Controls:

yes, concurrent positive control

yes, concurrent negative control

Amount / concentration applied:

0.75 ml of test article, ethanol, or MEM solution was applied to the epithelium of each of the three test article corneas

Duration of treatment / exposure:

10 (±1) minutes

Duration of post- treatment incubation (in vitro):

All corneas were incubated at 32 (±1)°C for an additional two hours at which time the MEM solution in the
anterior and posterior chambers was removed and the holders refilled with fresh MEM solution

Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

3

Details on study design:

Following the pretest observations, the MEM solution was removed from the anterior chamber. A volume of
0.75 ml of test article, ethanol, or MEM solution was applied to the epithelium of each of the three test
article corneas, three positive control corneas and three negative control corneas in a manner which
ensured that the entire cornea was covered. Test article corneas were dosed via the open-chamber
method. The negative and positive controls were dosed via the closed-chamber method.
All holders and corneas were placed in a horizontal position (anterior chamber facing upward) in the
32 (±1)°C water-jacketed incubator (VWR, model: 1815 TC). After 10 (±1) minutes), the test article,
ethanol, or MEM was removed from the epithelium of the cornea and anterior chamber of the holder by
washing with MEM solution containing phenol red. A final rinse was made with MEM without phenol red.
The anterior and posterior chambers of the holders were then refilled with fresh MEM solution. Opacity
measurements were made following the 10-minute exposure and MEM solution refill.
All corneas were incubated at 32 (±1)°C for an additional two hours at which time the MEM solution in the
anterior and posterior chambers was removed and the holders refilled with fresh MEM solution. A
measurement of opacity was taken with each treated cornea compared to the blank supplied wit h the
OP-KIT. This reading was used in the final IVIS calculations.
Immediately following the two-hour opacity measurement, the MEM solution was removed from the
anterior chamber and replaced with 1.0 ml of 0.4% sodium fluorescein solution in Dulbecco's phosphatebuffered
saline (PBS). Each holder was then returned to the 32 (±1)°C incubator in a horizontal position
(anterior chamber facing upward) ensuring contact of the fluorescein with the cornea.
The Spectronic 20-D Colorimeter Spectrophotometer (Milton/Roy, model: 333175) was calibrated prior to
use on the same day of dosing. Calibration entailed first adjusting the wavelength to 490nm and the
transmittance to 0.0%. The transmittance for a sample of fresh distilled water (in a cuvette, inserted into
the sample compartment) was adjusted to 100.0% on the spectrophotometer. The mode was then
switched to absborance before collecting optical density study data. After 90 (±5) minutes, the fluid from
the posterior chamber of each corneal holder was removed and the amount of dye that passed through
the cornea (permeability) was measured as the optical density at 490nm (i.e., the OD490nm) by a
spectrophotometry.
