Vehicle:

other: Deionised water

Control samples:

yes, concurrent negative control

yes, concurrent positive control

Amount/concentration applied:

Disks of EPISKINTM (SM) (three units) were treated with the test item and incubated for 15 minutes at room temperature. Exposure of the test item was terminated by rinsing with Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). The epidermis units were then incubated
at 37°C for 42 hours in an incubator with 5% CO2, in a >95% humidified atmosphere. The viability of each disk was assessed by incubating the tissues for 3 hours with MTT solution at 37°C in an incubator with 5% CO2, in a >95% humidified atmosphere,
protected from light. The precipitated formazan crystals were then extracted using acidified isopropanol and quantified spectrophotometrically.

PBS and 5% (w/v) Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate (SDS) solution treated epidermis were used as negative and positive controls, respectively (three units / control). For each treated tissue, the viability was expressed as a % relative to the negative control. If the
mean relative viability after 15 minutes exposure and 42 hours post incubation is less or equal (≤) to 50% of the negative control, the test item is considered to be irritant to skin.

Irritation / corrosion parameter:

% tissue viability

Value:

90.3

Negative controls validity:

valid

Positive controls validity:

not valid

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The substance is non-irritant to skin.

Executive summary:

The skin irritation was assessed using the EPISKIN test system according to OECD 439 test guideline in compliance with CLP. The substance is not irritating to skin.
