Transferability and Reproducibility of the HepaRG CometChip Assay.

ABSTRACT: This interlaboratory evaluation of HepaRG CometChip was conducted to assess transferability and reproducibility of this new approach methodology (NAM) across four laboratories. Concentrations inducing up to ~70% relative cytotoxicity were determined by the organizing laboratory, and frozen chemical formulation blocks were sent to each participant. When noncytotoxic, 10 mM was the maximum dose. Cultures were exposed once daily for three consecutive days, and both cytotoxicity assessment, via ATP quantification, and comet analysis, commenced 3-4 h after initiation of the final exposure. Positive response was statistical pairwise significance (p < 0.05) with concentration-related increases in %Tail DNA across ≥ 2 consecutive exposures. For 8 of 11 compounds, all four labs generated unanimous
