Constituent 1
- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- batch No.of test material: A14-Q0201
STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: room temperature
- Stability under test conditions: yes
TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
- Treatment of test material prior to testing: The solid test substance was ground with pestle and mortar before application
Test animals / tissue source
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- SOURCE OF COLLECTED EYES
- Source: The test system is the isolated bovine cornea. Bovine eyes are obtained as a by-product of freshly slaughtered cattle.
-Supplier: Schlachthof Mannheim, Schlachthofstr. 21, 68165 Mannheim, Germany
- Number of animals:
- Characteristics of donor animals: age of the animals: minimum 12 months, maximum 60 months
- Storage, temperature and transport conditions of ocular tissue (e.g. transport time, transport media and temperature, and other conditions):
- Time interval prior to initiating testing:
- indication of any existing defects or lesions in ocular tissue samples: only corneas free of defects (opacity, scratches, pigmentation etc.) were used
- Indication of any antibiotics used:
Test system
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- yes
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 200 mg of undiluted solid test substance
CONTROLS
- 750 µL of NC or PC were applied using a pipette
Because the test substance could not be removed using a syringe, the epithelium was rinsed with the open chamber method. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 4 hours at 32°C in horizontal position
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3 corneas per treatment group
- Details on study design:
- SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF CORNEAS
Corneas free of defects (opacity, scratches, pigmentation etc.) were dissected with a 2 to 3 mm rim of sclera. Isolated corneas were mounted in cornea holders that consists of anterior and posterior chambers. Both chambers were filled to excess with pre-warmed Eagles’s MEM (without phenol red) and then equilibrated in a vertical position at about 32 °C for at least 1 hour
QUALITY CHECK OF THE ISOLATED CORNEAS: Yes
NUMBER OF REPLICATES: 3
NEGATIVE CONTROL USED: Yes, de-ionized water
POSITIVE CONTROL USED: Yes, Imidazole as 20% solution in de-ionized water
APPLICATION DOSE AND EXPOSURE TIME: 200 mg for 4 hours
TREATMENT METHOD: closed chamber
POST-INCUBATION PERIOD: No
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Number of washing steps after exposure period: corneas exposed to the NC and PC were removed from the anterior chamber using a syringe and the epithelium was washed at least 3 times with Eagle’s MEM (containing phenol red) and once with Eagle’s MEM (without phenol red); both chambers were then refilled with fresh Eagle’s MEM (without phenol red).
Because the test substance could not be removed using a syringe, the epithelium was rinsed with the open chamber method
METHODS FOR MEASURED ENDPOINTS:
- Corneal opacity: Before measurement, each cornea was observed visually and observations were recorded. Final corneal opacity readings were taken for each cornea with an opacitometer.
- Corneal permeability: passage of sodium fluorescein dye measured with the aid of UV/VIS spectrophotometry; (OD490)
- Others (histopathology): After determination of opacity and permeability, corneas were fixed in 4% formaldeyhde for further histotechnical
processing and examination by light microscopy
SCORING SYSTEM: In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS)
DECISION CRITERIA:
IVIS Prediction
< 1.5 No classification for eye irritation1
1.5 – 4.5 Borderline
> 4.5; < 45 No prediction can be made for eye irritation, further testing with another
suitable method is required1,2
45 - 65 Borderline
> 65 Ocular corrosive
