In vitro test system
- Test system:
- human skin model
- Source species:
- other: Human Skin Model Test with EpiDermTM tissues models
- Cell type:
- other: Normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK) which have been cultured to form a multilayered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis
- Justification for test system used:
- The In vitro Skin Corrosion: Human Skin Model Test is based on the observation that skin corrosion (necrotic damage of viable skin cells) shows a high correlation with skin cell cytotoxicity, occurring rapidly after brief exposure of the skin barrier (stratum corneum) to a corrosive chemical. It is designed to predict and classify the skin corrosivity potential of a chemical by using a three-dimensional human epidermis model. Ultrastructurally, the skin models closely parallel human skin
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on test system:
- HUMAN SKIN MODEL TEST WITH EPIDERMTM TISSUES MODEL
- Model used: Human epidermis model derived from human keratinocytes and consists of normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK)
- Date of initiation of testing: March 27, 2017
TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Pre-incubation period: EpiDermTM tissues were pre-incubated at least 1 - 24 hours before dosing. Inserts were transferred from the refrigerator into 6-well plates containing pre-warmed assay medium (temperature not specified)
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: EpiDermTM tissues were treated with the test item and a positive and negative control and prepared in duplicate. During treatment, EpiDermTM tissues within a set of well plates were kept at room temperature for a 3 ± 0.5 minute exposure period. The second replicate of well plates underwent a 60 ± 5 minute exposure period in an incubator (37 ± 1.5 °C, 5 ± 0.5 % CO2)
- Temperature of post-treatment incubation: As part of the MTT-100 assay (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazole-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazoliumbromide), tissues were incubated for 3 hours (37 ± 1.5 °C, 5 ± 0.5 % CO2)
REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
- Volume and number of washing steps: 50 µL (79.4 µL/cm2 according to guideline) of the test item and controls was dispensed directly onto duplicate EpiDermTM tissue surfaces. After the exposure periods, the tissues were removed from the 6-well plate and gently
rinsed using a wash bottle / multi-pipette containing DPBS to remove any residual test material (20 times). Excess DPBS was removed by gently shaking the tissue insert and blotting the lower surface with blotting paper
- Observable damage in the tissue due to washing: No
- Modifications to validated SOP: Yes, at the end of the exposure period the tissues were rinsed using DPBS instead of PBS specified in the guideline
MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: The MTT-solution was prepared freshly on day of use (resulting: 1 mg/mL). MTT concentrate from MatTek, MTT diluent from MatTek
- Incubation time: Well plates containing MTT solution (300 µL) were prepared in the pre-warming period and kept in an incubator (37 ± 1.5 °C, 5 ± 0.5% CO2) until required. Following rinsing after the exposure period, the tissues were transferred from the holding plates to the MTT-plates and incubated for a 3 hour period (37 ± 1.5 °C, 5 ± 0.5% CO2)
- Spectrophotometer: Microplate reader (Versamax®, Molecular Devices, SoftMax Pro Enterprise (version 4.7.1))
- Wavelength: 570 nm (OD570)
- Filter: No reference filter
NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES: Tissues prepared in duplicate
CONTROL TISSUES USED IN CASE OF MTT DIRECT INTERFERENCE
- Justification: A test item may interfere with the MTT endpoint if: a) it is coloured and/or b) able to directly reduce MTT
- Pre-test for colour interference: 50 µL of the test item were added to 0.3 ml of deionised water (transparent glass test-tube). The mixture was incubated in the incubator (37 ± 1.5 °C, 5 ± 0.5 % CO2) for 60 min. At the end of the exposure time, the mixture was shaken and the presence and intensity of the staining (if any) was evaluated. If the solution changed colour significantly, the test item is presumed to have the potential to stain the tissue
- Pre-test for direct MTT reduction: To test if an item directly reduces MTT, 50 µL of the test item were added to 1 ml of a MTT/DMEM solution (1 mg/mL) and were incubated in the incubator (37 ± 1.5 °C, 5 ± 0.5 CO2) for 60 minutes. Untreated MTT/DMEM solution (1 mg/mL) medium was used as control. If the MTT/DMEM solution (1 mg/mL) turns blue/purple, the test item reduces MTT and an additional test on freeze-killed tissues must be performed

- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- The relative mean tissue viability calculated as a percentage of the negative control was 47.6% after the 60 minutes exposure and 76% after the 3 minutes exposure. In accordance with CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, the substance can be considered as non-corrosive to the skin.
- Executive summary:
An in vitro skin corrosion study was undertaken using a Human Skin Model Test with EpiDerm™ tissues model to determine the corrosive potential of the reaction mass of morpholine and 6-[(p-tosyl)amino]hexanoic acid, compound with morpholine (1:1) in accordance with the OECD Testing Guideline 431. The test was GLP-compliant.
Reaction mass of morpholine and 6-[(p-tosyl)amino]hexanoic acid, compound with morpholine (1:1) did not reduce MTT ( 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazole-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazoliumbromide), neither did it dye water in a pre-test, indicating that the substance would not interfere with the MTT endpoint.
Independent duplicate tissues of EpiDerm™ were exposed to either the test item, the negative control (deionised water), or the positive control (8.0 N KOH) for 3 minutes and 1 hour, respectively. The validity of the test system and the specific batch of the tissue models was confirmed according to the assay acceptability criteria. After exposure of the tissues to the test item the relative absorbance value decreased to 76.0% after 3 minutes exposure. After 1 hour exposure the relative absorbance value was reduced to 47.6%. Both values did not affect the threshold for corrosivity which is defined to be 50% after the 3 minutes exposure and 15% after the 1 hour exposure. Therefore, the test item is not considered to be corrosive. In conclusion, it can be stated that in this study and under the reported experimental conditions, the test item Reaction mass of morpholine and 6-[(p-tosyl)amino]hexanoic acid, compound with morpholine (1:1) is non corrosive to skin according to Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 on the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures.
