Test material

Constituent 1
Chemical structure
Reference substance name:
Reaction mass of L-alanyl-L-tyrosine hydrochloride and potassium chloride
EC Number:
949-344-1
Molecular formula:
C12H16N2O4.ClH and KCl
IUPAC Name:

In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
human
Cell type:
non-transformed keratinocytes
Cell source:
other: All cells used were purchased or derived from tissue obtained by MatTek Corporation from accredited institutions.
Source strain:
other: Keratinocyte Strain 267S3A
Justification for test system used:
This test uses the EpiDerm™ reconstructed human epidermis model (MatTek) which consists of normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEK) and therefore represents in vitro the target organ of the species of interest and closely mimics the biochemical and physiological properties of the upper parts of the human skin, i.e. the epidermis.
Vehicle:

Control samples:
yes, concurrent negative control
yes, concurrent positive control
Amount/concentration applied:
25 mg
Duration of treatment / exposure:
60 ± 1 min
Duration of post-treatment incubation (if applicable):
42 h
Number of replicates:
6 (2 experiments with each 3 replicates)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (corrosive) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
In this study under the given conditions the test item showed irritant effects. The test item is therefore classified as “skin irritant” in accordance with UN GHS “Category 2”. However, as no follow-up studies regarding the endpoint "skin corrosion" were performed, the test item is concluded as " skin corrosive" in accordance with UN GHS “Category 1”.
