Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

The test item O-METHYL-L-DIIODOTHYRONIN is considered to be non-irritant to skin and is therefore not classified (UN GHS No Category).

Executive summary:

EpiSkinTM SM test of O-METHYL-L-DIIODOTHYRONIN has been performed to predict its irritation potential by measurement of its cytotoxic effect, as reflected in the MTT assay, according to the OECD Test Guideline No. 439, 28 July 2015.

Disks of EPISKIN (three units) were treated with test item and incubated for 15 minutes (± 0.5 min) at room temperature. Exposure of test material was terminated by rinsing with PBS 1x solution. Epidermis units were then incubated at 37±1°C for 42 hours (± 1h) in an incubator with 5±1% CO2, ≥ 95% humidified atmosphere. The viability of each disk was assessed by incubating the tissues for 3 hours (± 5 min) with MTT solution at 37±1°C in 5±1% CO2, ≥ 95% humidified atmosphere, protected from light. The precipitated formazan was then extracted using acidified isopropanol and quantified spectrophotometrically.

SDS (5% aq.) and 1×PBS treated (three units / positive and negative control) epidermis were used as positive and negative controls respectively. For each treated tissue viability was expressed as a percentage relative to negative control.

The test chemical is identified as requiring classification and labelling according to UN GHS (Category 2 or Category 1), if the mean relative viability after 15 minutes exposure and 42 hours post incubation is less or equal (≤) to 50% of the negative control.

In this in vitro skin irritation test using the EPISKIN model, the test item O-METHYL-L-DIIODOTHYRONIN did not show significantly reduced cell viability in comparison to the negative control (mean value: 110 %). All obtained test item viability results were above 50 % when compared to the viability values obtained from the negative control. Therefore the test item was considered to be non-irritant to skin.

Positive and negative controls showed the expected cell viability values within acceptable limits. The experiment was considered to be valid.

The results obtained from this in vitro skin irritation test, using the EPISKIN model, indicated that the test item reveals no skin irritation potential under the utilised testing conditions. The test item O-METHYL-L-DIIODOTHYRONIN is considered to be non-irritant to skin and is therefore not classified (UN GHS No Category).
