Details on test system:
RECONSTRUCTED HUMAN EPIDERMIS (RHE) TISSUE
- Model used: EPI-200 (MatTek)
- Tissue batch number(s): 23388

TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: 25min at room temperature, 35min in the incubator at 37°C
- Temperature of post-treatment incubation (if applicable): 37°C (app. 42h)

REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
The tissues were washed with sterile PBS to remove residual test material 1 hour after start of application. Rinsed tissues were blotted on sterile absorbent paper and transferred into new 6-well plates, pre-filled with 0.9 mL fresh medium. When all tissues were rinsed, the surface of each tissue was carefully dried with a sterile cotton swab.
