**relative absorbance: = 100 x (absorbance of test item)/ (absorbance of negative control)

The optical evaluation of the MTT-reducing capacity of the test item after one hour incubation with MTT-reagent did not show evidence of a blue colour and thereby was not considered to be a MTT reducer.

The test item D-100 is considered to be non-corrosive to skin:

- since the viability after 3 minutes exposure is greater than 50 % and

- the viability after 1 hour exposure is greater than 15%.

Executive summary:

This in vitro study was performed to assess the corrosive potential of D-100 by means of the Human Skin Model Test. Independent duplicate tissues of the human skin model EST-1000™ were exposed to the test item, the negative control or the positive control for 3 minutes and 1 hour, respectively. About 25 mg of the solid test material were applied to the tissues and wetted with 50 μL deionised water. A volume of 50 μL of either the negative control (deionised water) or the positive control (8.0 N KOH) was applied to each tissue. After exposure to the negative control the absorbance values exceeded the required acceptability criterion of mean OD570 ≥ 0.8 for both treatment intervals thereby confirming the acceptable quality of the tissues. Exposure to the positive control induced a decrease in the relative absorbance as compared to the negative control, both for the 3 minutes exposure period and for the 1 hour exposure period thus confirming the validity of the test system. After exposure to the test item D-100 the relative absorbance values decreased to 72.7% after 3 minutes. After the 1 hour exposure relative absorbance values were reduced to

80.7%. Nevertheless, both values are well above the threshold of 50% for the 3 minutes exposure and above 15% for the 1 hour exposure. Therefore, the test item was considered to be not corrosive. In conclusion, it can be stated that in this study and under the reported experimental conditions, the test item D-100 was non corrosive to skin according to UN GHS / EU CLP Cat.1 / DSD (67/548/EEC).
