Qualifier:

no guideline available

Principles of method if other than guideline:

The purpose of this study is to determine the eye irritation potential of trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate using the SkinEthic Reconstituted Human Corneal model after a treatment period of 10 minutes. It is thought that irritant chemicals are able to penetrate the stratum corneum and are sufficiently cytotoxic to cause cell death in the underlying cell layers. Cytotoxicity is determined by the reduction of MTT to formazan by viable cells in the trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate treated tissues relative to the negative control.

GLP compliance:

yes (incl. QA statement)

Vehicle:

unchanged (no vehicle)

Controls:

other: not applicable as in vitro test.

Amount / concentration applied:

Main test: 30 mg of trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate
Negative control: 30 microlitres os solution A (Na2HPO4 0.142 g/l; Glucose 1.802 g/l; HEPES 7.149 g/l; KCl 0.224 g/l; NaCl 7.597 g/l)
Positive control: 30 microlitres of 1% w/v Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate (SDS)

Duration of treatment / exposure:

10 minutes

Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

No animals involved - in vitro test.

Details on study design:

Experimental design of this study consists of a test for direct reduction of MTT by the test materials followed by the main test. For the main test, triplicate SkinEthic tissues are treated with 30 mg of trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate for 10 minutes. Triplicate tissues treated with 30 microlitres of solution A served as the negative control and triplicate tissues treated with 30 microlitres of 1% w/v Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate served as the positive control. After the exposure period, each SkinEthic tissue was rinsed and taken for MTT loading and extraction. The absorbency of triplicate alquots of the extracted MTT solution for each SkinEthic tissue is measured and the cell viability for each is calculated.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not irritating

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment

Conclusions:

This study suggests that trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate is considered to be a non-irritant.

Executive summary:

In a primary eye irritation study 30 mg of trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate without a vehicle was instilled onto a reconstituted human corneal epithelium model. for 10 minutes. After the exposure, the tissues were rinsed and taken for MTT testing. Irritation was scored by the method of % cell viability.

 In this study, trisodium 6,6',6"-(1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triyltriimino)trihexanoate is not an eye irritant.
