Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item is not corrosive in the in vitro skin corrosion test under the experimental conditions described in this summary.
Executive summary:

The skin corrosion potential of the test item was evaluated in accordance with the OECD 431 guidance document and GLP using the reconstructed human epidermis (RHE) skin model.

The test item was tested through topical application for 3 minutes and 1 hour on a human three dimensional epidermal model (EpiDerm (EPI-200)). The test item was heated up to 60°C and applied undiluted (50 µl) directly on top of the skin tissue.

The positive control had a mean relative tissue viability of 11% after the 1-hour exposure. The absolute mean OD570(optical density at 570 nm) of the negative control tissues was within the acceptance limits of OECD 431 (lower acceptance limit ≥0.8 and upper acceptance limit ≤2.8) and the laboratory historical control data range. In the range of 20 - 100% viability the Coefficient of Variation between tissue replicates was ≤ 25%, indicating that the test system functioned properly.

The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute and 1-hour treatments with the test item compared to the negative control tissues was 104% and 89%, respectively. Because the mean relative tissue viability for the test item was not below 50% after the 3-minute treatment and not below 15% after the 1-hour treatment the test item is considered to be not corrosive.

It is concluded that this test is valid and that the test item is not corrosive in thein vitro skin corrosion test under the experimental conditions described in this summary.
