unchanged (no vehicle)

Details on test system:

RECONSTRUCTED HUMAN EPIDERMIS (RHE) TISSUE
- Model used: EpiSkin, EPISKIN SNC Lyon, France
- Tissue batch number: 20-EKIN-008

TEMPERATURE USED FOR TEST SYSTEM
- Temperature used during treatment / exposure: room temperature

REMOVAL OF TEST MATERIAL AND CONTROLS
- Volume and number of washing steps: 25 mL PBS 1 x solution
- Observable damage in the tissue due to washing: no

MTT DYE USED TO MEASURE TISSUE VIABILITY AFTER TREATMENT / EXPOSURE
- MTT concentration: 0.3 mg/mL in saline buffer
- Incubation time: 3 hours (± 15 min) at 37±1°C in an incubator with 5±1 % CO2, protected from light, ≥95 % humidified atmosphere.
- Spectrophotometer: Thermo Scientific; Multiscan FC
- Wavelength: 570 nm

FUNCTIONAL MODEL CONDITIONS
- Morphology: Adult human-derived epidermal keratinocytes are seeded on a dermal substitute consisting of a collagen type I matrix coated with type IV collagen. A highly differentiated and stratified epidermis model is obtained after a 13-day culture period comprising the main basal, supra basal, spinous and granular layers and a functional stratum corneum
- Contamination: All biological components of the epidermis and the kit culture medium have been tested for the presence of viruses, bacteria and mycoplasma.

NUMBER OF REPLICATE TISSUES: 2

CONTROL TISSUES USED IN CASE OF MTT DIRECT INTERFERENCE
- killed tissues
- Procedure used to prepare the killed tissues: Water-killed epidermis
Place the living epidermis in a 12 well plate with 2 mL of distilled water (replacing the culture medium).Incubate at 37 °C, 5 % CO2, ≥ 95 % humidified atmosphere for 48 hrs +/- 1 hour. At the end of the incubation, discard the water. Keep dead epidermis frozen (dry) in freezer at -15 °C to -30 °C (killed epidermis can be stored and used up to 6 months). Before use, the killed tissues are de-frozen at room temperature (approx. 1 hour in 2 mL of maintenance medium).
- N. of replicates: 2
- Method of calculation used: As indictaed in guideline.
