In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
human
Cell type:
non-transformed keratinocytes
Cell source:
skin obtained from plastic surgery from multiple donors
Details on animal used as source of test system:
EpiDerm™ Reconstructed Human Epidermis (Lot no.: 28326)
- All cells used to produce Epiderm™ are purchased or derived from tissue obtained by MatTek Corporation from acredited institutions.
- Cells are screened for potential biological contaminants (HIV-1, Hepatitis B, Hepatitis C, bacteria, yeast and fungi)
Justification for test system used:
Recommended test system in international guidelines (OECD and EC).
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on test system:
RECONSTRUCTED HUMAN EPIDERMIS (RHE) TISSUE
- Model used: EpiDerm Skin Model (EPI-200)
- Tissue lot number: 28326, kit G and H
- Surface: 0.6 cm^2
- The model consists of keratinocytes which have been cultured to form a multilayered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis.

TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: All incubations, with the exception of the test item incubation of 3 minutes at room temperature, were carried out in a controlled environment at 37.0 ± 1.0°C (actual range 35.7 - 37.2°C).

REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
- After the exposure period, the tissues were washed with phosphate buffered saline to remove residual test item.
- Due to the characteristics of the test item it was difficult to remove and therefore some residual test item could still be left on the skin.

MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: 1 mg/mL
- Incubation time: 3 h
- Spectrophotometer: TECAN Infinite® M200 Pro Plate Reader
- Wavelength: 570 nm

NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES: 2 replicates per exposure duration, one negative control, one positive contol.

ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
The in vitro skin corrosion test is considered acceptable if it meets the following criteria:
a) The absolute mean OD570 of the two tissues of the negative control should reasonably be within the laboratory historical control data range.
b) The mean relative tissue viability following 1-hour exposure to the positive control should be <15 %.
c) In the range 20 - 100% viability, the Coefficient of Variation (CV) between tissue replicates should be ≤ 30%.

DECISION CRITERIA
A test item is considered corrosive in the skin corrosion test if:
a) The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute treatment compared to the negative control tissues is decreased below 50%.
b) In addition, a test item considered non-corrosive (viability ≥ 50%) after the 3-minute treatment is considered corrosive if the relative tissue viability after 1-hour treatment with the test item is decreased below 15%.

A test item is considered non corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test if:
a) The relative mean tissue viability obtained after the 3-minute treatment compared to the negative control tissues is not decreased below 50%.
b) In addition, the relative tissue viability after the 1-hour treatment is not decreased below 15%.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
An in vitro skin corrosion test was conducted according to OECD guideline 431 and GLP principles. Based on the results, C.I. Pigment Red 81:2 is concluded not to be corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test and therefore is not classified for corrosive effects on the skin according to according to GHS and CLP criteria.
