- - Description of the cell system used, justification of the test method and considerations regarding applicability
The EpiOcular™ OCL-200 tissue construct is a nonkeratinized epithelium prepared from primary human keratinocytes. It was obtained from MatTek In Vitro Life Science Laboratories, Slovak Republic (OCL-200-EIT, Lot no. 30633). It models the cornea epithelium with progressively stratified, but not cornified cells. The ability to expose the tissue topically is essential to model the same kind of progressive injury expected in vivo. It also allows both solid and liquid test substances to be applied directly to the tissue. In this assay, the solid test substance is applied to the surface of the cornea epithelial tissue construct for a fixed period, removed, and the tissue allowed to express the possibly resulting damage. Relative tissue viability is determined against the negative control-treated constructs by the reduction of the vital dye 3-[4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl]-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT). A concurrent positive control is used with each assay. Based on the depth of injury model, the EpiOcular eye irritation test is intended to differentiate those materials that are non-irritants (would not require classification according to GHS) from those that would require labelling as either Eye Irrit. 2 or Eye Dam. 1 according to GHS.
The EpiOcular™ EIT according to OECD TG 492 is applicable to substances and mixtures, and to solids, liquids, semi-solids and waxes. The liquids may be aqueous or non-aqueous; solids may be soluble or insoluble in water. The test substance AF-959 is a solid test material, readily soluble in water (521.04 g/L), and falls within the applicability domain of the OECD TG 492.

- - Details of the test procedure used
The EpiOcular™ EIT consists of a topical exposure of the neat test substance to the human reconstructed cornea model followed by a cell viability test.
First, the tissues were pre-wetted with Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline (DPBS) and incubated at standard culture conditions for 30 ± 2 min. After the 30 ± 2 min DPBS pre-treatment, the negative and positive controls were tested by applying 50 µL, the test substance by applying 50 mg, topically on the EpiOcular™ tissue surface. Two tissues were used per treatment, negative and positive controls each. The tissues were incubated at standard culture conditions for 6 h ± 15 min. At the end of the exposure period, tissues were rinsed with DPBS and transferred to and immersed in assay medium for a 25 ± 2 min immersion incubation (post-soak) at room temperature. At the end of the post-soak incubation, each insert was transferred to fresh assay medium and the tissues were incubated for 18 ± 0.25 h at standard culture conditions (post-treatment incubation).
After the post-treatment incubation, the cell viability test was performed. Cell viability was measured by dehydrogenase conversion of MTT into a blue formazan salt that was quantitatively measured after extraction from tissues. The percent reduction of cell viability in comparison of untreated negative controls was used to predict eye irritation potential.
- RhCE tissue construct used, including batch number
In vitro EpiOcular™ OCL-200 was used. EpiOcular EIT is a reconstructed ocular tissue model containing primary human keratinocytes. It models the cornea epithelium with progressively stratified, but not cornified cells. It was obtained from MatTek In Vitro Life Science Laboratories, Bratislava, Slovak Republic. Lot no. 30633, Keratinocyte strain 4F1188.
- Indication of controls used for direct MTT-reducers and/or colouring test chemicals
To assess whether the test substance has the ability to directly reduce MTT and to form a blue/purple reaction product which could have an impact on the quantitative MTT measurement, 50 mg of the test substance were added to 1 mL of MTT solution (1.0 mg/mL MTT in DMEM) and incubated for three hours at 37 °C. A negative control (50 μL of water for injection) was run concurrently. At the end of the exposure time the colour of treated MTT remained unchanged and it was concluded that the test substance did not reduce MTT directly.
Coloured test substances or test substances, which become coloured after application to the tissues, may interfere with the quantitative photometric MTT measurement if the colourant binds to the tissue and is extracted together with MTT. Therefore, the test substance was checked for its colourant properties. 50 mg of the test substance were added to 2 mL of isopropanol and incubated for 3 h at room temperature. Two 200 μL aliquots of isopropanol solutions and of pure isopropanol were transferred to a 96-well plate and the absorbance was measured at the MTT measurement wavelength. The OD of the test substance solution was < 0.08 (blank corrected). The test substance does not interact with the MTT measurement. In addition, 50 mg of the test substance was added to 1 mL of purified water. The mixture was incubated for 60 min at 37 °C. Subsequently to incubation, presence of staining was evaluated. The colour of the mixture was unchanged. Therefore, an additional test with freeze-killed tissues was not performed.
- Wavelength and band pass used for quantifying MTT formazan, and linearity range of measuring device (e.g. spectrophotometer)
The optical densities (ODs) were read in a 96-well plate spectrophotometer (MRX II, Dynex) using a wavelength of 540 nm without a reference filter.
- Description of the method used to quantify MTT formazan
At the end of the 18 h post-treatment incubation, tissues were transferred to 0.3 mL/well of MTT solution (1 mg/mL) and incubated for 180 min at 37 °C. After incubation, each tissue was transferred to 1 mL/well isopropanol, so that no isopropanol was flowing into the insert. The plates were sealed with parafilm and stored overnight at 2 – 8 °C in the dark. At the end of the non-submerged extraction inserts and tissues were discarded without piercing and 1 mL of isopropanol was added into each well. The extract solution was mixed and two 200 μL aliquots were transferred to the appropriate wells of a pre-labeled 96-well plate and the absorbance at 540 nm (OD) of each well was measured with a plate reader (spectrophotometer MRX II, Dynex).
- Description of evaluation criteria used
In accordance with OECD TG 492, the test substance is considered to be not irritating to eye if the tissue viability after 6 h exposure, 25 min post-exposure immersion and 18 h post-exposure incubation is > 60% relative to the negative control-treated tissue.
If the test substance-treated tissue viability is ≤ 60% relative to negative control-treated tissue viability, the test item is considered to be irritant.
- Complete supporting information for the specific RhCE tissue construct used
The quality of the EpiOcular™ OCL-200 tissue was assessed by an MTT cell viability test. The determined OD (540 - 570 nm) was 2.05 ± 0.055 (acceptance criteria: 1.1 - 3.0).
The barrier function was assessed by determination of the exposure time required to reduce tissue viability by 50% (ET-50) following application of 100 µL 0.3% Triton X-100. The ET-50 value was determined to be 15.57 min (acceptance criteria: 12.2 - 37.5 min).
The cells used to produce the EpiOcular™ OCL-200 tissue were screened for the presence of HIV-1 virus, hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, bacteria, yeast and other fungi. No contamination was detected.
- Reference to historical data of the RhCE tissue construct
MatTek's acceptance criteria are based on a quality check database containing 1996 measurements. Historical control data of 0.3% Triton X-100 cell viability are mean ± SD = 24.9 min ± 6.3 min, minimum 12.2 min, maximum 37.5 min.
- Demonstration of proficiency in performing the test method before routine use by testing of the proficiency chemicals
Demonstration of proficiency is stated in amendment No. 1 to the study report. The technical proficiency is demonstrated by using proficiency chemicals for in vitro eye irritation testing. From all proficiency substances included in the proficiency study 100% of the results were categorized correctly regarding the expected prediction model. For all control substances historical data demonstrated the reliability and validity of those substances.
- Positive and negative control means and acceptance ranges based on historical data
historical control data (HCD) positive control: mean cell viability ± SD = 31.05% ± 8.31%; range 17.3 - 44.8%
historical control data (HCD) negative control: mean optical density ± SD = 1.32 ± 0.16; range 1.074 - 1.560
- Acceptance criteria and acceptable variability between tissue replicates for positive and negative controls
The results are acceptable if the negative control OD is > 0.8 and < 2.5 and if the mean relative viability of the positive control is < 50% of the negative control viability.
The assay is considered valid if the difference of viability between two relating treatments is < 20% in the same run (for positive and negative control tissues).
- Acceptable variability between tissue replicates for the test chemical
The assay is considered valid if the difference of viability between the two relating tissues of a single test substance is < 20% in the same run.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: irritating potential
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the conducted test, the test substance AF-959 is considered to possess an irritating potential towards human cornea in the EpiOcular™ model but the result is not conclusive with respect to classification of the test substance as eye irritant (Eye Irritant Cat. 2) or serious eye damage (Eye Damage Cat. 1). Based on the precautionary principle, the substance AF-959 will be classified for causing serious eye damage (Eye Damage Cat. 1) (Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008).
