Test animals

Species:
other: MatTek In Vitro Life Science Laboratories, Bratislava, Slovakia containing: 24 Epi-200 tissues (reconstructed epidermis): surface 0.6 cm² cultured in Millicells® 1 cm
Strain:
other: not applicable
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
The EpiDermTM model consists of normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes which have been cultured to form a multi layered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis. It consists of organized basal, spinous and granular layers, and a multi-layered stratum corneum containing intercellular lamellar lipid layers arranged in patterns analogous to those found in vivo. The EpiDermTM tissues (surface 0.6 cm²) are cultured on specially prepared cell culture inserts and commercially available as kits (EpiDerm™ 200), containing 24 tissues on shipping agarose.

Controls:
other: No control animals because Human skin model. Negative and positive control were used in this test.
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount applied: 25 µL
Duration of treatment / exposure:
1 hour
Observation period:
not applicable
Number of animals:
The irritation test was performed with three tissue samples
Details on study design:
Treatment
Time: 60 min
Incubator: Within this period the 6-well plates were put into the incubator at 37 °C.
Rinsing: After the end of the treatment interval the inserts were removed with PBS (Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline)

MTT Assay
A volume of 300 µL of the MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) solution was added to each well after the post-incubation period and the tissues were incubated.
Incubation period: 3 hours
Time: After the 3 hours incubation period was completed for all tissues and exposure groups, culture inserts were transferred from the holding plates to the MTT plates.
Rinsing: After 3 h incubation, wells were washed with PBS.
Extractant solution: Isopropanol

OD reading: SunriseTM Absorbance Reader, For the determination of the optical density of colored extracts. Measurement using a filter wavelength 570 nm without reference filter.

In vivo

Irritant / corrosive response data:
In tissues that have been treated with the test substance, a yellow discoloration was noticed after the washing procedure. Due to the ability of the test substance to reduce MTT directly, KC tissues were applied in parallel. The results of the KC tissues indicate an increased MTT reduction (mean viability 4.4 % of NC). Thus for the test substance the final mean viability is given after KC correction. The results of the KC tissues showed high inter-tissue variability. However, taking the highest single value of the test-substance treated KC tissues into account (tissue 2 KC: 12.5% of NC) the final result still corresponds to a viability value well above the cut off for skin irritation (about 82%), thus this deviation is not considered to adversely affect the outcome of this study.
