Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item was considered to be corrosive to the skin. EU CLP/UN GHS: H314/Category 1A. UN packing group I.
Executive summary:

The aim of this study is to evaluate the skin corrosion potential of the test item, EK195.

The test item was applied for three minutes and one hour to the EpiDerm™ three-dimensional human skin model. The model consisted of normal, human-derived epidermal keratinocytes, which had been cultured on 0.6 cm2 inserts to form a multilayered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis with a functional multilayered stratum corneum. The cell viability of the multi layers was determined by mitochondrial dehydrogenase activity assessed by the reduction of MTT (3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide) to a soluble, coloured, formazan product. The formazan produced was quantified by spectrophotometric measurement. The prediction model uses the percentage viability values (compared to negative control viability) at three minute and one hour exposure times to identify corrosive and non-corrosive items.

The test item, EK195, elicited a mean tissue viability of 23.9% for three minute contact and 6.7% for one hour contact and was predicted as corrosive in the EpiDerm™ skin corrosivity test.
