In vitro test system

Test system:

human skin model

Source species:

human

Cell type:

non-transformed keratinocytes

Cell source:

other: Commercial model

Justification for test system used:

Standard model; commerically available

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Details on test system:

EpiDerm Skin Model (EPI-200, Lot no.: 26767).
The model consists of normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes which have been cultured to form a multilayered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis. It consists of organized basal, spinous and granular layers, and a multi-layered stratum corneum containing intercellular lamellar lipid layers arranged in patterns analogous to those found in vivo. The EpiDerm tissues (surface 0.6 cm²) were cultured on polycarbonate membranes of 10 mm cell culture inserts.

Control samples:

yes, concurrent negative control

yes, concurrent positive control

Amount/concentration applied:

50 µL

Duration of treatment / exposure:

Three minutes, 1 hour

Duration of post-treatment incubation (if applicable):

3 hours

Number of replicates:

Four

Other effects / acceptance of results:

The test item was checked for colour interference in aqueous conditions and possible direct MTT reduction by adding the test item to MTT medium. Because the solutions did not turn blue / purple nor a blue / purple precipitate was observed it was concluded that the test item did not interfere with the MTT endpoint.

The relative mean tissue viability obtained after the 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with the test item compared to the negative control tissues was 91% and 39% respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for the test item was not below 50% after 3 minutes treatment and not below 15% after 1 hour treatment the test item is considered to be not corrosive. 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 6.4%. In the range of 20 - 100% viability the Coefficient of Variation between tissue replicates was <=6% for the negative control, indicating that the test system functioned properly.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

Reaction product of 2,3-epoxypropyl neodecanoate and benzenesulfonic acid, C10-13-sec-alkyl derivatives is not corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test under the experimental conditions.

Executive summary:

The study was performed to evaluate [reaction product of 2,3-epoxypropyl neodecanoate and benzenesulfonic acid, C10-13-sec-alkyl derivatives] for its ability to induce skin corrosion on a human three dimensional epidermal model (EpiDerm (EPI-200)). The possible corrosive potential of the test item was tested through topical application for 3 minutes and 1 hour. The study procedures described in this report were based on the most recent OECD and EC guidelines. The test item was applied undiluted (50 μL) directly on top of the skin tissue. The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with the test item compared to the negative control tissues was 91% and 39%, respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for the test item was not below 50% after the 3-minute treatment and not below 15% after the 1-hour treatment, the test item is considered to be not corrosive. In conclusion, [reaction product of 2,3-epoxypropyl neodecanoate and benzenesulfonic acid, C10 -13 -sec-alkyl derivatives] is not corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test under the experimental conditions.
