Any other information on results incl. tables

Estrone did not interact with MTT.

After 15 minutes of exposure to the neat substance and an additional incubation period of 42 hours the mean tissue viability of tissues treated with the test substance was 99% (negative control tissues 100%, positive control tissues 12%).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: negative
Conclusions:
non-irritating
Executive summary:

Estrone was investigated regarding its potential skin irritating properties using a SkinEthic reconstituted epidermis model (EPISKIN Standard Model). After 15 minutes of exposure to the neat substance and an additional incubation period of 42 hours cell viability of the tissues treated with the test substance was comparable to the cell viability of the negative control tissues. Therefore, estrone can be classified as non-irritating compound .
