Direct MTT reduction: functional check in tubes

25 μg ofthe test substance was added to 1.0 mL of MTT medium. Solution was incubated for 1 hour at culture conditions. After incubation, the medium was coloured orange . 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 0.037 what is < 0.08.The test substance is not very soluble in isopropyl alcohol. Average OD570 value from 2 wells was 0.001 what is < 0.08. It means that the test substance will go well washed from the tissue and small residue only is dissolved in isopropyl alcohol. Furthermore, the test substance does not absorb light at 570 nm. On the basis of results obtained, it was decided do not use concurrent colorant control in the MTT test.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the above-described experimental design, average viability of tissues treated by the test substance Reactive Yellow 85 was 83.2 % of negative control average value i.e. viability was > 50 %. The effect of the test substance was negative in EpiDermTM model. According to the classification criteria, the test substance, Reactive Yellow 85, is considered to have no category in accordance with UN GHS and is therefore considered as non-irritant.
Executive summary:

The test item, Reactive Yellow 85, 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 EpiDermTMSkin Irritation Test For use with MatTek Corporation’s Reconstructed Human Epidermal Model EPI-200-SIT (2012).

In 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 on previously moistened tissue and 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-described experimental design average viability of treated tissues was 83.2 %, i.e. viability was > 50 %.

The effect of the test substance was negative in EpiDermTM model (tissues were not damaged).

According to the classification criteria, the test substance, Reactive Yellow 85, is considered to have no category in regard to skin irritation.

Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
SOURCE OF COLLECTED EYES- Source: Breeding service CHOVSERVIS a.s., division TORO® Hlavečník, Hradec Králové, Czech Republic- Characteristics of donor animals (e.g. age, sex, weight): The eyes were enucleated as soon as possible after death. Only healthy animals (12 to 30 months old) considered suitable for entry into the human food chain were used as a source of corneas for use in the BCOP test. - Storage, temperature and transport conditions of ocular tissue (e.g. transport time, transport media and temperature, and other conditions):The risk of contamination was minimized (e.g., by keeping the container containing the eyes on ice, by adding antibiotics to the HBSS used to store the eyes during transport (e.g., penicillin at 100 IU/mL and streptomycin at 100 μg/mL).- Time interval prior to initiating testing: The time interval between collection of the eyes and use of corneas in the BCOP was minimized (typically collected and used on the same day). All eyes used in the assay were from the same group of eyes collected on a specific day.- indication of any existing defects or lesions in ocular tissue samples: Only corneas from eyes free of defects including scratched, and neovascularisation were used. The isolated corneas, after achieve normal metabolic activity (inductive incubation at 32 ± 1°C for one hour), were examined again. The corneas that show macroscopic tissue damage (e.g., scratches, pigmentation, neovascularization) or a baseline opacity >7 opacity units were discarded.
Vehicle:
physiological saline
Controls:
yes, concurrent positive control
yes, concurrent negative control
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL - Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):2g of the test substance was suspended in 10 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride solution. Open-chamber method was used, because the test substance at 20% concentration was viscous. The test substance (the test substance in quantity enough to completely cover the cornea) was applied directly to the epithelial surface of the cornea using the spatula. After dosing, the glass window was replaced on the anterior chamber to recreate a closed system.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hrs
Duration of post- treatment incubation (in vitro):
1.5 hr
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
The results were based on the selection criteria for the eyes, as well as the positive and negative control responses.Number of corneas per group: Exposed group (test substance) - 3 corneas (No. 7, 8, 9,) Positive control group (20% Imidazole) – 3 corneas (No. 4, 5, 6) Negative control group (0.9% NaCl) – 3 corneas (No. 1, 2, 3)
Details on study design:
SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF CORNEASSelection criteria for eyes used in BCOP: Only corneas from eyes free of defects including scratched, and neovascularisation were used. The isolated corneas, after achieve normal metabolic activity (inductive incubation at 32 ± 1°C for one hour), were examined again. The corneas that show macroscopic tissue damage (e.g., scratches, pigmentation, neovascularization) or an opacity >7 opacity units were discarded. Preparation: Corneas free of defects were dissected with a 2 to 3 mm rim of sclera remaining to assist in subsequent handling, with care taken to avoid damage to the corneal epithelium an endothelium. Isolated corneas were mounted in specially designed corneal holders that consisted of anterior and posterior compartments, which interfaced with the epithelial and endothelial sides of the cornea, respectively. Both chambers were filled to excess with pre-warmed Eagle's Minimum Essential Medium (EMEM). The device was then equilibrated at 32 ± 1°C for at least one hour in water bath to allow the corneas to equilibrate with the medium and to achieve normal metabolic activity, to the extent possible. Following the equilibration period, fresh pre-warmed EMEM was added to both chambers and baseline opacity readings were taken for each cornea. Any corneas that showed macroscopic tissue damage (e.g., scratches, pigmentation, neovascularization) or an opacity >7 opacity units were discarded. Each test group (test substance, concurrent negative and positive controls) consisted of the three eyes. The three corneas with opacity values close to the median value for all corneas were selected as negative control corneas. The remaining corneas were then distributed into treatment and positive control groups. QUALITY CHECK OF THE ISOLATED CORNEASFrom 25 eyes the 2 eyes were eliminated after inductive incubation, because the baseline opacity values were >7. Nine corneas were used for the study (the corneas No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9), 11 eyes was superfluous and remaining 3 were used for the testing of another substance.NUMBER OF REPLICATESNumber of corneas per group:Exposed group (test substance) - 3 corneas (No. 7, 8, 9,) Positive control group (20% Imidazole) – 3 corneas (No. 4, 5, 6) Negative control group (0.9% NaCl) – 3 corneas (No. 1, 2, 3) NEGATIVE CONTROL USED0.9% NaClSOLVENT CONTROL USED (if applicable)0.9% NaClPOSITIVE CONTROL USED20% ImidazoleAPPLICATION DOSE AND EXPOSURE TIME2g of the test substance was suspended in 10 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride solution; 4 hrsTREATMENT METHOD: open-chamber method POST-INCUBATION PERIOD: REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE- Number of washing steps after exposure period: - POST-EXPOSURE INCUBATION: After the exposure period, the negative control and the positive control substance was removed from the anterior chamber with EMEM (containing phenol red - the effectiveness of rinsing acidic or alkaline materials). The corneas were given a final rinse with EMEM (without phenol red). The EMEM (without phenol red) was used as a final rinse to ensure removal of the phenol red from the anterior chamber prior to the opacity measurement. The anterior chamber was then refilled with fresh EMEM without phenol red. The opacity and permeability of each cornea were recorded. The test substance was removed from the anterior chamber with EMEM – more repeatedly, because the test substance is coloured . The corneas (applied the test substance) were also rinsed with EMEM (containing phenol red). Lastly EMEM (without phenol red) was used for final rinsing. The test substance was complete removal, but corneas stayed mild coloured by the test substance (yellow colour). The anterior chamber was then refilled with fresh EMEM without phenol red. The opacity and permeability of each cornea were recorded.METHODS FOR MEASURED ENDPOINTS: - Corneal opacity: measured quantitatively with the aid of an opacitometer (Opacitometer, MC2 - Le spécialiste du laboratoire – France) resulting in opacity values measured on a continuous scale- Corneal permeability: The amount of sodium fluorescein that crosses into the posterior chamber was quantitatively measured with the aid of UV/VIS spectrophotometry (Spectrophotometer GENESYSTM 10 UV/VIS Scanning). The values of absorbance measured at 490 nm were recorded as optical density (OD490) values. This term was used because the measuring is performed with visible light spectrophotometer using a standard 1 cm path length.SCORING SYSTEM: In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS)IVIS = mean opacity value + (15 x mean permeability OD490 value)DECISION CRITERIA: IVISUN GHS ≤ 3 No Category> 3; ≤ 55 No prediction can be made ≥ 55 Category 1

Conclusions:
The In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS) for Reactive Yellow 85 was 17.65 but this result could be affected by higher opacity values (corneas were coloured by the test substance: mild yellow colour). On the basis of IVIS score the classification according to the criteria of the UN GHS resulted in category “No prediction can be made”. But because of the colouring of corneas this result is ambiguous.
Executive summary:

The test substance, Reactive Yellow 85, was tested for the evaluation the potential ocular corrosivity or severe irritancy as measured by its ability to induce opacity and increased permeability in an isolated bovine cornea.

The test was performed according to the OECD Test Guideline No. 437, Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability Test Method for Identifying i) Chemicals Inducing Serious Eye Damage and ii) Chemicals Not Requiring Classification for Eye Irritation or Serious Eye Damage, Adopted 26th July 2013.

 

The test was performed using nine isolated bovine corneas. The testing was performed on three groups of corneas: test substance treatment group, positive control group and negative control group. Three corneas per group were used.

Open-chamber method was used, because the test substance was viscous. The opacity and permeability of each cornea were measured. The In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS) was calculated from the values of opacity and permeability.

 

The In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS) for Reactive Yellow 85 was 17.65 but this result could be affected by higher opacity values (corneas were coloured by the test substance: mild yellow colour).

On the basis of IVIS score the classification according to the criteria of the UN GHS resulted in category “No prediction can be made”. But because of the colouring of corneas this result is ambiguous.
