Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- other: MTT test method
- Deviations:
- no
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The method allows to evaluate a toxic event and related cytotoxicity by a colorimetric assay. Solution of MTT in balanced saline is yellowish in color. Mitochondrial dehydrogenase of viable cells cleaves the tetrazolium ring yielding blue/purple MTT crystals which are insoluble in aqueous solutions. Crystals formed by viable cells are retained in the polycarbonate filter used as substrate for the 3D construct. Intense purple colour of the cultures indicates the viability of the cell at the basal layer, whereas colour remains white when necrosis occurs. Negative controls are of a dark blue colour and positive controls are white-yellow.
MTT crystals are extracted by isopropanol and optical density is measured at 570 nm. - GLP compliance:
- yes (incl. QA statement)

Results
- Irritation parameter:
- other: Cell viability
- Basis:
- mean
- Time point:
- other: 1h + 16h
- Score:
- ca. 0.472
- Max. score:
- 100
- Reversibility:
- not specified
- Remarks on result:
- other: SD ± 0.039
- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- The prediction model for eye irritation ciassification is based on cell viability (MTT-modified protocol) after 1h+16h exposure (SOP M 04).
A cut-off of 50% is accepted for discriminating between potential irritant (<50 %) and not classified (>50 %). Positive control (Ethanol) satisfies acceptance criteria if it is classified as irritant (<50 %).
Mean tissue viability is <50 % Irritant (I) R36
Mean tissue viability is >50 % Not Classified (NC)
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- A cell viability < 50% corresponding to the cut-off value for eye irritant classification has been quantified for positive control (0,6246%) and test item (0,4719%).
- Executive summary:
The present study has been conducted in order to assess in vitro, on a Human Corneal Epithelium model (HCE), the eye irritation potential of Paraffin waxes and Hydrocarbon waxes C14-17, chloro, sulfochlorinated, low sulphonated, saponified.
Eye irritation potential of the test item was assessed at 1h followed by product washing and a post incubation period of 16h by using the MTT test method to quantify the residual cell viability. A complementary histo-morphological analysis was associated.
According to the adopted prediction model based on MTT results the chemicals have been classified as reported in the following table.
Classification based on cell viability-MTT results.
CHEMICAL 1h+16h CN NC ETOH IR S-0512 IR (NC=Not Classified; IR=Irritant for the eye, R 36 )
The scoring of the complementary histo-morphological analysis was in agreement with the cell viability results.
A cell viability < 50% corresponding to the cut-off value for eye irritant classification has been quantified for positive control (0,6246%) and test item (0,4719%).
