- Executive summary:
The purpose of this test is to evaluate the corrosivity potential of ETPPAAc using the EpiDerm™ Human Skin Model after treatment periods of 3 and 60 minutes.
Corrosion is directly related to cytotoxicity in the EpiDerm™ tissue. Cytotoxicity is determined by the reduction of MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) to formazan by viable cells in the test item treated tissues relative to the corresponding negative control. The results are used to make a prediction of the corrosivity potential of the test item.
Duplicate tissues were treated with the test item for exposure periods of 3 and 60 minutes. Negative and positive control groups were treated for each exposure period. At the end of the exposure period the test item was rinsed from each tissue before each tissue was taken for MTTloading. After MTT loading each tissue was placed in 2 mL Isopropanol for MTT extraction.
At the end of the formazan extraction period each well was mixed thoroughly and triplicate 200 [Symbol]L samples were transferred to the appropriate wells of a pre-labeled 96well plate. The optical density (OD) was measured at 570 nm (OD570).
Data are presented in the form of percentage viability (MTT reduction in the test item treated tissues relative to negative control tissues).

- Executive summary:
The purpose of this test was to evaluate the skin irritation potential of ETPPAAc using the EPISKINTMreconstructed human epidermis model after a treatment period of 15 minutes followed by a post‑exposure incubation period of 42 hours. The principle of the assay was based on the measurement of cytotoxicity in reconstructed human epidermal cultures following topical exposure to the test item by means of the colorimetric MTT reduction assay. Cell viability is measured by enzymatic reduction of the yellow MTT tetrazolium salt (3‑[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) to a blue/purple formazan salt (within the mitochondria of viable cells) in the test item treated tissues relative to the negative controls.
Triplicate tissues were treated with the test item for an exposure period of 15 minutes. At the end of the exposure period each tissue was rinsed before incubating for 42 hours. At the end of the post‑exposure incubation period each tissue was taken for MTT-loading. The maintenance medium from beneath each tissue was transferred to pre‑labeled micro tubes and stored in a freezer for possible inflammatory mediator determination. After MTT-loading a total biopsy of each epidermis was made and placed into micro tubes containing acidified isopropanol for extraction of formazan crystals out of the MTT‑loaded tissues.
At the end of the formazan extraction period each tube was mixed thoroughly and duplicate 200 µL samples were transferred to the appropriate wells of a pre‑labeled 96‑well plate. The optical density was measured at 570 nm.
Data are presented in the form of percentage viability (MTT reduction in the test item treated tissues relative to negative control tissues).
The relative mean viability of the test item treated tissues was100.6% after the 15‑Minute exposure period and 42‑Hours post‑exposure incubation period.
The quality criteria required for acceptance of results in the test were satisfied.
The test item was classified as non-irritant.

- SOURCE OF COLLECTED EYES
Eyes from adult cattle (typically 12 to 60 months old) were obtained from a local abattoir as a by-product from freshly slaughtered animals. The eyes were excised by an abattoir employee after slaughter, and were placed in Hanks’ Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) supplemented with antibiotics (penicillin at 100 IU/mL and streptomycin at 100 µg/mL). They were transported to the test facility over ice packs on the same day of slaughter. The corneas were refrigerated on arrival and used within 24 hours of receipt. - Vehicle:

- SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF CORNEAS
All eyes were macroscopically examined before and after dissection. Only corneas free of damage were used.
The cornea from each selected eye was removed leaving a 2 to 3 mm rim of sclera to facilitate handling. The iris and lens were peeled away from the cornea. The isolated corneas were immersed in a dish containing HBSS until they were mounted in Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) holders.
The anterior and posterior chambers of each BCOP holder were filled with complete Eagle’s Minimum Essential Medium (EMEM) without phenol red and plugged. The holders were incubated at 32 ± 1 ºC for 60 minutes. At the end of the incubation period each cornea was examined for defects. Only corneas free of damage were used.
A pre treatment opacity reading was taken for each cornea using a calibrated opacitometer. The average opacity for all corneas was calculated.
Three corneas were randomly allocated to the negative control. Three corneas were also allocated to the test item and three corneas to the positive control item.

- Acceptance criteria met for positive control: The positive control In Vitro Irritancy Score was within the range of 65.1 to 123.3. The positive control acceptance criterion was therefore satisfied. - Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- in this study ETPPAAc caused irreversible effects to the eye.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this test was to identify test items that can induce serious eye damage and to identify test items not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage. The Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) test method is an organotypic model that provides short‑term maintenance of normal physiological and biochemical function of the bovine cornea in vitro. In this test method, damage by the test item ETPPAAc is assessed by quantitative measurements of changes in corneal opacity and permeability.
The test method can correctly identify test items (both chemicals and mixtures) inducing serious eye damage as well as those not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage, as defined by the United Nations (UN) Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Items (GHS) and EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) of chemicals (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), and it was therefore endorsed as scientifically valid for both purposes. Test items inducing serious eye damage are classified as UN GHS and EU CLP Category 1. Items not classified for eye irritation or serious eye damage are defined as those that do not meet the requirements for classification as UN GHS/EU CLP Category 1 or 2 (2A or 2B), i.e. they are referred to as UN GHS/EU CLP No Category.
The test item was applied at a concentration of 20% w/v in sodium chloride 0.9% w/v for 240 minutes. Negative and positive control items were tested concurrently. The two endpoints, decreased light transmission through the cornea (opacity) and increased passage of sodium fluorescein dye through the cornea (permeability) were combined in an empirically derived formula to generate an In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS).
The In Vitro irritancy scores are summarized as follows:

Additional information
Skin corrosion
The purpose of this test is to evaluate the corrosivity potential of ETPPAAc using the EpiDerm™ Human Skin Model after treatment periods of 3 and 60 minutes.
Corrosion is directly related to cytotoxicity in the EpiDerm™ tissue. Cytotoxicity is determined by the reduction of MTT (3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) to formazan by viable cells in the test item treated tissues relative to the corresponding negative control. The results are used to make a prediction of the corrosivity potential of the test item.
Duplicate tissues were treated with the test item for exposure periods of 3 and 60 minutes. Negative and positive control groups were treated for each exposure period. At the end of the exposure period the test item was rinsed from each tissue before each tissue was taken for MTTloading. After MTT loading each tissue was placed in 2 mL Isopropanol for MTT extraction.
At the end of the formazan extraction period each well was mixed thoroughly and triplicate 200 [Symbol]L samples were transferred to the appropriate wells of a pre-labeled 96well plate. The optical density (OD) was measured at 570 nm (OD570).
Data are presented in the form of percentage viability (MTT reduction in the test item treated tissues relative to negative control tissues).
The relative mean viabilities for each treatment group were 71.0% (test item) and 4.7% (positive control) for the 3 minute exposure and 21.9% (test item) and 4.1% (positive control) for the 60 minute exposure. The mean viability of the negative control tissues is set at 100%
The quality criteria required for acceptance of results in the test were satisfied.
The test item was considered to be non-corrosive to the skin.
Skin irritation
The purpose of this test was to evaluate the skin irritation potential of ETPPAAc using the EPISKINTM reconstructed human epidermis model after a treatment period of 15 minutes followed by a post‑exposure incubation period of 42 hours. The principle of the assay was based on the measurement of cytotoxicity in reconstructed human epidermal cultures following topical exposure to the test item by means of the colorimetric MTT reduction assay. Cell viability is measured by enzymatic reduction of the yellow MTT tetrazolium salt (3‑[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide) to a blue/purple formazan salt (within the mitochondria of viable cells) in the test item treated tissues relative to the negative controls.
Triplicate tissues were treated with the test item for an exposure period of 15 minutes. At the end of the exposure period each tissue was rinsed before incubating for 42 hours. At the end of the post‑exposure incubation period each tissue was taken for MTT-loading. The maintenance medium from beneath each tissue was transferred to pre‑labeled micro tubes and stored in a freezer for possible inflammatory mediator determination. After MTT-loading a total biopsy of each epidermis was made and placed into micro tubes containing acidified isopropanol for extraction of formazan crystals out of the MTT‑loaded tissues.
At the end of the formazan extraction period each tube was mixed thoroughly and duplicate 200 µL samples were transferred to the appropriate wells of a pre‑labeled 96‑well plate. The optical density was measured at 570 nm.
Data are presented in the form of percentage viability (MTT reduction in the test item treated tissues relative to negative control tissues).
The relative mean viability of the test item treated tissues was100.6% after the 15‑Minute exposure period and 42‑Hours post‑exposure incubation period.
The quality criteria required for acceptance of results in the test were satisfied.
The test item was classified as non-irritant.
Eye irritation
The purpose of this test was to identify test items that can induce serious eye damage and to identify test items not requiring classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage. The Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) test method is an organotypic model that provides short‑term maintenance of normal physiological and biochemical function of the bovine corneain vitro. In this test method, damage by the test item is assessed by quantitative measurements of changes in corneal opacity and permeability.
The test item ETPPAAc was applied at a concentration of 20% w/v in sodium chloride 0.9% w/v for 240 minutes. Negative and positive control items were tested concurrently. The two endpoints, decreased light transmission through the cornea (opacity) and increased passage of sodium fluorescein dye through the cornea (permeability) were combined in an empirically derived formula to generate an In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS).
The In Vitro irritancy scores were 79.1 (test item), 1.2 (negative control) and 108.0 (positive control). The test item is classified as Category 1 (UN GHS or EU CLP Causes serious eye damage).
Justification for classification or non-classification
Skin irritation
Based on the available data, the test substance ethyltriphenyl phosphonium acetate does not need to be classified for skin irritation/corrosion according to regulation (EC) 1272/2008.
Eye irritation
Based on the available data, the test substance ethyltriphenyl phosphonium acetate has to be classified for eye irritation according to regulation (EC) 1272/2008 as Category 1 and should be labelled with H318 "Causes serious eye damage" .
