SCORING SYSTEM:
In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS)
DECISION CRITERIA:
For an acceptable test the following positive control criterion should be achieved:
20% w/v Imidazole was used for positive control purposes. The test was acceptable if the positive control produced an In Vitro Irritancy Score which fell within two standard deviations of the historical mean collated during the previous 12 months for this testing facility.
For an acceptable test the following negative control criteria should be achieved:
Sodium chloride 0.9% w/v was used for negative control purposes. The test was acceptable if the negative control produced an In Vitro Irritancy Score which is less than or equal to the upper limit for background opacity and permeability values, or an overall IVIS value of < 3 calculated from the previous 12 months data for this testing facility. - Irritation parameter:
- in vitro irritation score
- Value:
- 122.5
- Negative controls validity:
- valid
- Remarks:
- 0.7
- Positive controls validity:
- valid
- Remarks:
- 78.3
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- According to UN GHS Classification, the test item N,N,N-trimethyl-3-{[(2E)-3-phenylprop-2-enoyl]amino}propan-1-aminium chloride causes serious eye damage and is classified as Category 1 under the conditions of the test.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this test was to identify test items that can induce serious eye damage and to identify test items not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage. The Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) test method is an organotypic model that provides short-term maintenance of normal physiological and biochemical function of the bovine cornea in vitro. In this test method, damage by the test item is assessed by quantitative measurements of changes in corneal opacity and permeability. The test method can correctly identify test items (both chemicals and mixtures) inducing serious eye damage as well as those not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage, as defined by the United Nations (UN) Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Items (GHS). Test items inducing serious eye damage are classified as UN GHS Category 1. Items not classified for eye irritation or serious eye damage are defined as those that do not meet the requirements for classification as UN GHS Category 1 or 2 (2A or 2B), i.e. they are referred to as UN GHS No Category.
The test item was applied at a concentration of 20% w/v in sodium chloride 0.9% w/v for 240 minutes. Negative and positive control items were tested concurrently. The two endpoints, decreased light transmission through the cornea (opacity) and increased passage of sodium fluorescein dye through the cornea (permeability) were combined in an empirically derived formula to generate an In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS).
The In Vitro irritancy score for the test item was 122.5. Positive and negative control results were valid. According to UN GHS Classification, the test item N,N,N-trimethyl-3-{[(2E)-3-phenylprop-2-enoyl]amino}propan-1-aminium chloride causes serious eye damage and is classified as Category 1 under the conditions of the test.
Reference
The positive control In Vitro Irritancy Score was within the acceptance range. The positive control acceptance criterion was therefore satisfied.
The negative control values were within accepted limits. The negative control acceptance criteria were therefore satisfied.
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- adverse effect observed (irreversible damage)
