Other effects / acceptance of results:
The relative mean tissue viability for the positive control treated tissues was 6.6% relative to the negative control treated tissues and the standard deviation value of the viability was 2.9%. The positive control acceptance criteria were therefore satisfied. The mean OD570 for the negative control treated tissues was 0.807 and the standard deviation value of the viability was 2.5%. The negative control acceptance criteria were therefore satisfied. The standard deviation calculated from individual tissue viabilities of the three identically test substance treated tissues was 1.4%. The test substance acceptance criterion was therefore satisfied.

Results

 

Direct MTT reduction

The MTT solution containing the test substance did not turn blue or purple which indicated that the test substance did not directly reduce MTT.

 

Assessment of color interference with the MTT endpoint

The solution containing the test substance was a very pale green color. This color was attributed to the intrinsic color of the test substance itself. It was therefore unnecessary to run color correction tissues.

 

Test substance, positive control substance and negative control substance

The individual and mean OD570values, standard deviations and tissue viabilities for the test substance, negative control substance and positive control substance are given in table 1. The mean viabilities and standard deviations of the test substance and positive control, relative to the negative control are also given in table 1.

The relative mean viability of the test substance treated tissues was113.6% after a 15‑Minute exposure period and 42‑h post‑exposure incubation period. It was considered unnecessary to perform IL-1aanalysis as the results of the MTT test were unequivocal.

Conclusion

The test substance was classified as non-irritant. The following classification criteria apply:

EU CLP not classified for irritation.

UN GHS not classified for irritation (category 3 cannot be determined).

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified based on EU CLP Criteria
Conclusions:
Under study conditions, the test substance was considered to be non-irritating to the skin.
Executive summary:

An in vitro study was conducted to determine the skin irritation potential of the test substance, 'C18-unsatd and C22-unsatd. AAP EDM-ES' (active: 104%), using EPISKIN TM reconstructed human epidermis model, according to the OECD Guideline 439 and EU Method B46, in compliance with GLP. Triplicate tissues were treated with the test substance (undiluted) for an exposure period of 15 minutes. At the end of the exposure period each tissue was rinsed before incubating for 42 h. 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. Results were presented in the form of percentage viability (MTT reduction in the test substance treated tissues relative to negative control tissues). The relative mean viability of the test substance treated tissues was determined to be 113.6% after the 15 minute exposure period and 42 h post exposure incubation period. The quality criteria required for acceptance of results in the test were satisfied. Under study conditions, the test substance was considered to be non-irritating to the skin (Envigo, 2017).
