IN VITRO EFFICACY STUDY: in vitro evaluation of the penetration potential through reconstructed human epidermis of
two active ingredients.
1.2 Scopo dello studio | Study aim
Lo scopo del test è la valutazione del potenziale di penetrazione del Betametasone e del Calcipotriolo contenuti in un
prodotto medicinale attraverso un modello di epidermide umana ricostruita in vitro. Lo studio è stato eseguito per la
valutazione sperimentale del potenziale di penetrazione attraverso l'epidermide umana in vitro (modello specifico per
la destinazione d'uso del prodotto).
Lo studio di penetrazione è effettuato secondo i principi generali dell'OCDE TG 428.
The purpose of the test is the evaluation of the penetration potential of the Betamethasone and Calcipotriol contained
in a medical product through an in vitro reconstructed human epidermis model. The study was performed for the
experimental evaluation of penetration potential through the in vitro human epidermis (specific model for product
destination of use).
The penetration study is performed following the general principles of OECD TG 428.

The quantity of product to apply on the tissue surface was chosen according to product information and to the
experimental method used. 50 mg of product were applied on tissue surface in single application for 4 hours exposure
of treatment.
The test was performed in triplicate.
An appropriate number of well plates are filled with 900 μL maintenance culture medium.
Using sterile forceps, tissues are taken off from the agarose, the bottom of the insert is cleaned on sterile absorbent
paper or gauze to remove eventual remaining agarose pieces. The tissues are transferred on fresh medium by first
sloping the insert before complete insert setting at the air-liquid interface. Tissues are placed at 37°C, 5% CO2 until test
substance application.
produce una reazione colorimetrica con intensità proporzionale alla quantità di complessi immuni presenti e quindi
alla quantità di molecola target legata. La determinazione quantitativa sfrutta una curva di calibrazione costruita con
concentrazioni note e crescenti di marker standard.
At the end of treatments, the media underlying the tissues of human reconstructed epidermis, homogenates and
washing solutions were collected.
Analytical dosages were performed on the media, homogenates and washing solutions to quantify the amount of the
active ingredients Betamethasone and Calcipotriol contained in the test item, penetrated and released into the
underlying medium; penetrated and not released by the epidermis; and to quantify the amount of substances not
penetrated through the epidermis.
Commercially available ELISA kits are used. ELISA kits use the competitive binding between an antigen and its primary
antibody. The immune complex (antigen-antibody) was bond by a secondary antibody conjugated to a peroxidase. The
addition of the enzyme substrate gives a colorimetric reaction with intensity proportional to the immune complex
presence, and so to the target molecule.
The quantitative determination uses a calibration curve made-up of standard known and growing concentrations of
standard marker.
On the basis of the experimental data obtained and the volume of applied product (50 mg), the quantity of substance
penetrated through the epidermis was calculated.
The results are expressed as mean amount of Betamethasone and Calcipotriol penetrated through the epidermis and
released into the underlying medium and as percentage of penetration compared to the amount of product applied on
the tissue surface.
