WAS THE TIMESCALE CATEGORY TEST PERFORMED: yes. The categorisation screen was used to choose the appropriate scoring scale. As the test item has a strong colour itself, the test item colour covered the colour change in the test tubes. Therefore, a dilution of 10% of the test item in demin. water was prepared and the pH value was determined. A pH value of 8 was determined.
Based on the pH value, 150 µL of the 10% test item solution were added in test tube B and the content was mixed. Then the pH value was measured again; the value was pH 6.
Because this value was ≤ 9, the test item was classified as category 2. Since the test item was classified as a category 2 substance, the vials had to be observed for 60 minutes (test item of category 2).
METHOD OF DETECTION
The evaluation was performed visually: break-through causes a change in the colour of the solution; the stop watch was operated accordingly.
METHOD OF APPLICATION: pipetting
NUMBER OF REPLICATES: 4
PREDICTION MODEL / DECISION CRITERIA (choose relevant statement)
- The test substance is considered to be corrosive to skin if ≤ 60 min elapsed between application of the test substance to the membrane barrier and barrier penetration.
- The test substance is considered to be non-corrosive to skin if > 60 min elapsed between application of the test substance to the membrane barrier and barrier penetration.
- Justification for the selection of the cut-off point(s): prediction model for Category 2 test chemicals (test chemicals with high acid/alkaline reserve) according to OECD TG 435 - Control samples:

DEMONSTRATION OF TECHNICAL PROFICIENCY: The demonstration of proficiency was performed using proficiency chemicals under non-GLP conditions, but within the GLP-environment at LAUS GmbH. All of the listed proficiency chemicals except one met the right classification according to OECD 435. Selenic acid gave discrepant classification compared to the OECD guideline 435. This result can be seen as outlier and therefore as uncritical.
ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
- Acceptance criteria met for negative control: yes, negative control showed a clear negative result; no break-through of the negative control within 60 minutes
- Acceptance criteria met for positive control: the break-through time of the positive control falls within ± 2 standard deviations of the current historical mean value
- Acceptance criteria met for variability between replicate measurements: No break-through of the test item was observed in any replicate. - Interpretation of results:
- other: Category 2 (irritant) based on EU GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- In conclusion, it can be stated that in this study and under the experimental conditions reported, the test item possesses no skin corrosion potential and is considered as a non-corrosive substance. Therefore, Zinc-EDDHA sodium salts is considered as non-corrosive to skin in the Corrositex® - Test. The test item is therefore not to be classified for corrosivity to skin according to GHS. The negative control showed no break-through and therefore no corrosive effects. The measured time of the positive control was 12 minutes and thus ensuring the validity of the test system. For these reasons, the result of the test is considered valid.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed according to OECD Guideline 435 under GLP compliance using Corrositex® kit. A blank and 10% citric acid solution served as negative control and sodium hydroxide was the positive control. The test item was applied as a solid (fine powder). As the test item was classified as a category 2 substance, the test item vials were observed for 60 minutes. No break-through of the test item was observed within 61 minutes. Thus, it can be stated that in this study and under the experimental conditions reported, the test item possesses no skin corrosion potential and is considered as a non-corrosive substance. The negative control showed no break-through and therefore no corrosive effects. The measured time of the positive control was 12 minutes and thus ensuring the validity of the test system. For these reasons, the result of the test is considered valid.
Therefore, Zinc-EDDHA sodium salts is considered as non-corrosive to skin in the Corrositex® - Test. The test item is therefore not classified for corrosivity to skin according to GHS.

TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
Tissues were dosed in 1-minute-intervals. After dosing the last tissue, all plates were transferred into the incubator for 35 minutes at 37 ± 1°C and 5.0 ± 1% CO2 and ≥ 95% rel-ative humidity.
REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
1 hour after the first application, the inserts were removed from the plates using sterile forceps and rinsed immediately in 1-minute-intervals.
After rinsing thoroughly with DPBS, each tissue was blotted with sterile cellulose tissue and then transferred into a new 6-well-plate with fresh assay medium (0.9 mL). The surface of the inserts was then carefully dried with a sterile cotton tipped swab.
Then, the tissues were set in the incubator for 24 hours at 37 ± 1°C and 5.0 ± 1% CO2 and ≥ 95% relative humidity.
After post-incubation, the tissues were removed from the incubator and shaken for 5 minutes (120 rpm). 0.9 mL assay medium were filled in the lower row of the 6-well-plate. Then the inserts were transferred into the lower row of the 6-well-plate and set into the incubator for 18 hours and 30 minutes for post-incubation at 37 ± 1°C and 5.0 ± 1% CO2 and ≥ 95% relative humidity.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (irritant) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The test item Zinc-EDDHA sodium salts is considered as at least irritant to skin. After the treatment, the mean value of relative tissue viability was reduced to 32.6. This value is below the threshold for skin irritation (50%). The optical density of the negative control was well within the required acceptability criterion of 0.8 ≤ mean OD ≤ 2.8. The positive control has met the acceptance criterion too, for thus ensuring the validity of the test system. The variation within replicates was within the accepted range for negative control, positive control and test item (required: ≤ 18%). For these reasons, the result of the test is considered valid.
- Executive summary:
One valid experiment was performed according to OECD Guideline 439 following GLP with three tissues and two independent MTT measurements.Three tissues of the human skin model EpiDermTM were treated with the test item for 60 minutes. The test item was applied directly to each tissue and spread to match the tissue size (0.63 cm2; as indicated by the supplier). DPBS-buffer was used as negative control and 5% SDS solution was used as positive control. After treatment with the negative control, the mean absorbance value was within the required acceptability criterion of 0.8 ≤ mean OD ≤ 2.8, OD was 1.653. The positive control showed clear irritating effects. The mean value of relative tissue viability was reduced to 2.8% (required: ≤ 20%). The variation within the tissue replicates of negative control, positive control and test item was acceptable (required: ≤ 18%). After the treatment with the test item, the mean value of relative tissue viability was reduced to 32.6%. This value is below the threshold for skin irritation potential (50%). Test items that induce values below the threshold of 50% are considered at least irritant to skin. The OECD guideline 439 addresses the human health endpoint skin irritation. Therefore, further testing on skin corrosion potential with another suitable in vitro study (e.g. OECD 431) may be required. Therefore, the test item Zinc-EDDHA sodium salts is considered at least irritant to skin in the Reconstructed human Epidermis (RhE) Test Method.
