Other effects / acceptance of results:

After rinsing, tissues remained uneven coloured brown. The tissue with the lowest OD570was pierced at rinsing what could have influence on lower intensity of its colouring at MTT test.The mean OD570 of the NC tissue was 2.004 ±0.047 which meets the acceptance criteria of ≥ 0.8 and ≤ 2.8.The mean viability of the PC tissues expressed as % of the negative control tissues is 2.4% which meets the acceptance criterion of ≤ 20 %. The SD calculated from individual % tissue viabilities of the 3 identically treated replicates for the positive control, negative control and test substance was 12.4 what is < 18 %.All study acceptance criteria were fulfilled.

Any other information on results incl. tables

Direct MTT reduction: functional check in tubes

25 mg ofthe test substance was addedto 1.0 mL of MTT medium. Suspension was incubated for 1 hour at culture conditions. After incubation, the medium was coloured red-brown. The test substance does not reduce MTT directly.

Colour interference

The test substance is soluble in water for injection. OD570 of solution in water for injection was > 3 what is > 0.08.

The test substance is not soluble in isopropyl alcohol. Average OD570 value from 2 wells was 0.005 what is < 0.08.

It means that the test substance will go well washed from the tissue and any residue is not dissolved in isopropyl alcohol. On the basis of results obtained, it was decided do not use concurrent colorant control in the MTT test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

Under the above-described experimental design, average viability of tissues treated by the test substance Direct Brown 103 was 60.9 % of negative control average value, i.e. viability was > 50 %. The effect of the test item was negative in EpiDermTM model (tissues were not damaged).According to the classification criteria, the test substance, Direct Brown 103, is considered to have no category in accordance with UN GHS and is therefore considered a non-irritant.

Executive summary:

The test item, Direct Brown 103, was assayed for the in vitro skin irritation in human epidermal model EpiDermTM. The test was performed according to the OECD Test Guideline No. 439: In Vitro Skin Irritation: Reconstructed Human Epidermis Test Method test (2015) and Protocol for: In Vitro EpiDerm^TMSkin Irritation Test For use with MatTek Corporation’s Reconstructed Human Epidermal Model EPI-200-SIT.

In the preliminary experiments neither colour interference with the endpoint nor direct MTT reduction were found.

After pre-incubation of tissues, 25 mg of the test substance was placed directly atop to the previously moistened tissue and it was spread on the entire tissue surface. The length of exposure was 60 minutes. Three tissues were used for the test substance and for positive and negative controls.

After removal of the test substance, tissues were post-incubated for approximately 42 hours. Three hours incubation with MTT and two hours extraction period with shaking followed then. Optical density (OD570) of isopropyl alcohol extracts was measured on a spectrophotometer. Relative cell viability was calculated for each tissue as % of the mean viability of the negative control tissues.

Under the above-decribed experimental design, average viability of tissues treated by the test substance was 60.9 %, i.e. viability was > 50 %.

The effect of the test substance was negative in EpiDerm^TMmodel (tissues were not damaged).

According to the classification criteria, the test substance, Direct Brown 103, is considered to have no category in regard to skin irritation.
