REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): At the end of the exposure period, each tissue was removed from the well of the treatment plate using forceps and rinsed using a wash bottle containing Phosphate Buffered Saline Dulbeccos (PBS) with Ca++ and Mg++. Rinsing was achieved by filling and emptying each tissue insert for approximately 40 seconds using a constant soft stream of PBS to gently remove any residual test material.
- Time after start of exposure: 15 ± 0.5 minutes.
SCORING SYSTEM: Not applicable

- Remarks:
- Basis: mean. Time point: 15 minutes. Remarks: Score is in % terms. (migrated information)
Any other information on results incl. tables
For the test material the relative mean tissue viabilities obtained after the 15 minute treatment followed by the 42 hour post-exposure incubation period were compared to the mean of the negative control treated tissues (n=3). The relative mean viabilities were calculated in the following way:
Classification of irritation potential is based upon relative tissue viability following the 15 minute exposure period followed by the 42 hour post-exposure incubation period according to the following table:

*= The mean viability of the negative control tissues is set at 100%
The relative mean viability of the test material treated tissues was 87.8% after a 15 minute exposure.
The MTT solution containing the test material did not turn blue/purple which indicated that the test material did not directly reduce MTT.
