- Details on mammalian cell line
The BALB/c 3T3 cell line was isolated from the muscle tissue of the mouse embryo. This fibroblast cell line has a high proliferation rate (doubling time 16 - 20 hours in stock cultures) and a high plating efficiency of untreated cells (as a rule more than 70%) both necessary for the appropriate performance of the study. The cell line BALB/c 3T3 was isolated first by Aaronson and Todaro.

- Control animals:

- Details on study design:
- The neutral red (NR) test was developed by Borenfreund & Puerner and is used for the investigation of the cytotoxic potential of a test item. In this study the toxicity of the test item after irradiation with artificial sunlight is determined. The test protocol was developed in 1991 at Beiersdorf AG, Hamburg and validated in an ECVAM, COLIPA, and ZEBET coordinated ring trial. The study was initiated involving 11 laboratories.
The NR assay is based on the uptake of neutral red, a vital dye, and its accumulation in the lysosomes of viable uninjured cells. After storing the neutral red in the lysosomes of the viable uninjured cells, they are lysed with a mixture of deionised water (49% (v/v)), ethanol (50% (v/v)) and glacial acetic acid (1% (v/v)). The extracted neutral red is quantified photometrically at 540 nm.
For the determination of a phototoxic potential the cells were treated with various concentrations of the test item with and without irradiation with artificial sunlight (wave length > 320 nm). The cytotoxic response curves of the test groups were compared. The IC50-values were determined and compared to measure a possible phototoxicity

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Reaction mass of N-[2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl]acetamide and glycerol did not have any phototoxic effects on BALB/c 3T3 cells, and showed no cytotoxicity up to the highest tested concentration of 1000 µg/mL.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the phototoxic potential of reaction mass of N-[2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl]acetamide and glycerol. The test was performed using BALB/c 3T3 cells clone 31.
1000 µg/mL of the test item, dissolved in EBSS were applied as the highest concentration.
The experiment was performed twice. The first experiment served as a range finding experiment (RFE), the second experiment was the main experiment (ME).
The following concentrations of the test item were tested with and without irradiation in both experiments:
7.81, 15.63, 31.25, 62.5, 125, 250, 500, 1000 µg/mL
As solvent control EBSS was used.
Chlorpromazine was used as positive control. The following concentrations were applied:
without irradiation
6.25, 12.5, 25.0, 37.5, 50, 75, 100, 200 µg/mL
with irradiation
0.125, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 4.0 µg/mL
In both experiments one test group of cells treated with the test item was irradiated withartificial sunlight for 50 minutes with 1.65 mW/cm2UVA, resulting in an irradiation dose of~ 5 J/cm2UVA. Another test group of test item treated cells were kept in the dark for 50 minutes.

In both experiments no cytotoxic effects were observed after treatment of cells with reaction mass of N-[2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl]acetamide and glycerol, neither in the presence nor in the absence of irradiation with artificial sunlight. Therefore, IC50-values or PIFs could not be calculated. The resulting MPE was -0.044 or -0.029, respectively,and therefore, the test item is classified as not phototoxic.
The positive control chlorpromazine induced phototoxicity in the expected range after irradiation with artificial sunlight.
In conclusion, it can be stated that in the study described and under the experimental conditions reported Reaction mass of N-[2-(2-hydroxyethoxy)ethyl]acetamide and glycerol did not have any phototoxic effects on BALB/c 3T3 cells.
