Results

Direct MTT Reduction

An assessment found the test substance was able to directly reduce MTT. Therefore, an additional procedure using freeze killed tissues was performed. The results of the freeze killed tissues were subtracted from the mean OD of the test substance treated viable tissues to obtain the true amount of MTT reduction that reflects metabolic conversion only.

 

Assessment of Color Interference with the MTT endpoint

The solution containing the test substance did not become colored. This was taken to indicate the test substance did not have the potential to cause color interference.

Quality Criteria

The initial test was repeated due to a failure to meet the assay acceptance criteria. The mean OD570 for the negative control treated tissues was 1.497 for the 3‑Minute exposure period and 1.633 for the 60‑Minute exposure period. The negative control acceptance criteria were therefore satisfied. The relative mean tissue viability for the positive control treated tissues was 3.5% relative to the negative control following the 60‑Minute exposure period. The positive control acceptance criterion was therefore satisfied. In the range 20 to 100% viability the Coefficient of Variation between the two tissue replicates of each treatment group did not exceed 30%. The acceptance criterion was therefore satisfied.

 

Conclusion

The test substance was considered to be non-corrosive to the skin.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: non corrosive based on EU CLP criteria
Conclusions:
Under study conditions, the test substance was considered to be non-corrosive to the skin.
Executive summary:

An in vitro study was conducted to determine the corrosivity potential of the test substance, 'C18-unsatd. and C22-unsatd. AAP EDM-ES' (active: 104%), using the EpiDerm™ Human Skin Model, according to the OECD Guideline 431 and EU Method B.40 bis, in compliance with GLP. Duplicate tissues were treated with the 50 µL undiluted test substance and reference substances for exposure periods of 3 and 60 minutes. The test substance was found to directly reduce MTT and therefore additional non-viable tissues were incorporated into the testing for correction purposes. At the end of the exposure period the test substance was rinsed from each tissue before each tissue was taken for MTT‑loading. After MTT loading each tissue was placed in 2 mL Isopropanol for MTT extraction. At the end of the formazan extraction period each well was mixed thoroughly and triplicate 200 µL samples were transferred to the appropriate wells of a pre-labeled 96‑well plate. The optical density (OD) was measured at 570 nm (OD570). Data were presented in the form of percentage viability (MTT reduction in the test substance treated tissues relative to negative control tissues). Percentage viability for the test substance at 3 and 60 minutes were 86.6% and 38.3% respectively. The quality criteria required for acceptance of results in the test were satisfied. Under study conditions, the test substance was considered to be non-corrosive to the skin (Envigo, 2017).
