- Tissue lot number(s): 27631
- On the day of receipt the tissues were kept on agarose and stored in the refrigerator. On the next day, at least one hour before starting the assay the tissues were transferred to 6-well plates with 0.9 mL DMEM (serum-free; MatTek Corporation).
EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN
- Test for the Interference of the Test Material with the MTT Endpoint: A test material may interfere with the MTT endpoint if it is coloured and/or it is able to directly reduce MTT. The cell viability measurement is affected only if the test material is present on the tissues when the MTT viability test is performed.
- Test for Colour Interference by the Test Material: The test material was checked for possible colour interference before the study was started. Some non-coloured test materials may change into coloured materials in aqueous conditions and thus stain the skin tissues during the 1-hour exposure. To assess the colour interference, at least 25 mg of the test material or 50 µL Milli-Q water as a negative control were added to 0.3 mL Milli-Q water. The mixture was incubated for approximately 1 hour at 37.0 ± 1.0 °C in the dark. At the end of the exposure time the mixture was shaken and it was checked if a blue / purple colour change was observed.
- Test for Reduction of MTT by the Test Material: The test material was checked for possible direct MTT reduction before the study was started. To assess the ability of the test material to reduce MTT, at least 25 mg of the test material or 50 µL Milli-Q water as a negative control were added to 1 mL MTT solution (1 mg/mL) in phosphate buffered saline. The mixture was incubated for approximately 1 hour at 37.0 ± 1.0 °C. At the end of the exposure time it was checked if a blue / purple colour change or a blue / purple precipitate was observed.
- MTT concentrate (5 mg/mL) diluted (1:5) with MTT diluent (supplemented DMEM).
MAIN TEST
- Application/Treatment of the Test Material: The skin tissues were kept in the refrigerator the day they were received. The next day, at least 1 hour before the assay was started the tissues were transferred to 6-well plates containing 0.9 mL DMEM per well. The level of the DMEM was just beneath the tissue. The plates were incubated for approximately 2.5 hours at 37.0 ± 1.0 ºC. The medium was replaced with fresh DMEM just before the test material was applied. The test was performed on a total of 4 tissues per test material together with a negative control and positive control. Two tissues were used for a 3-minute exposure to the test material and two for a 1-hour exposure. The skin was moistened with 25 µL Milli-Q water to ensure close contact of the test material to the tissue and 29.23 to 35.05 mg of the solid test material was on top of the skin tissues.
- For the negative and positive controls, 2 tissues were treated with 50 µL Milli-Q water (negative control) and 2 tissues were treated with 50 µL 8N KOH (positive control) for both the 3-minute and 1-hour time point.
REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
- After the exposure period, the tissues were washed with phosphate buffered saline to remove residual test material. The skin inserts were carefully dried. Rinsed tissues were kept in 24 well plates on 300 µL DMEM until 6 tissues (= one application time) were dosed and rinsed.
ABSORBANCE/ OPTICAL DENSITY MEASUREMENTS
- The DMEM was replaced by 300 µL MTT-medium and tissues were incubated for 3 hours at 37 °C in air containing 5 % CO2. After incubation the tissues were washed with PBS and formazan was extracted with 2 mL isopropanol over night at room temperature. The amount of extracted formazan was determined spectrophotometrically at 570 nm in triplicate with the TECAN Infinite® M200 Pro Plate Reader.
TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: 37 ± 1.0 °C
- Temperature of post-treatment incubation (if applicable): 37 °C with MTT
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- All incubations, with the exception of the test item incubation of 3 minutes at room temperature, were carried out in a controlled environment, in which optimal conditions were a humid atmosphere of 80 - 100 % (actual range 45 - 85 %), containing 5.0 ± 0.5 % CO2 in air in the dark at 37.0 ± 1.0 °C (actual range 36.2 - 37.3 °C). Temperature and humidity were continuously monitored throughout the experiment. The CO2 percentage was monitored once on each working day. Temporary deviations from the temperature, humidity and CO2 percentage may occur due to opening and closing of the incubator door. Based on laboratory historical data these deviations are considered not to affect the study integrity.
INTERPRETATION
A test material is considered corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test if:
- The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute treatment compared to the negative control tissues is decreased below 50 %.
- In addition, a test material considered non-corrosive (viability ≥50 %) after the 3-minute treatment is considered corrosive if the relative tissue viability after 1-hour treatment with the test material is decreased below 15 %.
A test material is considered non corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test if:
- The relative mean tissue viability obtained after the 3-minute treatment compared to the negative control tissues is not decreased below 50 %.
- In addition, the relative tissue viability after the 1-hour treatment is not decreased below 15 %.
ANALYSIS
- Calculation of Cell Viability:
The corrected OD (ODc) for each sample or control was calculated by subtracting the value of the blank mean (ODbl) from each reading (ODraw):
ODc = ODraw – ODbl
The OD value representing 100 % cell viability is the average OD of the negative controls (ODlt_u+MTT).
The %Viability for each sample and positive control is calculated as follows:
%Viability = (ODc/mean ODlt_u+MTT) * 100 - Control samples:
- yes, concurrent negative control
- yes, concurrent positive control
- Amount/concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied: 29.23 to 35.05 mg. No correction was made for the purity/composition of the test material.
NEGATIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied: 50 µL
POSITIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied: 50 µL
- Concentration (if solution): 8 N - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 3 minutes or 60 minutes
- Duration of post-treatment incubation (if applicable):
- Incubated for 3 hours with MTT
- Number of replicates:
- 2 per exposure time

- Other effects / acceptance of results:
- - The test material was checked for colour interference in aqueous conditions and possible direct MTT reduction by adding the test material to MTT medium. Because the solutions did not turn blue / purple nor a blue / purple precipitate was observed it was concluded that the test material did not interfere with the MTT endpoint.
- Skin corrosion is expressed as the remaining cell viability after exposure to the test material. The relative mean tissue viability obtained after the 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with the test material compared to the negative control tissues was 86 and 23 % respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for the test material was not below 50 % after 3 minutes treatment and not below 15 % after 1 hour treatment the test material is considered to be not corrosive. Since the stability of the test was only confirmed up to a temperature of 30 °C, it could be that some substance degraded at the 1 hour exposure.
- The absolute mean OD570 (optical density at 570 nm) of the negative control tissues was within the acceptance limits of OECD 431 (lower acceptance limit ≥0.8 and upper acceptance limit ≤2.8) and the laboratory historical control data range. The mean relative tissue viability following the 1-hour exposure to the positive control was 7.6 %.
- In the range of 20 – 100 % viability the Coefficient of Variation between tissue replicates was 28 % for the negative and positive control. The Coefficient of Variation between tissues replicates treated with the test material was 42 % after the 1-hour exposure. However, the individual tissue viabilities after the 1-hour exposure were 29 and 17%. Both viabilities were >15 % and therefore in the same category, indicating that the test system functioned properly.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not classified in accordance with EU Criteria
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study the test material was not corrosive to the skin.
- Executive summary:
The potential of the test material to cause corrosion to skin was investigated in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 431 and EU Method B.40 bis, under GLP conditions.
The objective of this study was to evaluate the test material for its ability to induce skin corrosion on a human three dimensional epidermal model (EpiDerm (EPI-200)). The possible corrosive potential of the test material was tested through topical application for 3 minutes and 1 hour.
Skin tissue was moistened with 25 µL of Milli-Q water and at least 25 mg of the test material was applied directly on top of the skin tissue.
The positive control had a mean relative tissue viability of 7.6 % after the 1-hour exposure. The absolute mean OD570 (optical density at 570 nm) of the negative control tissues was within the acceptance limits of OECD 431 (lower acceptance limit ≥0.8 and upper acceptance limit≤2.8) and the laboratory historical control data range. In the range of 20 – 100 % viability the Coefficient of Variation between tissue replicates was ≤28 % for the negative and positive control. The Coefficient of Variation between tissues replicates treated with the test item was 42 % after the 1-hour exposure. However, the individual tissue viabilities after the 1-hour exposure were 29 and 17 %. Both viabilities were >15 % and therefore in the same category, indicating that the test system functioned properly.
Skin corrosion is expressed as the remaining cell viability after exposure to the test item. The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with the test material compared to the negative control tissues was 86 and 23%, respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for the test material was not below 50 % after the 3-minute treatment and not below 15 % after the 1-hour treatment the test material is considered to be not corrosive.
Under the conditions of this study the test material was not corrosive to the skin.
