- Indication of controls used for direct MTT-reducers and/or colouring test chemicals
Test item developed colour when dissolved in distilled water and isopropanol. Post incubation optical density of samples were measured at 570 nm and the OD readings were >0.08. Test item was considered as possibly interacting with the MTT measurement and an additional test on colorant controls was performed to determine the amount of color bound to and extracted from the tissues. For this purpose the colored test item is applied to two additional tissues, the colorant controls (CC).
The test item was pre checked for direct MTT reduction in quantitative MTT estimation. Post incubation, the test item with MTT formed black color. As there was color change, test item was considered as reducer of MTT.
As test item reduced MTT, a functional check using freeze-killed tissue controls (killed controls = KC) was performed in one definitive assay to evaluate whether the test item is not binding to the tissue and leading to a false MTT reduction signal.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: UN GHS Category 1 or Category 2
- Conclusions:
- Based on the results obtained in an in vitro eye irritation assay according to OECD guideline 492, the test item is categorised as irritant (UN GHS Category 1 or Category 2) as the mean percentage tissue viability is less than 60 % of the negative control.
- Executive summary:
The eye irritating potential of the test item was determined in an in vitro eye irritation assay (RhCE) according to OECD guideline 492. Two replicates of EpiOcular™ tissues were treated with test item (50 mg) , positive control (methyl acetate, 50 µL) or negative control (sterile deionized water, 50 µL), respectively and incubated for 6 hours (± 15 min) at standard culture conditions (37 °C in an incubator with 5 % CO2, 90±10 % humidified atmosphere).
Exposure of test material was terminated by rinsing with Ca++Mg++Free-DPBS solution. After rinsing, the tissues were incubated for a 30 minutes immersion incubation (Post-Soak) at room temperature. At the end of the Post-Soak immersion test item treated tissues were incubated for 18 hours ± 15 minutes at standard culture conditions (Post-treatment Incubation). The viability of each tissue was assessed by incubating the tissues for 3 hours with MTT solution at 37 °C. The precipitated formazan was then extracted using isopropanol and quantified spectrophotometrically (570 nm).
The test item has an intrinsic colour (dark black), therefore, two additional test item treated tissues were used for the non-specific OD evaluation. The test item is a possible MTT-reducer, therefore additional controls (test item treated killed tissues and negative control treated killed tissues) were used to detect and correct for test substance interference with the viability measurement. Since the test item is a possible MTT-reducer and has an intrinsic colour (dark black) a third control for non-specific colour in killed tissues (NSCkilled) was performed. Two killed treated tissues were used to avoid a possible double correction for colour interference.
The test item induced significantly reduced cell viability in comparison to the negative control (mean relative viability: -2.75 %). Positive and negative controls showed the expected cell viability values within acceptable limits. The experiment was considered to be valid.
The results obtained from this in vitro eye irritation test, using the EpiOcular™ model, indicated that the test item has an eye irritation potential under the applied testing conditions. According to the current OECD Guideline No. 492, the test item is considered as irritating to the eye (UN GHS Category 2 or 1). For a reliable assessment, further in vitro testing is necessary for a final classification.
