In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
human
Cell type:
other: Human derived transformed keratinocytes.
Cell source:
other: EpiDerm(R)
Details on animal used as source of test system:
Origin:
EpiDerm(TM) tissues were procured from MatTek In Vitro Life Science Laboratories, Bratislava.
Designation of the kit: EPI-200-SIT
Day of delivery: 08. Mar. 2016
Batch no.: 23320
Justification for test system used:
validated test system
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on test system:
Specification:
Commercially available EpiDerm (TM)-Kit.
The EpiDerm(TM) tissue consists of human-derived epidermal keratinocytes which have been cultured to form a multi-layered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis. It consists of organized basal, spinous and granular layers, and a multi-layered stratum corneum containing intercellular lamellar lipid layers arranged in patterns analogous to those found in vivo. The EpiDerm(TM) tissues are cultured on specially prepared cell culture inserts.
Control samples:
yes, concurrent positive control
other: Dulbecco PBS
Amount/concentration applied:
The test item was applied directly to each tissue and spread to match the tissue size (0.63 cm2)
Duration of treatment / exposure:
60 minutes

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Skin irritation of the test substance was tested in vitro using the EpiDerm (R) system in OECD 439 guideline under GLP. No decrease in cell viability was observed, as measured by MTT reduction to formazan. The substance is not classified as a skin irritant.
