Test animals
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- This in vitro study was performed to assess the irritation potential of D-Tryptophan Methyl Ester HCl by means of the Human Skin Model Test.
Test system
- Amount / concentration applied:
- Approximately 25 mg of the test item (powder) were applied to each tissue, wetted with 40 μL DPBS, and spread to match the tissue size.
30 μL of either the negative control (DPBS) or the positive control (5% Sodium lauryl sulfate) were applied to each tissue. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 60 minutes
- Details on study design:
- Three tissues of the human skin model EpiDerm™ were treated with the test item, the negative or the positive control for 60 minutes.

- Basis: mean. Time point: 60 min. (migrated information)
Any other information on results incl. tables
The mean OD of the three negative control tissues was calculated. This value corresponds to 100% tissue viability in the current test. For each individual tissue treated with the test item or the positive control the individual relative tissue viability was calculated.
For the test item and the positive control the mean relative viability +/- standard deviation of the three individual tissues were calculated and used for classification according to the following prediction model:
For the current test, an irritation potential of a test item according to EU classification R38 (according to directive 67/548/EEC), H315 (according to regulation (EC) 1272/2008) is recommended if the mean relative tissue viability of three individual tissues is reduced
below 50% of the negative control. If the mean tissue viability is above 50 % the substance is non-irritant.
The test item showed a mean tissue viability of 83.7 %
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
- Conclusions:
- In conclusion, it can be stated that in this study and under the experimental conditions reported, the test item D-Tryptophan Methyl Ester HCl
(applied as powder) is not irritant to skin.
