Description of key information
In an in vitro skin irritation assay the relative absorbance value of the negative control the corrected mean relative absorbance value was reduced to 96.5% after exposure of the skin tissues to the test item. This value is above the threshold for irritancy of ≤ 50%. Therefore, the test item is not considered to possess an irritant potential.
According to the available BCOP study, Pigment Additiv FGR does not require classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage.

- Executive summary:
This in vitro study was performed to assess the irritation potential of Pigment-Additiv FGR by means of the Human Skin Model Test.
The test item passed the MTT interference pre-test. Due to its intensive colour, an additional test with one viable tissue (without MTT addition) was necessary to correct the result in the main experiment.
Approximately 25 mg of the test item and each 30 µL of the negative control (DPBS) or the positive control (5% SLS) were applied to triplicate tissue each.
The test item and the positive and negative controls were washed off the skin tissues after 60 minutes treatment. After further incubation for about 43.3 hours the tissues were treated with the MTT solution for 3 hours following nearly 69 hours extraction of the colorant from the cells. The amount of extracted colorant was determined photometrically at 570 nm.
The acceptance criteria were met:
· Tissue viability was meeting the acceptance criterion if the mean OD570of the negative control tissues was³0.8 and≤2.8 (values between 1.738 and 1.972).
· The mean relative tissue viability of the positive control was£20% (2.8).
· The relative standard deviations between the % variability values of the test item and the controls in the main test were below 8% (threshold of the "OECD Guideline for the Testing of Chemicals 439:In vitroSkin Irritation: Reconstructed Human Epidermis Test Method”: < 18%), thus ensuring the validity of the study.
Compared to the relative absorbance value of the negative controlthe corrected mean relative absorbance value was reduced to 96.5% after exposure of the skin tissues to the test item. This value is above the threshold for irritancy of ≤ 50%. Therefore, the test item is not considered to possess an irritant potential.

The optical pre-experiment (colour interference pre-experiment) to investigate the test item’s colour change potential in water led to a change in colour. An additional test with one viable tissue was necessary. The result was used for data correction of the results in the main experiment.
Optical evaluation of the MTT-reducing capacity of the test item after 1 hour incubation with MTT-reagent did not show blue colour. An additional test with freeze-killed tissues was not necessary.
The mean relative absorbance value of the test item after correction, corresponding to the cell viability, was reduced to 96.5% (threshold for irritancy: ≤ 50%) compared to the result of the negative control, consequently the test item was not irritant to skin.

- Strain:
- not specified
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- Source: Schlachthof Aschaffenburg, 63739 Aschaffenburg, Germany
- Vehicle:
- physiological saline
- Amount / concentration applied:
- The test item was tested as a 20% suspension (w/v) in saline. The test item was crushed in mortar with a pistil to improve its consistency. The test item could not be suspended or solved homogeneously, therefore, each 0.75 mL of the prepared stock was distributed to each cornea.
Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.75 mL - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 240 minutes
- Details on study design:
- Three corneas were exposed to each 0.75 mL of a 20% (w/v) suspension of the stest item in physiological saline for 240 minutes.
After treatment the test item suspension was rinsed off the corneas and the corneas' opacity was determined. In a second step the permeability of the corneas was determined photometrically after 90 minutes treatment with fluorescein solution.
SCORING SYSTEM:
Opacity measurement
The opacitometer determines changes in the light transmission passing through the corneae, and displays a numerical opacity value. This value was recorded in a table. The opacitometer (OP_KiT opacitometer (Electro Design, 63-Riom, France)) was calibrated as described in the manual and the opacity of each of the corneae was determined by reading each holder placed in the photoreceptor compartment for treated cornea.
After exposure of the corneae to the test groups and after rinsing the opacity value was determined again (t240).
Permeability Determination
Following to the opacity readings, the permeability was measured as an indication of the integrity of the epithelial cell sheets. After the final opacity measurement was performed, the incubation medium was removed from the anterior compartment and replaced by 1 mL of a 0.5% (w/v) sodium fluorescein solution in HBSS. Corneae were incubated again in a horizontal position for 90 ± 10 minutes in a water-bath at 32 ± 1 °C. Incubation medium from the posterior compartment were removed, well mixed and transferred into a 96 well plate and the optical density at 490 nm (OD490) was determined with a spectrophotometer.
The optical density was measured with a microplate reader (Versamax® Molecular Devices) at 490 nm (OD490). The absorbance values were determined using the software SoftMax Pro Enterprise (version 4.7.1).
DATA EVALUATION
Opacity
The change of opacity value of each treated cornea or positive and negative control corneae is calculated by subtracting the initial basal opacity from the post treatment opacity reading (t240 – t0), for each individual cornea.
The average change in opacity of the negative control corneae is calculated and this value is subtracted from the change in opacity of each treated cornea or positive control to obtain a corrected opacity.
Permeability
The corrected OD490 value of each cornea treated with positive control and test item is calculated by subtracting the average negative control cornea value from the original permeability value for each cornea.
IVIS Calculation
The following formula is used to determine the IVIS of the negative control:
The following formula is used to determine the IVIS of the negative control:
IVIS = opacity value + (15 x OD490 value)
The following formula is used to determine the IVIS of the positive control and the test item:
IVIS = (opacity value – opacity value mean negative control) + (15 x corrected OD490 value)
The mean IVIS value of each treated group is calculated from the IVIS values.
Depending on the mean IVIS obtained, the test item is classified according to OECD guideline 437 as follows:
IVIS: UN GHS
≤ 3 No Category
> 3; ≤ 55 No prediction can be made
> 55 Category 1
Criteria for Determination of a Valid Test
The test will be acceptable if
• the positive control gives an IVIS that falls within two standard deviations of the current historical mean (updated every three months), and if
• the negative control responses result in opacity and permeability values that are less than the established upper limits for background opacity and permeability values for bovine corneae treated with the respective negative control. - Irritation parameter:

- Executive summary:
This in vitro study was performed to assess the corneal damage potential of Pigment Additiv FGR by means of the BCOP assay using fresh bovine corneae.
After a first opacity measurement of the fresh bovine corneae (t0), the 20% (w/v)suspensionin saline of the test item Pigment Additiv FGR, the positive, and the negative controls were applied to corneae and incubated for 240 minutes at 32± 1 °C. After the incubation phase the test item, the positive, and the negative controls were each rinsed from the corneae andopacity was measured again (t240).
After the opacity measurements permeability of the corneae was determined by measuring spectrophotometrically the transfer of sodium fluorescein after incubation in a horizontal position for 90 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C.
With the negative control (saline) neither an increase of opacity nor permeability of the corneae could be observed (mean IVIS =1.19).
The positive control (10% (w/v) Benzalkonium chloride in saline) showed clear opacity and distinctive permeability of the corneae (mean IVIS =128.59) corresponding to a classification asserious eye damaging(CLP/EPA/GHS (Cat 1)).
Relative to the negative control, the test itemPigment Additiv FGRdid not cause an increaseof the corneal opacityor permeability.The calculated mean IVIS was1.37(Decission Criteria ≤ 3: no categorie, > 3; ≤ 55: no prediction can be made, > 55: Category 1). Based on these findings and according to OECD 437 the test itemdoes not require classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage (UN GHS No Category).
