SD = standard deviation calculated from individual % tissue viabilities

viability (%) = viability of single tissues compared with negative control, mean NC viability is defined as 100

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the above-described experimental design, average viability of tissues treated by the test substance was 84.3 % of negative control average value, i.e. viability was > 50 %.
Executive summary:

The effect of the test substance was negative in EpiDermTM model.

According to the classification criteria given in chapter 3.9. of this report, the test substance is considered to have no category in regard to skin irritation.
