Direct MTT Reduction

The MTT solution containing the test item did not turn blue/purple. This was taken to indicate the test item did not reduce MTT.

Assessment of Color Interference with the MTT endpoint

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

Test Item, Positive Control Item and Negative Control Item

The relative mean viabilities for each treatment group were as follows:

Exposure Period

Percentage Viability

Negative Control

Positive Control

108.5

60 minute

*The mean viability of the negative control tissues is set at 100%

Quality Criteria

The mean OD570for the negative control treated tissues was 1.393 for the 3‑Minute exposure period and 1.590 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 4.5% 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.
