Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: non corrosive
Executive summary:

The experiment was carried out on a reconstructed human epidermis EST-1000 (CellSystems, St. Katharinen, Germany) for detection of topically applied skin corrosives with the test item 1,8-naphthylenediamine (Deltamin).

Corrosive skin effects of substances are defined as irreversible damage of skin; namely, visible necrosis through the epidermis and into the dermis, following the application of a test substance for up to four hours. In vivo corrosive reactions are typified by ulcers, bleeding, and bloody scabs.

A 100% concentration was tested on the skin/epidermal equivalents in triplets. For the determination of time related cytotoxic effects the incubation periods were 3 min. and 60 min., respectively. By this the study, was conducted in accordance with the OECD 431 guideline as well as with an EC guideline (amending Council Directive 67/548/EEC, B.40 Skin corrosion) using the test item concentrations and incubation periods recommended there. These tests are also related to the revised OECD 404 guideline "Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion".

To check the reliability of this test procedure a blinded positive/negative control study is conducted at regular intervals in the lab. This reliability check is always performed by two technicians, two laboratories in parallel using the same batches of the control test items.

The test item was applied at a 100% concentration, i.e. 50 µg per insert.

The MTT (Methylthiazoletetrazolium) method has determined the following values of viability after 3 min. or after 60 min. of incubation: 107% and 50% (rounded), respectively. Thus, the results show that no corrosive property of the test item was determined by the assay used.
