Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on the results of the study (103.1% tissue viability) the test article is not irritating in the EpiDerm skin irritation model.
Executive summary:

The skin irritation potential of the test article was evaluated in the 3D Reconstructed Human Epidermis model EpiDerm (MatTek). The study was conducted according to OECD 439 in compliance with OECD GLP principles. Tissues were dosed in triplicate with 30 uL test article, negative control (PBS) or positive control (5% SDS) and incubated at 37 C for 60 minutes. Following the 60 minute exposure period, tissues were rinsed with PBS, blotted to remove the test substance and dry the tissue and transferred to fresh medium. The rinsed tissues were then incubated for 24 hours, rinsed again and incubated for an additional 18 hours in fresh medium. At the end of the incubation period, each tissue was rinsed with PBS and transferred to a 24 -well plate containing 300 uL of MTT solution (1 mg/mL in DMEM). The tissues were incubated for 3 hours with MTT. Following MTT incubation, each tissue was rinsed with PBS and treated with 2.0 mL of extracant solution (isopropanol) for at least two hours with shaking. Two aliquots per tissue of the extracted MTT formazan were measured at 540 nm to determine viability when compared to control values. Tissues exposed to the test article for 60 minutes had a tissue viability of 103.1% with negative controls having 100% viability and positive controls having 2.3% viability. Based on the results of the study (103.1% tissue viability) the test article is not irritating in the EpiDerm skin irritation model.
