- Temperatur used during post-treatment: after washing, incubation with MTT solution for 3 hours at 37°C

REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
- Washing: after the incubation period inserts were washed carefully in PBS
- Observable damage in the tissue due to washing: not applicable
- Modifications to validated SOP: not applicable

MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: 1 mg/ml
- Incubation time: 3 hours
- Spectrophotometer: EL808, Bio-Tek
- Wavelength: 570 nm


FUNCTIONAL MODEL CONDITIONS WITH REFERENCE TO HISTORICAL DATA
Reliability of the test was previously confirmed by interlaboratory validation

NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES:
All tests were performed in triplicates for each concentration and each time point

PREDICTION MODEL / DECISION CRITERIA
- The test substance is considered to be corrosive to skin if [complete, e.g. the viability after 3 minutes exposure is less than 50%, or if the viability after 3 minutes exposure is greater than or equal to 50 % and the viability after 1 hour exposure is less than 15%.]
- The test substance is considered to be non-corrosive to skin if [complete, e.g. the viability after 3 minutes exposure is greater than or equal to 50% and the viability after 1 hour exposure is greater than or equal to 15%.]
Control samples:
yes, concurrent negative control

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not corrosive to skin
Executive summary:

The test substance was evaluated of corrosive properties by using an artificial 3D-Skin model according to OECD guideline 431. The test substance was characterized by no significant impact on cell viability after 3 min. or after the 60 min. period. Thus, the test substance is not to be labeled as corrosive to skin.
