- yes, concurrent positive control
- Amount/concentration applied:
- Negative Control

Expiry date: August 2020
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- In case of the corrosivity testing, 30 mg of test item was applied evenly to each of two test units and each additional control skin units and then 100 µL physiological saline was added to the test item to ensure good contact with the epidermis in each case. In case of the irritation testing, first an appropriate amount (10 µL) distilled water was applied to the epidermal surface in order to improve further contact between test item and epidermis and then 30 mg of test item were applied evenly to each of three test units and each additional control skin units. The amounts were sufficient to cover the epidermal surface.
- Duration of post-treatment incubation (if applicable):
- After 15 minutes incubation time (in the irritation test) or 4 hours incubation time (in the corrosivity test), the EPISKINTM (SM) units were removed and rinsed thoroughly with PBS to remove any remaining material from the epidermal surface as much as possible. The rest of the PBS was removed from the epidermal surface with a pipette (without touching the epidermis).
- Number of replicates:
- Two replicates per time point were used for test item (corrosivity test). Two negative controls and two positive controls were also run in the corrosivity test.
Three replicates per time point were used for test item (irritation test). Three negative controls and three positive controls were also run in irritation test.
In both tests, two additional test item-treated living tissues were used for the non-specific OD evaluation.
