- Executive summary:
Objective
The objective of the present study was to investigate the potential of the test item to induce skin irritation in anin vitrohuman skin model.
Study Design
The test item was applied topically to a human reconstructed skin model followed by determination of the cell viability. Cell viability was determined by enzymatic conversion of vital dye MTT into a blue formazan salt and measurement of the formazan salt after extraction from tissues. The percent reduction of cell viability in comparison to untreated negative controls was used to predict the skin irritation potential.
Triplicates of the human skin RHE-model were treated with the test item, the negative or the positive control for 42 minutes (± 1 minute). 16 µL of either the negative control (DPBS-buffer) or the positive control (5% aqueous solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate) were applied to the tissues. Before application of 16 mg of the solid test item, 10 µL of deionised water was spread to the epidermis surface to improve the contact between the test item and the epidermis.
Results
All acceptability criteria after treatment with the negative control (DPBS-buffer) and the positive control (5% aqueous solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate) were met.
Following treatment with the test item, the tissue viability was 106.7% and, thus, higher than 50%, i.e. according to OECD 439 the test item is considered as non-irritant to skin (UN GHS: No Category).
Conclusion
Under the conditions of the present study, the test item is not considered to possess an irritant potential to skin (UN GHS: No Category).

- ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
After treatment with the negative control (0.9% sodium chloride solution) the calculated IVIS was 1.7 and, thus, within three standard deviations of the current historical mean of the negative control (IVIS: -1.4 – 3.0). After treatment with the positive control (20% Imidazole) the calculated IVIS was 107.9 and, thus, also within two standard deviations of the current historical mean of the positive control (IVIS: 83.3 – 132.0). Therefore, the study fulfilled the acceptance criteria.
The resulting classification of the test item in this study is unequivocal and no borderline results were obtained. Therefore, a single testing run composed of three corneas per group was considered sufficient. - Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the present study, did not show an eye hazard potential. The test item is not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage (UN GHS: No Category).
- Executive summary:
The objective of the present study was to examine the potential of the test item to induce serious eye damage in the BCOP assay. The BCOP assay with isolated fresh bovine corneas is an accepted in vitro model for ocular hazard assessment.
To determine the eye hazard potential the induced opacity and increased permeability was investigated in isolated bovine corneas after exposure to the test item as a 20% (w/v) solution in a 0.9% sodium chloride solution. As negative control 0.9% sodium chloride solution and as positive control 20% (w/v) Imidazole was used.
Three corneas were used per group (negative control, positive control or test item group).
After a first opacity measurement of the untreated bovine corneas, 750 µL of the dissolved test item, positive or negative control were applied on the corneas and incubated for 240 minutes. After the incubation phase the test item, the positive, and the negative control were rinsed from the corneas and the opacity was measured again.
After the opacity measurements, the permeability of the corneas was determined by application of a fluorescein solution for 90 minutes. The amount of fluorescein solution that crossed the cornea was measured spectrophotometrically.
The opacity and permeability assessments were combined to determine an In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS).
After treatment with the negative control (0.9% sodium chloride solution) the calculated IVIS was 1.7 (study acceptance criteria range: -1.4 – 3.0). Treatment with the positive control (20% Imidazole) revealed an IVIS of 107.9 (study acceptance criteria range: 83.3 – 132.0). Therefore, the study fulfilled the acceptance criteria.
The IVIS obtained after treatment with the test material was 0.0 and, thus, lower than 3, i.e. according to OECD 437 the test item is not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage (UN GHS: No Category).
Under the conditions of the present study, did not show an eye hazard potential. The test item is not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage (UN GHS: No Category).
