In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
human
Cell type:
non-transformed keratinocytes
Cell source:
other: EpiDermTM (EPI-200-SIT)
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on test system:
RECONSTRUCTED HUMAN EPIDERMIS (RHE) TISSUE
- Model used: EpiDerm™(EPI-200-SIT) (MatTek In Vitro Life Science Laboratories, Bratislava)
- Tissue batch number(s): 30808
- Delivery date: 23. Jul. 2019

TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: 37 ± 1°C
- Temperature of post-treatment incubation (if applicable): 37 ± 1°C

REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
-Volume and number of washing steps: The inserts were removed from the plates using sterile forceps and rinsed immediately in 1-minute-intervals.

MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: 1 mg/mL
- Incubation time: 3 h
- Spectrophotometer: M icrotiter plate photometer Anthos Reader 2010 Flexi, Anthos Microsysteme GmbH
- Wavelength: 570 nm

FUNCTIONAL MODEL CONDITIONS WITH REFERENCE TO HISTORICAL DATA
- Viability: The quality of the EpiDerm™ tissue was assessed by an MTT cell viability test. The determined OD (540 - 570 nm) was 1.841 ± 0.032 (acceptance criteria: 1.0 - 3.0).
- Barrier function: The barrier function was assessed by determination of the exposure time required to reduce tissue viability by 50% (ET-50) upon application of 100 µL of 1% Triton X-100. The ET-50 value was determined to be 6.26 h (acceptance criteria: 4.77-8.72 h).
- Contamination: The cells used to produce EpiDerm™ tissue are screened for potential biological contaminants. Tests for the following potential biological contaminant were performed: HIV-1 virus (Oligonucleotide-direct amplification), Hepatitis B virus (Oligonucleotide-direct amplification), Hepatitis C virus (Oligonucleotide-direct amplification), Bacteria, yeast, and other fungi (long term antibiotic, antimycotic free culture); no contaminations detected.
- Reproducibility: given

CONTROL TISSUES USED IN CASE OF MTT DIRECT INTERFERENCE
- Direct MTT reduction by the test item had not taken place and no data correction was necessary.

NUMBER OF INDEPENDENT TEST SEQUENCES / EXPERIMENTS TO DERIVE FINAL PREDICTION: 1 experiment

PREDICTION MODEL / DECISION CRITERIA (choose relevant statement)
- The test substance is considered to be corrosive / irritant to skin if the tissue viability after 1 h is equal or less than 50%
- The test substance is considered to be non-irritant to skin if the tissue viability after 1 h exposure is greater than 50%
Control samples:
yes, concurrent negative control
yes, concurrent positive control
Amount/concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied: 30 µL

NEGATIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied: 30 µL

POSITIVE CONTROL
- Amount(s) applied: 30 µL
- Concentration (if solution): 5%
Duration of treatment / exposure:
35 min at 37°C and 25 min at RT
Duration of post-treatment incubation (if applicable):
42 h
Number of replicates:
triplicates for each treatment and control group

Results and discussion

Results
Irritation / corrosion parameter:
% tissue viability
Remarks:
mean value of 3 tissues
Run / experiment:
1 h exposure
Value:
106.4
Vehicle controls validity:
not applicable
Negative controls validity:
valid
Positive controls validity:
valid
Remarks on result:
no indication of irritation
Other effects / acceptance of results:
- OTHER EFFECTS:
- Direct-MTT reduction: Direct MTT reduction by the test item had not taken place and no data correction was necessary.
- Colour interference with MTT: The solution was colourless, therefore no binding capacity had to be tested.

ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
- Acceptance criteria met for negative control: The mean OD of the tissue replicates treated with the negative control was ≥ 0.8 and ≤ 2.8 for every exposure time (values between 1.429 and 1.658).
- Acceptance criteria met for positive control: The mean viability of the tissue replicates treated with the positive control for 1 hour was ≤ 20% compared to the negative control (3.1%).
- Acceptance criteria met for variability between replicate measurements: The SD of mean viability of the tissue replicates is ≤ 18% (values between 0.1% and 9.8%).
- Range of historical values if different from the ones specified in the test guideline: The mean OD of the tissue replicates treated with the negative control of all experiments up to 03. Jul. 2019 was 0.476 - 2.471 (mean: 1.787, SD 0.317).
