Description of key information

Bayhibit AM was tested as a ca. 50 % solution water in vivo and as a water-free substance (Bayhibit AM wasserfrei) in vitro.
The water-free substance (Bayhibit AM wasserfrei) was found to be not irritating or corrosive in vitro experiments with 3D-skin.
The water-free substance (Bayhibit AM wasserfrei) was found to be irritating in the Human Corneal Epithelial Model (HCE) but slightly irritating in the Hen's Egg Chorioallantoic Membrane (HET-CAM) test.
Skin and eye irritation tests with the 50% aqueous gave negative results.

Executive summary:

This study for predicting non-specific, corrosive potentials of compounds by using reconstructed human skin (RHS) was performed in 2011. The experiment was carried out on a reconstructed human epidermis EST-1000 (CellSystems, St. Katharinen, Germany) for detection of topically applied skin corrosives with the test item Bayhibit AM wasserfrei.

Corrosive skin effects of substances are defined as irreversible damage of skin; namely, visible necrosis through the epidermis and into the dermis, following the application of a test substance for up to four hours. In vivo corrosive reactions are typified by ulcers, bleeding, and bloody scabs.

A 100% concentration was tested on the skin/epidermal equivalents in triplets. For the determination of time related cytotoxic effects the incubation periods were 3 min. and 60 min., respectively. By this the study, was conducted in accordance with the OECD 431 guideline as well as with an EC guideline (amending Council Directive 67/548/EEC, B.40 Skin corrosion) using the test item concentrations and incubation periods recommended there. These tests are also related to the revised OECD 404 guideline "Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion".

To check the reliability of this test procedure a blinded positive/negative control study is conducted at regular intervals in the lab. This reliability check is always performed by two technicians, two laboratories in parallel using the same batches of the control test items.

The test item was applied at a 100% concentration, i.e. 25mg per insert.

(plus 50µl 0.9% NaCl to moisten and ensure good contact with the skin)

The MTT (Methylthiazoletetrazolium) method has determined the following values of viability after 3 min. or after 60 min. of incubation: 109% and 20% (rounded), respectively. Thus, the results show that no corrosive property of the test item was determined by the assay used.

Executive summary:

This study which allows the hazard identification of irritant substances in accordance with UN GHS category 2, was performed in 2011. The experiment was carried out according to EU Test Method B.46 using commercially available reconstructed human epidermis (RHS) model EST-1000 (CellSystems, St.Katharinen, Germany).

Undiluted Bayhibit AM wasserfrei was applied topically to the RHS model, i.e. 30 mg per insert (plus 30 µl 0.9% NaCl to moisten and ensure good contact with the skin; three replicates).

After an exposure period of 20 minutes, followed by a 42 hours post-treatment incubation period, the cell viability was measured to be 113% (rounded) in the MTT (Methylthiazoletetrazolium) conversion assay.

The results of the concurrent negative control (NC, 0.9% NaCl) and positive control (PC, 5% SDS) demonstrated the viability (NC) and sensitivity (PC) of the test model.

Thus, the results show that Bayhibit AM wasserfrei is considered to have no skin irritation category.

Executive summary:

A 50% aqueous solution of 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid was tested for skin irritation effects. The substance was applied on the inner side of ear of two rabbits, for 24 hours. The test animals were observed for any physiological changes for 7 days. No dermal irritation or dermal corrosion was seen in any time point. 2-Phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid can be considered under the study conditions to be a non-irritant/corrosive substance. Although there are some differences between the way the (relatively old) study was conducted to the OECD 404 guideline, it seems that there is no need in repeating the study for animal welfare reasons, especially due to the fact that the test substance was defined in the study as non-irritant under stricter test conditions than the ones indicated by the OECD guideline.

Executive summary:

This in vitro study for assessing ocular irritation of compounds using a human epithelial corneal cell model was performed in 2011. The model used is standardized and commercially available (SkinEthicTM Human Corneal Epithelial Model (HCE); SkinEthic, France).

Undiluted Bayhibit AM wasserfrei was applied topically to the HCE tissue, i.e. 30 mg per insert. (plus 30 µl PBS to moisten and ensure good contact with the skin; three replicates)

After an exposure period of 60 minutes, followed by a 16 hours post-treatment incubation period, the cell viability was 2% (rounded) as measured by a MTT conversion assay.

The results of the concurrent negative (NC, PBS) and positive control

(PC, 1H-1,2,4-Triazole-3-thiol) demonstrated the viability (NC) and sensitivity (PC) of the test model.

The results show that Bayhibit AM wasserfrei is predicted as ocular irritant under the conditions of this test method.

Interpretation of results:

Executive summary:

Hen`s egg tests are used to determine the potential irritant/corrosive property of a test compound using an in vitro alternative to the Draize methodology (OECD405).

Bayhibit AM wasserfrei was tested by observing possible adverse changes after application onto the chorioallantoic membrane (HET-CAM).

After the application of the test item blood vessels and albumen were examined and scored for the following irritant effects: vasodilation, slight haemorrhage; vessel lysis, strong haemorrhage; blood coagulation, albumen coagulation for a period of 300 seconds.

300 mg of the test item was applied per egg directly on the chorioallantoic membrane.

Bayhibit AM wasserfrei was identified as “slight irritant” to the chorioallantoic membrane (Irritation Score (IS) = 3) under the conditions of this assay.

Irritant / corrosive response data:

The study concludes a moderate eye irritating effect following the highest score for each parameter for the two rabbits examined.
Other effects:
No other effects

No remarks.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the test substance was considered as a moderate mucosa (eye) irritant, based on the highest and not on the mean of 24, 48, 72 hours.
Executive summary:

A 50% aqueous solution of 2-phosphono-butane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid was examined for eye irritation effects in rabbits. Results showed light short-termed opacity of the cornea and light redness and swelling of the conjunctivae in both examined animals. No other effects, e.g. corrosive effects were observed. The observed irritation effects were reversible during the time frame of the study. Following the highest score given to each one of the investigated parameters (see in table above), the conclusion was that under the test conditions the test substance has a moderately mucosa (eye) irritation effect. However, when the presented study results/scores are evaluated by a calculation of the mean scores and rated according to the current instructions by the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the test substance should thereby be classified as non-irritant. Nevertheless, as the study was reasonably done and the conclusion from this study would be less strict under the current mentioned regulations, it is therefore recommended for animal welfare not to repeat the study.

Bayhibit AM was tested as a ca. 50 % solution water in vivo and as a water-free substance (Bayhibit AM wasserfrei) in vitro.

The water-free substance (Bayhibit AM wasserfrei) was found to be not irritating or corrosive to skin in vitro experiments with 3D-skin.

The water-free substance (Bayhibit AM wasserfrei) was found to be irritating to eye in the Human Corneal Epithelial Model (HCE) and slightly irritating to eye in the Hen's Egg Chorioallantoic Membrane (HET-CAM) test.

Skin and eye irritation tests with the 50% aqueous solution gave negative results.
