REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
-Volume and number of washing steps: The tissues were washed by filling and emptying the inserts 15 times with DPBS using a constant stream in about 1.5 cm distance from the tissue surface, staggered again in e.g. one-minute intervals. Subsequently, the inserts were completely submerged three times in 150 mL DPBS and shaken to remove rests of the test item. Finally, the inserts were rinsed once from the inside and the outside with sterile DPBS. Excess DPBS was removed by blotting the bottom with blotting paper.

- Reproducibility: In accordance to the test guideline the assay is considered to be of sufficient reproducibility if the
- mean absolute OD 570 nm of the three negative control tissues is ≥ 0.8 and ≤ 2.8
- mean relative tissue viability of the three positive control tissues is ≤ 20%
- standard deviation (SD) of relative tissue viability obtained from each three concurrently tested tissues is ≤ 18%.
The respective results and historical control data are shown in table 1.
NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES: 3
CONTROL TISSUES USED IN CASE OF MTT DIRECT INTERFERENCE
- Fresh tissues / killed tissues : Fresh and killed tissues were used for determination of non-specific MTT-reduction capability, fresh tissue was used to determine the colouring potential of the test substance and killed tissue was used if the substance acts as non-specific MTT reducer and shows non-specific colouring in order to avoid a possible double correction.
- N. of replicates : 2
- Method of calculation used: To check the non-specific MTT-reducing capability of the test the non-specific reduction of MTT (NSMTT) was determined by using killed tissues. For quantitative correction of results, two killed tissues were treated with 25 mg of the test item (KT) and two killed tissues were left untreated as a control (KU), respectively. NSMTT was then calculated relative to the negative control of living tissues (NK) according to the following formula:
NSMTT [%] = [(OD KT - OD KU )/OD NK ] * 100
If the test item is classified as non-irritant and if non-specific MTT reduction is ≤ 30% relative to the negative control of living epidermis, the true MTT metabolic conversion (TODTT ) of the test item treated living tissues TM was corrected according to the following formula:
TODTT = OD TM – (OD KT – OD KU )
If non-specific MTT reduction is > 30% relative to the negative control of living epidermis, the test item is considered as incompatible with the test method.
To check the colouring potential of the test item 25 mg of the test item were mixed per 300 µL aqua dest. and per 300 µL isopropanol each in a transparent recipient and incubated at 37 ± 1°C for 60 min. If the test item is classified as non-irritant and colouring is detected by unaided eye-assessment, and the chemical in water and/or isopropanol absorbs light in the range of 570 ± 30 nm, the test item was checked for its tissue-colouring potential. For quantitative correction of results, the test was performed using two additional living tissues treated with 25 mg of the test item (TVT). The MTT-staining was performed with the test item treated with tissues, which were incubated in medium without MTT. The non-specific colour of additional viable tissues (NSC living ) was then calculated according to the following formula:
NSC living [%] = [OD TVT /OD NK ]*100
If NSC living is ≤ 5% relative to the negative control of living epidermis, no correction of the results is
necessary.
If NSC living is > 5% and ≤ 30% relative to the negative control of living epidermis, the true MTT
metabolic conversion (TOD TT ) was corrected according to the following formula:
TOD TT = OD TM – OD TVT
If NSC living is > 30% relative to the negative control of living epidermis, the test item is considered as incompatible with the test method. For test items which are classified as non-irritant and which act as non-specific MTT-reducers and show non-specific colouring of living tissues, a third control for non-specific colour in killed tissues (NSC killed ) was performed to avoid a possible double-correction for colour interference. Therefore, two killed tissues were treated with 25 mg of the test item (TKT). The MTT-staining was performed with the test item treated with tissues, which was incubated in medium without MTT. The non-specific colour of additional viable tissues (NSC killed ) was then calculated according to the following formula:
NSC killed [%] = [OD TKT /OD NK ]*100
The true tissue viability was then calculated as the percent tissue viability obtained with living tissues minus NSMTT minus NSC living plus NSC killed.
If the coloured test material or MTT reducing substance is classified as “irritant” i.e. mean tissue viability is < 50%, the correction procedures are not necessary.

- Positive controls validity:

- Remarks on result:
- no indication of irritation
- Other effects / acceptance of results:
- - OTHER EFFECTS:
- Visible damage on test system: no
- Direct-MTT reduction: The mixture of 25 mg test item per 1 mL MTT medium showed no reduction of MTT compared to the solvent. The mixture did not turn blue/purple. Therefore, NSMTT equalled 0%.
- Colour interference with MTT: The mixture of 25 mg of the test item per 300 μl aqua dest. showed colouring detectable by unaided eye-assessment. Therefore, the absorption of the chemical in water was measured in the range of 570 ± 30 nm.
The test item in water absorbed light in the relevant range. For quantitative correction of results, the non-specific colour of additional viable tissues (NSCliving) was determined by using additional viable tissues without MTT-staining and calculated according to the following formula:
NSCliving [%] = [ODTVT/ODNK]*100 = 0.25%
NSCliving was ≤ 5% relative to the negative control of living epidermis, therefore no correction of the results was necessary.
ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
Acceptance criteria: The test is is considered to be valid if
- mean absolute OD 570 nm of the three negative control tissues is ≥ 0.8 and ≤ 2.8
- mean relative tissue viability of the three positive control tissues is ≤ 20%
- standard deviation (SD) of relative tissue viability obtained from each three concurrently tested tissues is ≤ 18%.
