Details on study design:
TEST SITE
- EPISKIN Small ModelTM(EPISKIN-SMTM, 0.38 cm2, Lot no.: 13-EKIN-025). This model is a three-dimensional human epidermis model, which consists of adult human-derived epidermal keratinocytes which have been seeded on a dermal substitute consisting of a collagen type I matrix coated with type IV collagen. The keratinocytes were cultured for 13 days, which results in a highly differentiated and stratified epidermis model comprising the main basal, supra basal, spinous and granular layers and a functional stratum corneum. Three tissues were treated with test substance, negative and positive control.

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: phosphate buffered saline
- Time after start of exposure: 15 minutes

POST INCUBATION PERIOD
- 42 hours

SCORING SYSTEM:
- Cytotoxicity is expressed as the reduction of mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity measured by formazan production from MTT at the end of the treatment. Cell viability was calculated for each tissue as a percentage of the mean of the negative control tissues.

In vivo

Irritant / corrosive response data:
The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 15 minutes treatment with KF-1622 compared to the negative control tissues was 102%.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The test substance was checked for possible direct MTT reduction by adding the test substance to MTT medium. Because no colour change was observed it was concluded that the test substance did not interact with MTT.

Mean tissue viability for the test substance was > 50%, therefore the test substance is considered not to be irritant to the skin.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The in vitro skin irritation test was conducted according to OECD 439 guideline and GLP principles.
It is concluded that this test is valid and that the test substance is not irritating in the in vitro skin irritation test.
Executive summary:

In an in vitro skin irritation test using a human skin model ( EPISKIN Standard Model) performed according to OECD 439 and GLP principles, the influence of 25 μL undiluted KF-1622 on the viability of human skin was tested. The test substance was applied directly to 0.38 cm2 cultured skin. After 15 minutes, the substance was removed and cells were cultured for 42 hours. The viability of the cells was tested by reduction of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT). Survival of unexposed skin was set at 100%, the positive control had a mean cell viability of 18% whereas the test substance showed cell viability of 102%. Since the mean relative tissue viability after exposure to the test substance was above 50%, it is concluded that the test substance is not irritating in the in vitro skin irritation test.
