The test item does not contain surfactants.
Data relating to the characterization of the test item are documented in a test item information sheet (archived with the study files) and a Certificate of Analysis provided by the Sponsor.
The description of the test item was confirmed by the Sponsor in an email dated 04 April 2016 (archived with the study files).
Confirmation of the identity of the test item is the responsibility of the Sponsor.

As the test item is a non-surfactant containing liquid, it was tested undiluted (i.e. in its original form). The test item was a yellow to brownish liquid.
According to CiToxLAB France in-house procedures, the test item was sampled and stored at room temperature until use.

Species:

cattle

Strain:

not specified

Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:

Origin: bovine eyes obtained from freshly slaughtered cattle at the abattoir EVA, Saint-Pierre-sur-Dives, France.
Age of the cattle: up to 12 months old.
Reason for choice: recommended by regulatory authorities. They are adapted for the evaluation of potential ocular irritants since they are part of the target organ.
Transport from Supplier to CiToxLAB France: the eyes were transported to CiToxLAB France at ambient temperature, immerged in buffered Hanks medium containing an antibiotic [Hank’s Balanced Salts Solution (HBSS) plus penicillin/streptomycin (100 units/100 µg/mL final)]. A container with smooth internal surfaces was used for the transport to avoid damage to the corneas

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Controls:

yes, concurrent no treatment

yes, concurrent positive control

Amount / concentration applied:

Applied undiluted.
As the test item was a non viscous liquid and could be sampled using a micropipette, a volume of 750 μL (± 8 μL) was applied on each cornea using the closed-chamber method as follows: the test item was introduced into the anterior chamber of the corneal holder, through the dosing holes to cover the epithelial side of the cornea. The dosing holes were then sealed.

Duration of treatment / exposure:

10 minutes (± 30 seconds) (because the test item is a non surfacant liquid)

Duration of post- treatment incubation (in vitro):

Following the 10-minute treatment, the holders were incubated horizontally (corneas placed vertically) for 2 hours (± 10 minutes) in a water bath at +32°C (± 1°C)

Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

3 replicates for each serie (positive control, negative control, test item)

Details on study design:

Corneas obtained from freshly slaughtered calves were mounted in corneal holders. Both chambers of the corneal holder were filled with complemented MEM culture media (cMEM) and pre-incubated for 1 hour and 5 minutes (± 5 minutes) at +32°C.
A single experiment was performed using three corneas for each treated series (test item, positive control and negative control).
Before the treatment, a first opacity measurement was performed on each cornea using an opacitometer. The test item, applied undiluted, and the positive and negative controls were evaluated in a single experiment using a treatment time of 10 minutes and using the closed-chamber method. At the completion of the treatment period, all items were removed from the front opening of the anterior chamber and the epithelia were rinsed.
The corneas were then incubated for 2 hours (± 10 minutes) at +32°C before a second opacity measurement was performed.
After the second opacity measurement, the medium of the anterior chamber was removed and filled with a fluorescein solution. The holders were then incubated vertically for 90 minutes (± 5 minutes) at +32°C. At the end of the incubation period, the optical density of the solution from the posterior chamber of each holder was measured in order to determine the permeability of the cornea. Each cornea was then observed for opaque spots and other irregularities.

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The principle is based on the observation of the irritant effects (hyperemia, hemorrhage, coagulation) which may occur within five minutes after placing a test item onto the chorio-allantoic membrane (CAM) of an embryonated hen egg, on the tenth day of incubation. Depending on the presence of Mese effects and their appearance lime, a score is established. The mean scores obtained from four eggs allows to note the test item and to classe according to its irritant potential. This study is carried out according to the Official Journal of the Republic of France (N° 300), December 26". 1996.

Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

Treatment test on 4 egges
Reference test on 2 eggs

Details on study design:

The different steps were performed rapidly under sufficient intensity lighting non heat releasing to avoid drying of the CAM (otherwise the humidity level is maintained by misting).
The egg was placed vertically on a support (air pocket upwards).
The shell was cracked at the level of the air pocket taking care not to injure the CAM, then she was removed using forceps or a pair ofscissors to the level of the shell membrane.
The released surface was moistened with saline solution warmed to 37°C.
After removal of saline solution by lifting the egg, the shell membrane was gently detached with forceps and then removed in order to uncover the underlying CAM.
Any egg with a defective CAM or traces of haemorrhage is removed.
The CAM integrity was recorded for every egg on scores sheet during the test. Eggs which do not have a living hen embryo are removed too.
300 mg of the warmed test item (pure) or reference item are deposited gently on the CAM with a pipette and the timer was immediately started.
After 20 seconds of contact, the membrane was rinsed with 5 ml of saline solution at 37°C. avoiding any violent splashing. The rince liquid was removed by tilting the egg. Any irritant effects were observed for 5 minutes. The lime of occurrence of each effect is recorded.
At the end of testing, the eggs are frozen at-80 °C until the day of waste disposal according to the instruction 1G HSE 02.

The observations taken into account in the scoring of the test item were made with naked eye.
The observed effects were identified according Io the law of all or nothing (the presence and not the severity of the effect was recorded).

- Hyperemia: capillaries which were invisible before adding the lest or references items become visible, whereas capillaries which were already visible dilate and become redder. This phenomenon may also affect large diameler vessels.
- Hemorrhage: release of blood escaping from the vessels and or capillaries. may take on different appearances, and particularly « cauliflower », patches. diffuse sheet, or punctate (the blood escapes intermittently at différent places in the membrane).
it must be noted that:
Hemorrhage may take on a transient appearance: this must nevertheless by counted
Masked hyperemia must be counted if massive haemorrhage occurs during the first 30 seconds
- Coagulation (Opacity and/or Thrombosis):
1. Opacity: apparition on a part or all of the membrane, of an opalescent sheet or direct opacification (take tare that this effect is not due to the physico-chemical properties of the test item in aqueous medium. formation of a colloid, precipitate,...).
2. Thrombosis: discontinuation of blood flow producing a segmented appearance of the vessels (alternating areas of strangulation more or less dark turgescent areas). Changes occurring in the capillaries were trot counted.

An evaluation note was assigned to each phenomenon according toits occurrence lime: Note according to the Lime:
Phenomenon
(Time) T .s"30 s 30 s < T s - 2 min 2 < T ç5 min
Hyperemia 5 3 I
Hemorrhage 7 5 3
