- Details on animal used as source of test system:
- EpiDerm™ tissues, Lot 19981 Kit D, were received from MatTek Corporation (Ashland, MA) on 08 Apr 2014 and refrigerated at approximately 4'C. Before use, tissues were incubated (37°C ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2) with assay medium (MatTek) for a one-hour equilibration. Equilibration medium was replaced with fresh medium before dosing.
- Justification for test system used:
- In accordance with the test guidelines.
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on test system:
- Test Article Reduction of MTT: 100 µI of the test article were mixed with 1 ml of MTT solution (1 mg/ml Methyl thiazole tetrazolium diluted in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM)). A Negative Control, 100 µI of tissue culture water, was tested concurrently. The solutions were incubated at room temperature in the dark for 60 minutes. After incubation, the solutions were visually inspected for purple coloration, which indicates that the test article reduced MTT. Since tissue Viability is based on MTT reduction, direct reduction by a test article can exaggerate viability, making a test article seem less irritating than it really is. The test article did not reduce MTT and the assay continued as per the protocol.
Mesh Compatibility: Pre-cut nylon meshes supplied with the tissues were placed on a slide and 30 µI of the test article or tissue culture water were applied. After 60 minutes exposure, the mesh was checked microscopically. No interaction between the test article or tissue culture water and the mesh was observed so the test article was dosed using the mesh as a spreading aid.
Dosing: 50 µI of the test article were applied to the top of each EpiDerm™ tissue. A nylon mesh was then placed on top to facilitate even distribution of the test article. The test article remained in contact with the EpiDerm™ tissue for 3 and 60 minutes. A Negative Control (TCH2O) and a Positive Control (KOH) were tested at 3 and 60 minutes. A nylon mesh was placed on top of each liquid control to facilitate even distribution of the material. Each treatment with test article or control was conducted in duplicate.
All tissues were dosed at ambient temperature. Tissues treated with the test article and controls for 3 minutes were maintained at ambient temperature until analyzed for Tissue Viability (MTT Reduction). Tissues to be treated for 60 minutes were dosed and then returned to the Incubator (37°C ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2) for the remainder of the 60-minute exposure period
Tissue Viability (MTT Reduction): At the end of the exposure period, each EpiDerm™ tissue was rinsed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and transferred to a 24-well plate containing 300 µI of MTT solution (1 mg/ml MTT in DMEM). The tissues were then returned to the Incubator for a three-hour MTT incubation period. Following the MTT incubation period, each EpiDerm™ tissue was rinsed with PBS and then treated overnight with 2.0 ml of extractant solution (isopropanol) per well. The absorbency of an aliquot of the extracted MTT formazan was measured In triplicate at 540 nm using a microplate reader (µQuant Plate Reader, BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT).
Analysis of Data: The mean absorbance value for each time point was calculated from the optical density (OD) of the duplicate tissues and expressed as percent viability for each sample using the following formula:
% viability = 100 X (OD sample/OD Negative Control)
Quality Controls: The Negative Controls meets the acceptance criterion if the mean OD of the two tissues at each time point is greater than or equal to 0.8 and is less than or equal to 2.8 (0.8 ≤ OD ≤ 2.8).
The Positive Control meets the acceptance criterion If the mean relative tissue viability at the 60 minute time point is less than 15% < 15%).
Inter-tissue viability meets the acceptance criterion if the difference between two identically treated tissues is no greater than 30%. Re-testing of the chemical is recommended if the resulting viability is near to a classification cut-off. Note: If necessary, the percent difference will be calculated between the mean of the two tissues and one of the tissues. If this difference is greater than 15%, then rejection should be considered.
Interpretation of Results: Skin Corrosion is defined as the production of irreversible tissue damage in skin following the application of test material. The percent viability calculated was used to determine corrosivity potential in the following manner:

- Executive summary:
OBJECTIVE: To predict and classify the skin corrosivity potential of a chemical by using a three-dimensional human epidermis model. This study is designed based on MatTek protocol "In Vitro EpiDerm™ Skin Corrosion Test" and follows the OECD Guideline for the Testing of Chemicals No. 431 In Vitro Skin Corrosion: Human Skin Model Test.
METHOD SYNOPSIS: MatTek EpiDermTMtissues were treated in duplicate with the test article. Negative Control and Positive Control for 3 minutes and 60 minutes. Following treatment, the viability of thetissues was determined using Methyl thiazole tetrazolium (MTT) uptake and conversion, and theabsorbance of each tissue was measured at 540 nm. The mean viability was then expressed as apercent of control values. The percent viability was used to determine corrosivity potential.

- EpiDerm™ tissues, Lot 19981 Kit D, were received from MatTek Corporation (Ashland, MA) on 08 Apr 2014 and refrigerated at approximately 4°C. Before use, tissues were incubated (37°C ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2) with assay medium (MatTek) for a one-hour equilibration. Equilibration medium was replaced with fresh medium before dosing.
- Justification for test system used:
- In accordance with test guidelines.
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on test system:
- Test Article Reduction of MIT: 100 µI of the test article were mixed with 1 ml of MTT solution (1 mg/ml Methyl thiazole tetrazolium diluted in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM)), A Negative Control, 100 µI of tissue culture water (TCH2O), was tested concurrently, The solutions were incubated at room temperature in the dark for 60 minutes, After incubation, the solutions were visually inspected for purple coloration, which indicates that the test article reduced MTT Since tissue viability is based on MTT reduction, direct reduction by a test article can exaggerate viability, making a test article seem less irritating than it really is. The test article did not reduce MTT and the assay continued as per the protocol.
Mesh Compatibility: Pre-cut nylon meshes supplied with the tissues were placed on a slide and 30 µI of the test article or TCH2O Negative Control were applied. After 60 minutes exposure, the mesh was checked microscopically, No interaction between the test article or TCH2O and the mesh was observed so the test article was dosed using the mesh as a spreading aid,
Dosing:
30 µI of the test article or control articles were applied to the EpiDerm ™ tissue. The nylon mesh was then placed on top to facilitate even distribution of the test material. A Negative Control (phosphate buffered saline (PBS)) and a Positive Control (5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution, MatTek) were tested concurrently, with a nylon mesh placed on top to facilitate even distribution of the material. Each treatment with test article or control was conducted in triplicate.
The exposure period for the test article and controls was 60 minutes. The dosed tissues were placed in an incubator at 37° ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2 for 35 ± 1 minutes, then returned to the sterile hood for the remainder of the 60-minute exposure period.
After dosing and incubation, the tissues were rinsed with PBS, blotted to remove the test substance and dry the tissue, and transferred to fresh medium. The rinsed EpiDerm™ tissues were returned to the incubator for 24 ± 2 hours. Medium was changed at 24 ± 2 hours. Tissues were returned to the incubator for an additional 18 ± 2 hours.
Tissue Viability (MTT Reduction): At the end of the incubation period, each EpiDerm™ tissue was rinsed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and transferred to a 24-well plate containing 300 µI of MTT solution (1 mg/ml MTT in DMEM). The tissues were then returned to the incubator for a three-hour MTT incubation period. Following the MTT incubation period, each EpiDerm TM tissue was rinsed with PBS and then treated with 2.0 ml of extractant solution (isopropanol) per well for at least two hours, with shaking, at room temperature. Two aliquots of the extracted MTT formazan were measured at 540 nm using a plate reader (µQuant Plate Reader, BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT).
Analysis of Data: The mean absorbance value for each time point was calculated from the optical density (OD) of the duplicate samples and expressed as percent viability for each sample using the following formula:
% viability =100 X (OD sample/OD Negative Control)
Quality Controls: The assay meets the acceptance criterion if the mean OD540 of the Negative Control tissues is ≥ 1.0 and ≤ 2.5, and the mean viability of Positive Control tissues, expressed as percentage of the Negative Control tissues, is ≤ 20%. In addition, the standard deviation (SD) calculated from individual percent tissue viabilities of the three identically-treated replicates is < 18%. - Control samples:

- Executive summary:
OBJECTIVE: To predict dermal irritation potential of test articles in the context of identification and classification of skin irritation hazard according to the European Union (EU) classification, United Nations Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) classification system (Category 2 and non-irritants), and OECD Guideline for the Testing of Chemicals No. 439 - In Vitro Skin Irritation: Reconstructed Human Epidermis Test Method. This study is designed based on MatTek protocol in vitro EpiDerm™ Skin Irritation Test.
METHOD SYNOPSIS: MatTek EpiDerm™ tissue samples were treated in triplicate with the test article, Negative Control and Positive Control for 60 minutes. Following treatment and subsequent incubation time, the viability of the tissues was determined using Methylthiazole tetrazolium (MTT) uptake and reduction. The absorbance of each sample was measured at 540 nm. The viability was then expressed as a percent of control values. If the mean tissue viability was ≤ 50%, the test material was classified as an irritant; if the mean tissue Viability was >50%, the test material was classified as a non-irritant.

- Preparations
After having carefully cleaned and sterilised the cornea holders, they were kept in the incubation chamber at 32 ± 1 °C.
On the day of the assay, the MEM without phenol red was supplemented with sodium bicarbonate, L-glutamine and 1% fetal calf serum (= complete MEM) and stored in a water bath at 32 ± 1 °C.
The same was performed with the MEM with phenol red, but without addition of sodium bicarbonate.
After the arrival of the corneas, they were examined and only corneas which were free from damages were used. The corneas were excised with a scalpel and cut from the globe with a 2-3 mm ring of sclera around the outside. Each cornea was transferred to a cornea holder in which pre-warmed cMEM (32 ± 1 °C) without phenol red was filled. The holders were then incubated for 1 hour in the incubation chamber at 32 ± 1 °C.
Experimental Parameters
Date of treatment: 31. Aug. 2017
Incubation time: 10 min.
Negative control: HBSS
Positive control: Dimethylformamide (undiluted)
Method Description
After the initial incubation, the medium was changed and the baseline opacity for each cornea was recorded. None of the corneas showed tissue damage; therefore, all corneas were used. For each treatment group (negative control solution, test item and positive control), three replicates were used. After removal of the pre-incubation medium (cMEM without phenol red), 750 μL negative control solution, test item and positive control were applied to each replicate.
According to the characteristics of the test item, the following treatment procedure was performed:
Closed Chamber Method
The respective substance (negative control solution, test item or positive control) was applied by pipetting 750 μL of the appropriate liquid through the refill hole in the holder on the cornea. The test item was given on the epithelium in such a manner that as much as possible of the cornea was covered with the test item.
Exposure time of the test item on the corneas was 10 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C. After thorough rinsing with cMEM with phenol red and final rinsing with cMEM without phenol red, the anterior chamber was filled with cMEM without phenol red, and the corneas were stored for additional 2 hours at 32 ± 1 °C (post-incubation).
After post-incubation time, the cMEM without phenol red was renewed in both chambers.
Then, the final opacity value of each cornea was recorded. The cMEM without phenol red was removed from the front chamber, and 1 mL sodium fluorescein solution (concentration: 4 mg/mL) was added to the front chamber.
The chambers were then closed again and incubated for 90 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C. After incubation, the content of the posterior chamber was thoroughly mixed. Then, the permeability of the cornea was measured as optical density of the liquid with a microtiter plate photometer at 492 nm. - Irritation parameter:

- Other effects / acceptance of results:
- The in vitro study was performed to assess corneal damage potential of Hatcol 1570 by quantitative measurements of changes in opacity and permeability in a bovine cornea.
The test item Hatcol 1570 was brought onto the cornea of a bovine eye which previously had been incubated with cMEM without phenol red at 32 ± 1 °C for 1 hour and whose opacity had been determined. The test item was incubated on the cornea for 10 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C. After removal of the test item and 2 hours post-incubation, opacity and permeability values were measured.
The test item was tested pure.
Under the conditions of the test, the test item Hatcol 1570 showed no effects on the cornea of the bovine eye. The calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 0.41.
According to OECD Guideline no. 437 (Jul. 2013), a substance with an IVIS ≤ 3 requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage.
The negative control (HBSS) and the positive control (undiluted dimethylformamide) have met the validity criteria.
No observations were made which might cause doubts concerning the validity of the study outcome. The test is considered valid. - Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the test item Hatcol 1570 showed no effects on the cornea of the bovine eye. The calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 0.41.
According to OECD Guideline no. 437 (Jul. 2013), a substance with an IVIS ≤ 3 requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage. - Executive summary:
Evaluation of Hatcol 1570 in the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) Test Method following OECD Guideline 437 and EU Method B.47
Findings and Results:
One valid experiment was performed.
Bovine corneas were used. They were collected from slaughtered cattle which were between 12 and 60 months old.
The test item Hatcol 1570 was brought onto the cornea of a bovine eye which had been incubated with cMEM without phenol red at 32 ± 1 °C for 1 hour and whose opacity had been measured.
The test item was incubated on the cornea for 10 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C. After removal of the test item and 2 hours post-incubation, opacity and permeability values were measured.
HBSS was used as negative control. The negative control showed no irritating effect on the cornea and the calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 0.43.
Dimethylformamide (DMF) undiluted was used as positive control. The positive control induced serious eye damage on the cornea and was within two standard deviations of the current historical mean. The calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 67.14.
Under the conditions of the study, the test item Hatcol 1570 showed no effects on the cornea of the bovine eye. The calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 0.41.
According to OECD Guideline no. 437 (Jul. 2013), a substance with an IVIS ≤ 3 requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage.

Additional information
Skin Corrosion/Irritation
In vivo skin corrosion/irritation:
Three in vivo skin irritation studies are also available for read-across substances:
The first study was conducted with CAS 11138-60-6 in accordance with OECD Guideline 404. No cutaneous reactions occurred in the 3 New Zealand White rabbits tested. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the skin.
The second study was conducted with CAS 91050-89-4 in accordance with OECD Guideline 404. After 24 h, 3 animals (New Zealand White rabbits) showed erythema, which persisted in 1 animal for 48 h. 72 h after exposure, all animals were free of erythema. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the skin.
The third study was conducted with CAS 78-16-0 in accordance with EU Method B.4. Very slight erythema and edema were observed in all animals (3 New Zealand White rabbits) 24 h after treatment which were fully reversible latest within 72 h. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the skin.
In vitro skin irritation:
GLP studies conducted according OECD Guideline 431 and 439 using reconstructed human epidermis concluded that the CAS No. 68130-53-0 is not irritating or corrosive to skin.
Eye Damage/Irritation
In vitro Eye Irritation: Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) Test
Bovine corneas were used. They were collected from slaughtered cattle which were between 12 and 60 months old.
The test item Hatcol 1570 was brought onto the cornea of a bovine eye which had been incubated with cMEM without phenol red at 32 ± 1 °C for 1 hour and whose opacity had been measured.
The test item was incubated on the cornea for 10 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C. After removal of the test item and 2 hours post-incubation, opacity and permeability values were measured.
HBSS was used as negative control. The negative control showed no irritating effect on the cornea and the calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 0.43.
Dimethylformamide (DMF) undiluted was used as positive control. The positive control induced serious eye damage on the cornea and was within two standard deviations of the current historical mean. The calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 67.14.
Under the conditions of the study, the test item Hatcol 1570 showed no effects on the cornea of the bovine eye. The calculated IVIS (in vitro irritancy score) is 0.41.
According to OECD Guideline no. 437 (Jul. 2013), a substance with an IVIS ≤ 3 requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage.
In vivo eye irritation
Four in vivo eye irritation studies are available for read-across substances:
The first study was conducted with CAS 11138-60-6 in accordance with OECD Guideline 405. In 2 animals (New Zealand White rabbits) slight exudation (grade 1) was observed at 1 h. At 24 h slight exudation (grade 1) was observed in 1 animals. These effects were completely reversible at 48 h. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.
The second study was conducted with CAS 78-16-0 in accordance with guideline 16 CFR 1500.42. No effects on the cornea or iris were observed in test animals. Slight redness of the conjunctivae was observed after 24 h in 3 animals (albino rabbits) and after 48 h in 4 animals which were fully reversible in all animals within 72 h. Slight chemosis of the conjunctiva was detected in 1 animal after 24 h which was fully reversible within 48 h.Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.
The third study was conducted with CAS 91050-89-4 in accordance with OECD Guideline 405. No effects on cornea and iris were observed. Slight redness of the conjunctivae was observed both, after 10 s and after continuous treatment. The effects were obvious after 1 and 6 h. After 10 s treatment, the effects were reversible within 48 h. After continuous treatment, redness reversed within 24 h. In addition, exudation was observed in both treatment groups, being reversible within 24 h (continuous treatment) and 48 h (10 s treatment), respectively. Chemosis was not observed. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.
The fourth study was conducted with CAS 78-16-0 in accordance with OECD Guideline 405 in New Zealand White rabbits. No effects on the cornea and the iris were observed. Conjunctival effects included slight to moderate redness and slight to severe discharge. No chemosis was seen. Additional signs of irritation included erythema and dried secretion on the upper and lower eyelids and convoluted eyelids. All effects were completely reversible within 48 h after application. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.
Justification for classification or non-classification
In accordance with Regulation (EC) 1272/2008, the available information does not allow for classification based on the lack of effects.
A report justifying the read-across approach is included in IUCLID Chapter 13.
