Test system

Details on study design:
The EpiSKIN assay uses reconstructed human epidermis to assess skin corrosion. For the viability test enzymatic conversion of MTT to formazan is used.

In a pre-test direct interaction of the test substance with the detection chemical MTT is assessed. As the substance showed interference additional controls were added (water killed EPISKIN tissues).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test substance is non-corrosivein the EPISKIN reconstructed human epidermal model.
Executive summary:

In the EpiSKIN test, tissues of reconstructed human skin were treated with 50 uL of the test substance in duplicate during 3, 60 and 240 minutes. After treatment tissues were rinsed and incubated with MTT for 3 hours (at room temeprature). Thereafter tissues were allowed to dry, epidermis and collagen were separated, suspended (after vortexing) in isopropanol and kept overnight (all procedures in dark). Optical density of homogene solutions of MTT treated tissues was measured at 540 nm. As the test substance was shown to interfere with the MTT reduction, additional controls were included (non-viable tissue). Viability was expressed as the corrected percentage MTT conversion versus negative control. The true viability was 74.7 -94.2% for the different exposure times, which is indicative for non-corrosive substances.
