Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Corrositex® is an in vitro assay used to determine the skin corrosion potential of a test substance. The assay is based on the ability of a corrosive test substance to pass through a biobarrier membrane and to cause a colour change in the liquid Chemical Detection System (CDS).
GLP compliance:
no

Remarks on result:
other:
Remarks:
Basis: mean. Time point: 1 hour. Remarks: mean breakthrough time > 1 hour; classified as non-corrosive. (migrated information)

Any other information on results incl. tables

The positive control, sulphuric acid, had a membrane breakthrough time of 1 minute. The negative control, citric acid, did not breakthrough in 1 hour. The positive control and negative control performed as anticipated. No breakthrough occurred in the 4 test substance membranes during the 1 hour treatment time indicating that the test substance was not corrosive.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: non-corrosive
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
This study and the conclusions which are drawn from it fulfil the quality criteria (validity, reliability, repeatability).
The test substance is non-corrosive.
Executive summary:

The test substance was evaluated for skin corrosion potential using the In Vitro International Corrositex® assay. Corrositex® is a standardized and quantitative in vitro corrosivity test. The model is based on the time required for the test substance to pass through a biobarrier membrane and produce a change in a chemical detection system. Approximately 500 mg of the test substance was applied to each of 4 membrane discs. The test substance did not pass through any of the membranes. Under the conditions of this test, the test substance is non-corrosive.
