In vitro test system

Test system:
human skin model
Source species:
human
Cell type:
non-transformed keratinocytes
Cell source:
other: EpiDermTM tissue
Details on animal used as source of test system:
The test system is a commercially available EpiDermTM-Kit, procured by MatTek.
The EpiDermTM tissue consists of human-derived epidermal keratinocytes which have been cultured to form a multi-layered, highly differentiated model of the human epidermis. It consists of organized basal, spinous and granular layers, and a multi-layered stratum corneum containing intercellular lamellar lipid layers representing main lipid classes analogous to those found in vivo. The EpiDermTM tissues are cultured on specially pre-pared cell culture inserts.
Control samples:
yes, concurrent negative control
yes, concurrent positive control

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item (di-p-tolylphosphoryl)(mesityl)methanone is considered non- irritant to skin in the Reconstructed human Epidermis (RhE) Test Method.
Executive summary:

One valid experiment was performed.
Three tissues of the human skin model EpiDermTM were treated with the test item for 60 minutes.
The test item was applied directly to each tissue and spread to match the tissue size (0.63 cm2; as indicated by the supplier).
DPBS-buffer was used as negative control and 5 % SDS solution was used as positive control.
After treatment with the negative control, the mean absorbance value was within the re-quired acceptability criterion of 0.8 ≤ mean OD ≤ 2.8, OD was 1.642.
The positive control showed clear irritating effects. The mean value of relative tissue via-bility was reduced to 2.8 % (required:  20 %).
The variation within the tissue replicates of negative control, positive control and test item was acceptable (required: ≤ 18 %).


After the treatment with the test item, the mean value of relative tissue viability was re-duced to 93.6 %. This value is above the threshold for skin irritation potential (50 %). Test items that induce values above the threshold of 50 % are considered non- irritant to skin.


Therefore, the test item (di-p-tolylphosphoryl)(mesityl)methanone is considered non- irritant to skin in the Reconstructed human Epidermis (RhE) Test Method.
