Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

The results indicate that whilst copper oxide is essentially insoluble in artificial interstitial fluid, phosphate buffered solution (PBS) and artificial sweat solution, the compound is highly soluble in artificial gastric fluid (maximum release: 83.4% after 8 hours; 83.2% after 24 hours) and in artificial lysosomal fluid (maximum release: 86.7% after 2 hours; 78.6% after 72 hours). The solubility of strontium oxide is negligible in artificial interstitial fluid (1.82 %), PBS solution (9.44 %) and artificial sweat solution (11.45 %), but highly soluble in artificial lysosomal fluid (90.0 %) and completely soluble in artificial gastric fluid (100.2 %).

The analytical results of the dissolution and bioaccessibility of test item Strontium apatite, copper doped are summarized in the Tables from 1a to 1e.

The % of dissolution for Copper oxide and for Strontium oxide was calculated considering an initial Strontium apatite, copper doped load of 100 mg/L. The maximum possible release for Copper is 2780 µg/L, while for Strontium is 58526 µg/L (calculated from the test item composition).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The results indicate that Strontium apatite, copper doped is highly soluble in test media at pH 1.5 (artificial gastric fluid) and 4.5 (artificial lysosomal fluid). In artificial gastric fluid, 83.4% and 83.2% of copper oxide was released after 8 hours and 24 hours, respectively and in artificial lysosomal fluid maximum release of 86.7% was observed after 2 hours and 78.6% of copper oxide was released after 72 hours. Strontium oxide is highly soluble in artificial lysosomal fluid (90.0 % of strontium oxide was released after 72 hours) and completely soluble in artificial gastric fluid (100.2 % of strontium oxide was released after 24 hours).
Strontium apatite, copper doped is less soluble in test media at pH 6.5 and above. Copper oxide is essentially insoluble in artificial interstitial fluid (maximum release of 0.52% observed after 2 hours, and no release observed after 168 hours), phosphate buffered solution (0.17 % of copper oxide released after 24 hours) and artificial sweat solution (maximum of 2.93 % of copper oxide released after 2 hours). Also, the solubility of strontium oxide is low in artificial interstitial fluid (1.82 % of strontium oxide released after 168 hours), PBS solution (9.44 % of strontium oxide released after 24 hours) and artificial sweat solution (11.45 % of strontium oxide released after 168 hours).
Both copper and strontium oxides are highly soluble in artificial gastric fluid and in artificial lysosomal fluid while have the lowest solubility in artificial interstitial fluid.
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to determine the dissolution and bioaccessibility of test item Strontium apatite, copper doped in five artificial physiological test media selected to simulate relevant human-chemical interactions (Pardo Martinez 2016).

The study was performed according the method described by Stopford et al. (2003) and SANCO/3029/99 guideline and is a GLP-compliant. This study is considered reliable without restrictions (Klimisch 1) and is suitable for use as a key study for this endpoint.

The dissolved amount of the test item was quantified by the mass concentration of copper and strontium in five artificial physiological test media (phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (pH 7.2), artificial interstitial fluidor Gamble’s solution (pH 7.4), artificial sweat solution (pH 6.5), artificial lysosomal fluid (pH 4.5) and artificial gastric fluid (pH 1.5)) at specific time intervals using ICP-MS analysis. 

Copper oxide is essentially insoluble in artificial interstitial fluid and PBS solution, and slightly soluble in artificial sweat solution (maximum release: 2.93% after 2 hours; 1.31% after 168 hours), while is highly soluble in artificial gastric fluid (maximum release: 83.4% after 8 hours; 83.2% after 24 hours) and in artificial lysosomal fluid (maximum release: 86.7% after 2 hours; 78.6% after 72 hours). Strontium oxide is slightly soluble in artificial interstitial fluid (1.82 %), quite soluble in PBS solution (9.44 %) and in artificial sweat solution (11.45 %), highly soluble in artificial lysosomal fluid (90.0 %) and completely soluble in artificial gastric fluid (100.2 %).
