In vitro test system
- Test system:
- isolated skin discs
- Source species:
- rat
- Cell type:
- other: Dorso-lateral skin of rats
- Cell source:
- other: Dorso-lateral skin of rats
- Source strain:
- Wistar
- Details on animal used as source of test system:
- SOURCE ANIMAL
- Source: skin discs were collected from 2 female rats (outbred) obtained from the conventional husbandry of laboratory animals of the Centre for Experimental Medicine at the Medical University in Katowice.
- Sex: female
- Age at study initiation (in days): 30-day-old (when skin discs were obtained)
- Weight at study initiation: Not specified
- Housing: During the quarantine period, the animals were kept in air-conditioned rooms under the following conditions:
- air temperature: 20 - 23°C
- relative air humidity: 30 – 53%
- artificial fluorescent lighting; lighting cycle: 12 hours light/12 hours dark
- facility air exchange: about 13-16 times/hour
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum
- Quarantine period: Animals were quarantined and observed daily for 3 days - Justification for test system used:
- OECD Guideline 430 is based on the rat skin transcutaneous electrical resistance (TER) test method, which utilizes skin discs to identify corrosives by their ability to produce a loss of normal stratum corneum integrity and barrier function
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on test system:
- SKIN DISC PREPARATION
- Procedure used:
After euthanasia, the dorso-lateral skin of each animal (2 rats) was removed and stripped of excess subcutaneous fat by carefully peeling it away from the skin using a paper towel. The skin discs were cut out using a scalpel. Each skin disc was placed over one of the ends of a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) tube, ensuring that the epidermal surface was in contact with the tube. A rubber ‘O’ ring was press-fitted over the end of the tube to hold the skin in place and excess tissue is trimmed away. The tube was supported by a spring clip inside a receptor chamber containing MgSO4 solution (154 mM). The skin disc should be fully submerged in the MgSO4 solution. As many as 11 skin discs with a diameter of 20-mm each were obtained from a single rat skin. Two of them were used to control the quality of the procedure, whereas the remaining nine were used for the purpose of the experiment.
- Quality control for skin discs: Electrical resistance obtained with the two isolated skin discs mentioned before should be greater than 10 kΩ for the remainder of the discs to be used for the test.
TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: 21-22°C
REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
- Number of washing steps: 1 (the test item and the control items were removed by washing with a jet of tap water at up to 30°C)
DYE BINDING METHOD
The dye binding procedure was not necessary in this case since all TER values for the test item were higher than 5 kΩ and there were not any visible changes on the skin discs.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Non corrosive (according to CLP regulation)
- Conclusions:
- Based on the study results, the test item was considered as non-corrosive to skin.
- Executive summary:
An in vitro skin corrosion: transcutaneous electrical resistance test (TER) was performed on the test substance in accordance with the OECD nº430 with GLP. Skin discs used in the experiment were obtained from two 30-day-old Wistar female rats. Before the start of the experiment, TER of two skin discs obtained from each animal was measured to check that the values were greater than 10 kΩ, therefore, the rest of skin discs could be used in the experiment. The undiluted test item and concurrent positive (10M hydrochloric acid) and negative (distilled water) controls were applied uniformly to the skin discs in a volume of 150 μL for 24 h. Then, they were removed by washing with a jet of tap water. For the test item and the control items, three skin discs were used (three replicates). The mean TER results for the skin discs treated with the test item were equal to 17.80 kΩ (animal no. 1) and 12.13 kΩ (animal no. 2). The concurrent positive and negative control values fell within the acceptable ranges. Gross examinations of the skin discs treated with the test item did not reveal any pathological changes. Based on these results, the test item was considered to be non-corrosive to skin, as mean TER values were higher than 5 kΩ and there were not any visible changes on the skin discs.
