In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
human
Cell type:
non-transformed keratinocytes
Cell source:
other: Human donors. Tissue is obtained by MatTek Corporation from accredited institutions.
Justification for test system used:
The test is based on the experience that corrosive chemicals show cytotoxic effects following short-term exposure to the stratum corneum of the epidermis. The test is designed to predict and classify the skin corrosion potential of a test item by assessment of its effect on a three-dimensional human epidermis model.
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on test system:
RECONSTRUCTED HUMAN EPIDERMIS (RHE) TISSUE
- Model used: EpiDerm
- Tissue batch number(s): 28326
- Delivery date: 18 April 2018
- Date of initiation of testing: 16 April 2018

TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: all incubations, with the excepton of the test item incubation of 3 minutes at room temperature, were carried out at 37 +/- 1ºC.

REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
-Volume and number of washing steps: After the exposure period, the tissues were washed with phosphate buffered saline (Invitrogen Corporation, Breda, The Netherlands) to remove residual test item. Due to the characteristics of the test item it was difficult to remove and therefore some residual test item could still be left on the skin. The skin inserts were carefully dried. Rinsed tissues were kept in 24 well plates on 300 μL DMEM until 6 tissues (= one application time) were dosed and rinsed.

MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: MTT concentrate (5 mg/mL) diluted (1:5) with MTT diluent (supplemented DMEM). Both supplied by MatTek Corporation.
- Incubation time: 3 hours
- Spectrophotometer: TECAN Infinite® M200 Pro Plate Reader
- Wavelength: 570 nm

FUNCTIONAL MODEL CONDITIONS WITH REFERENCE TO HISTORICAL DATA
- Viability: Acceptance criteria: OD (540-570 nm) 1.0 - 3.0. Pass (value: 2.124 +/- 0.066)
- Barrier function: Acceptance criteria: ET-50 3.68 - 8.02 h. Pass (value: 6.13 h)
- No contamination

NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES: Two tissues for a 3-minute exposure and 2 tissues for a 1-hour exposure

NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT TEST SEQUENCES / EXPERIMENTS TO DERIVE FINAL PREDICTION: 1

PREDICTION MODEL / DECISION CRITERIA (choose relevant statement)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The Thio Isocyanate Adduct is not corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test under the experimental conditions described in this report.
Executive summary:

The study was performed to evaluate Thio Isocyanate Adduct for its ability to induce skin corrosion on a human three dimensional epidermal model (EpiDerm (EPI-200)). The possible corrosive potential of Thio Isocyanate Adduct was tested through topical application for 3 minutes and 1 hour. The study procedures were based on OECD guideline 431 and performed according to GLP. Thio Isocyanate Adduct was applied undiluted (50 μL) directly on top of the skin tissue. The positive control had a mean relative tissue viability of 6.8% after the 1-hour exposure. The absolute mean OD570 (optical density at 570 nm) of the negative control tissues was within the acceptance limits of OECD 431 (lower acceptance limit ≥0.8 and upper acceptance limit <=2.8) and the laboratory historical control data range. In the range of 20 - 100% viability the Coefficient of Variation between tissue replicates was <= 22%, indicating that the test system functioned properly.

Skin corrosion is expressed as the remaining cell viability after exposure to the test item. The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with Thio Isocyanate Adduct compared to the negative control tissues was 102% and 81%, respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for Thio Isocyanate Adduct was not below 50% after the 3-minute treatment and not below 15% after the 1-hour treatment Thio Isocyanate Adduct is considered to be not corrosive.

In conclusion, Thio Isocyanate Adduct is not corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test under the experimental conditions described in this report.
