- Characteristics of donor animals: maximum 12 month old donor cattle (typically 5 to 8 months)
- Storage, temperature and transport conditions of ocular tissue: The isolated eyes were transported in HBSS (with streptomycin / penicillin) in a cooling box.
- Time interval prior to initiating testing: Test was initiated as soon as possible after delivery of the eyes.
- indication of any existing defects or lesions in ocular tissue samples: no

- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 750 (± 8) µL
- Concentration (if solution): undiluted - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 10 min ± 30 sec (at 32 ± 1 °C)
- Duration of post- treatment incubation (in vitro):
- 2 h ± 10 min (at 32 ± 1 °C)
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- Number of eyes for the test item/ negative control/ positive control: 3
- Details on study design:
- SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF CORNEAS: A careful macroscopic examination was performed on all eyes to detect the presence of any defects (opacity, scratches, pigmentation, etc). Any eyes with defects were discarded. The tissues surrounding the eyeball were carefully pulled away and the cornea, surrounded by approximately 2 to 3 mm of sclera, was dissected out. The isolated corneas were stored in HBSS until all corneas had been prepared.
QUALITY CHECK OF THE ISOLATED CORNEAS: yes, eyes were free of defects
NUMBER OF REPLICATES: 3
NEGATIVE CONTROL USED: yes
POSITIVE CONTROL USED: yes
APPLICATION DOSE AND EXPOSURE TIME: 750 µl test item (100%), 10 min
TREATMENT METHOD: open chamber
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Number of washing steps after exposure period: 6. The corneas were rinsed 5 times with pre-warmed cMEM containing phenol red. Then, they were finally rinsed with pre-warmed cMEM without phenol red.
- POST-EXPOSURE INCUBATION: yes, 2 h
METHODS FOR MEASURED ENDPOINTS:
- Corneal opacity: determined by the amount of light transmission through the cornea via an opacitometer
- Corneal permeability: passage of sodium fluorescein dye measured with the aid of spectrophotometry (OD490).
- Others: After permeability determination, the corneas were removed from the holders and observed for opaque spots, other irregularities and any separation of the epithelium (macroscopic examination).
SCORING SYSTEM: In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS)
DECISION CRITERIA: The decision criteria as indicated in OECD 437 was used.

- Other effects / acceptance of results:
- OTHER EFFECTS:
- Visible damage on test system: Application of the test item did not induce corneal opacity or altered permeability. Based on the estimated scores, an IVIS of 1 was determined. Fluorescein fixation was observed on the corneas treated with the test item. Opacity, fluorescein fixation and thickening of the corneas were observed on those treated with the positive control.
DEMONSTRATION OF TECHNICAL PROFICIENCY: no
ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
- Acceptance criteria met for negative control: yes
- Acceptance criteria met for positive control: yes
Acceptance criteria
For the validation of an experiment, the following criteria had to be fulfilled:
- the mean IVIS of the positive control corneas should fall within two standard deviations of the historical mean
- the mean opacity of the negative control corneas should be < 1.8
- the mean OD490 nm of the negative control corneas should be < 0.0269
