Any other information on results incl. tables

Skin corrosion is expressed as the remaining cell viability after exposure to the test substance. The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with Biomass residue (liquid) obtained after B2 production compared to the negative control tissues was 93% and 92%, respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for Biomass residue (liquid) obtained after B2 production was not below 50% after the 3-minute treatment and not below 15% after the 1-hour treatment Biomass residue (liquid) obtained after B2 production is considered to be not corrosive.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not corrosive
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The positive and negative controls were within the historical control data.

Finally, it is concluded that this test is valid and that Biomass residue (liquid) obtained after B2 production is not corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test.
