Details on test system:

EpiDerm is a three-dimensional reconstructed human epidermis model, comprised of normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes. Multiple layers of viable epithelial cells were present under a functional stratum corneum. The skin model also had a stromal component layer. Stratum corneum was multi-layered with the necessary lipid profile to produce a functional barrier with robustness to resist rapid penetration of cytotoxic markers.

Corrosive materials are identified by their ability to produce a decrease in cell viability (as determined, for example, by using the MTT reduction assay) below defined threshold levels at specified exposure periods. The principle of the human skin model assay is based on the hypothesis that corrosive chemicals are able to penetrate the stratum corneum by diffusion or erosion, and are cytotoxic to the underlying cell layers.

The EpiDerm™ System was manufactured according to defined quality assurance procedures. All biological components of the epidermis and the culture medium were tested by manufacturer for viral, bacterial, fungal and mycoplasma contamination. MatTek determines the ET50 value following exposure to Triton X-100 (1%) for each EpiDerm lot. The ET50 must fall within a range established based on a historical database of results.

Control samples:

yes, concurrent negative control

yes, concurrent positive control

Amount/concentration applied:

- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 50 μL of undiluted test item were applied to the skin model with a surface area of 0.63 cm2 to uniformly cover the skin surface which was moistened with sterile deionised water to ensure adequate contact with the skin. Two replicate tissues for each treatment (exposure periods) were employed. At the end of the exposure period, the test item was carefully washed from the skin surface with Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (D-PBS).

NEGATIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight): 50 μL deionised water was added to each of the two negative control skin units.

POSITIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight): 50 μL KOH was added to each of the two positive control skin units.
- Concentration (if solution): 8N solution

Duration of treatment / exposure:

3 minutes or 1 hour (37°C, 5% CO2 and 95% humidity)

Remarks:

Mean relative viability >=50% (after 3 minutes) and <15% (after 1 hour) the test substance is considered to be corrosive to skin (classified as sub-category 1B-and-1C)

Other effects / acceptance of results:

The standard deviation of all replicates determined (at 20-100% viability) was below the limit of acceptance of 30%. Hence, all acceptance criteria were fulfilled.

Any other information on results incl. tables

No discolorations were noted in the test for colour change under aqueous conditions. Additionally, no change of colour was noted in the test for MTT interference potential. Therefore the test item did not interact with the MTT measurement and no additional test had to be performed.

 

The mean optical density (OD) of the negative control of 2 tissues was 1.477 (3-minute exposure) or 1.401 (1-hour exposure) and was well within the acceptable range of ≥ 0.8 to ≤ 2.8. The mean OD (and hence cell viability) of the positive control was 7.0% (3-minute exposure) or 9.6% (1-hour exposure) of the negative control and fulfilled the acceptance criterion of < 15% for the 1-hour exposure. The standard deviation of all replicates determined (at 20 - 100% viability) was below the limit of acceptance of 30%.Hence, all acceptance criteria required were fulfilled.

 

The summary of the results is given below:

	Optical density (OD) - 3 -minute exposure			OD - 1 -hour exposure

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

other: Sub-category 1B-and-1C since this test cannot resolve between the two

Conclusions:

In an in vitro EpiDerm assay conducted in accordance with OECD guideline 431 and to GLP, dihydrogen hexahydroxyplatinate compound with 2-aminoethanol (1:2) was corrosive to skin and classified as sub-category 1B-and-1C.

Executive summary:

Dihydrogen hexahydroxyplatinate compound with 2-aminoethanol (1:2) was tested for skin corrosivity potential in an in vitro EpiDerm assay conducted in accordance with OECD guideline 431 and to GLP.

Cell viability was quantitatively measured using the MTT reduction assay with optical density being expressed as a relative percentage of that of the negative control. The mean cell viability following exposure to the test substance was calculated to be greater than 50% (51.5% of the negative controls) after a 3-minute exposure and less than 15% (12.8% of the negative controls) after a 1-hour exposure, and it was therefore considered to be corrosive to skin.

Under the conditions of this assay, dihydrogen hexahydroxyplatinate compound with 2-aminoethanol (1:2) did not meet the criteria for classification as corrosive category 1A under GHS classification criteria but would be classified as sub-category 1B-and-1C.

Based on the results of this study, the test item should be classified as corrosive to the skin (category 1B) according to EU CLP criteria (EC 1272/2008).
