Test animals

Species:
other: EpiSkin reconstructed human epidermis model (SkinEthic Laboratories)
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
organotypic reconstructed three-dimensional model of the human epidermis

Test system

Type of coverage:
other: direct application
Amount / concentration applied:
10 mg + 5 µL aqua dest.
The amount of aqua dest. was increased to 50 µL to allow for evenly spreading of the test item to match size of the tissue.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
15 minutes
Observation period:
42 +/- 1 h
Details on study design:
3 replicate tissues are dosed with the test item, the negative control (PBS) and the positive control (5% SDS), respectively. After 15 minutes treatment period at room temperature the test item and the controls are rinsed off with PBS and the tissues are post-incubated for 42 +/- 1 h. Then the tissues are stained via MTT for 3 hours. Isopropanol extracts are measured photometrically at 550 nm.

In vivo

Irritant / corrosive response data:
If mean tissue viability is > 50% relative to the mean negative control, the test item is classified as non-irritant (EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category).
If mean tissue viability is <= 50% relative to the mean negative control, the test item is classified as irritant (EU CLP and UN GHS: Category 2).
Other effects:
The test item showed no direct MTT reducing capability and no colouring potential.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: non-irritant; EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: OECD 439
Conclusions:
The test item is classified as "non-irritant" (No Category).
Executive summary:

In the in vitro skin irritation test using the EpiSkin human epidermis model 10 mg test item + 50 µl A. dest. were applied topically for 15 minutes. After 42 h post-incubation cytotoxic effects were determined via MTT reduction assay.

The mean relative tissue viability (% negative control) was > 50%.

The test item is therefore classified as "non-irritant" (EU CLP and UN GHS: No Category).

This study is classified as acceptable:

OD550 of the blank is < 0.1 (0.045).

Mean OD550 of the three negative control tissues is >= 0.6 and <= 1.5 (0.855).

Mean relative tissue viability of the three positive contol tissues is <= 40% (1.8%).

Standard deviation (SD) of relative tissue viability obtained from each three concurrently tested tissues is < 18% (0.2% - 4.5%).

This study satisfies the requirement for Test Guideline OECD 439 for in vitro skin irritation.
