-Breeder: Elevage Cunicole de Val de Selle, 80160 Prouzel, France.
-Number of animals and identification: three animals were used, as recommended by the international regulations and taking into account that a good correlation of results can be obtained with either three or six animals. The animals were identified individually with a metal tag in the ear.
-Weight: on the day of treatment, the animals had a mean body weight ± standard deviation of 2.5 ± 0.2 kg.
-Acclimatization: at least five days before the beginning of the study.
Environmental conditions
During the acclimatization period and during the main test, the environmental conditions in the animal room were set as follows:
-temperature: 18 ± 3°C
-relative humidity: 30 to 70%
-light/dark cycle: 12 hl12 h
The temperature and relative humidity were recorded continuously and records retained.
The housing conditions (temperature, relative humidity and light/dark cycle) were checked
regularly.The animals were housed individually in polystyrene cages (35 cm x 55 cm x 32 cm or
48.2 cm x 58 cm x 36.5 cm). Each cage was equipped with a food container and a water bottle.
Food and water
All the animals had free access to 112 C pelleted diet (U.A.R., 91360 Villemoisson-sur-Orge, France). Each batch of food was analysed (composition and contaminants) by the supplier. Drinking water filtered by a F.G. Millipore membrane (0.22 micron) was provided ad libitum. Bacteriological and chemical analysis of the water and detection of possible contaminants (pesticides, heavy metals and nitrosamines) are performed periodically. Results ar archived at C.I.T. It was verified that no contaminants in the diet or water at levels likely to influence the outcome of the study were present. - Type of coverage:

- Preparation of test site:
- other: unabraded
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- other: each animal served as its own control, untreated sites
- Amount / concentration applied:
- A single dose of 0.5 ml of the test substance was applied to a 6 cm2 dry gauze pad (Semes France, 54183 Heillecourt, France) which was then applied to the right (application for four hours) or the left flank (application for three minutes) of the animals. The test substance and the gauze pad were held in contact with the skin by means of an adhesive hypoallergenic aerated semi-occlusive dressing (Laboratoires de Pansements et d'Hygiene,
21300 Chenove, France) and a restraining bandage (Laboratoires 3M Sante, 92245 Malakoff, France). After removal of the dressing, any residual test substance was wiped off by means of a dry gauze pad
The untreated skin served as control.
. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 4 hours
- Observation period:
- three minutes, one hour, 24 hr, 48 hr, 72 hr
- Number of animals:
- three
- Details on study design:
- Preparation and selection of the animals
The day before treatment, the flanks of each animal were clipped using electric clippers. The skin of each animal was examined in order to use only
animals without any signs of cutaneous irritation. Animals showing signs of cutaneous irritation, cutaneous defects or pre-existing dermal injury
were not used.
Study design
The study design was established according to available information on the test substance and following the O.E.C.D. and E.C. guidelines. As possible irritant effects were anticipated, a first assay was conducted with one animal. The duration of exposure was three minutes on one flank and four
hours on the other flank. Since the test substance was not strongly irritant in this first assay, it was then applied for four hours in two other animals in second assay.
Application of the test substance
The test substance was used in its original form.
A single dose of 0.5 ml of the test substance was applied to a 6 cm2 dry gauze pad (Semes France, 54183 Heillecourt, France) which was then applied to the right (application for four hours) or the left flank (application for three minutes) of the animals. The test substance and the gauze pad were heldin contact with the skin by means of an adhesive hypoallergenic aerated semi-occlusive dressing (Laboratoires de Pansements et d'Hygiene, 21300 Chenove, France) and a restraining bandage (Laboratoires 3M Sante, 92245 Malakoff, France). After removal of the dressing, any residual test substance was wiped off by means of a dry gauze pad. The untreated skin served as control. - Irritation parameter:

- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.1 mL of di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) was withdrawn with a syringe and applied undiluted. The test item was applied at 0.1 mL/animal, the dose specified in the test guidelines for a liquid test item.
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Single exposure.
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 7 (animal no. 70 and 72) or 10 days (animal no. 71), respectively
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3 (1 male and 2 females)
- Details on study design:
- Di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) was used as delivered by the Sponsor.
The pH of the test item was measured from an aliquot of the test item, before the study initiation date. By using pH strips, the pH was found to be 4-5.
According to Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 B.5. and OECD Guidelines 405, a test item is not required to be tested if the pH-value is less than 2 or greater than 11.5, owing to its predictable corrosive properties.
The eyes of the animals were examined one day prior to test item administration.
0.1 mL of di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) was withdrawn with a syringe and applied undiluted. The test item was applied at 0.1 mL/animal, the dose specified in the test guidelines for a liquid test item.
The test item was placed in the conjunctival sac of the left eye of each animal after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for about one second to prevent loss of test item. The right eye remained untreated and served as the reference control.
A single animal (one female) was treated first. As neither a corrosive effect nor a severe irritant effect was observed after the 1- and 24-hour examinations, the test was completed using the two remaining animals.
Rationale: The application form and dose were used to detect an irritating potential of the test item applied. - Irritation parameter:

- The instillation of di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) into the eye resulted in mild, early-onset and transient ocular changes, such as slight to moderate reddening of the conjunctivae and slight to moderate reddening of the sclerae. Also, slight swelling of the conjunctivae and slight ocular discharge was noted, although exclusively 1 hour after instillation. All effects were reversible and were no longer evident 7 days after treatment. No abnormal findings were observed in the cornea or for the iris light reflex of any animal at any of the examinations. No corrosion was observed at any of the measuring intervals. No staining of the treated eyes by the test item was observed and no clinical signs were observed.

- Conclusions:
- Based upon the referred classification criteria (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) is not classified with respect to eye irritation in rabbits.
- Executive summary:
The primary eye irritation potential of di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) was investigated according to OECD test guideline no. 405. The test item was applied by instillation of 0.1 mL into the left eye of each of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. Scoring of irritation effects was performed approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours as well as 7 days (all animals) or 10 days (just one animal) after test item instillation.
The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation) for each animal for corneal opacity, iris light reflex and redness and chemosis of the conjunctivae. The individual mean scores for corneal opacity and iris light reflex were 0.00 for all three animals. The individual mean scores for the conjunctivae were 1.00, 0.67 and 0.00 for reddening and 0.00, 0.00 and 0.00 for chemosis, respectively.
The instillation of di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) into the eye resulted in mild, early-onset and transient ocular changes, such as reddening and swelling of the conjunctivae, ocular discharge and reddening of the sclerae. These effects were reversible and were no longer evident 7 days after treatment. No abnormal findings were observed in the cornea or for the iris light reflex of any animal at any of the examinations. No corrosion was observed at any of the measuring intervals. No staining of the treated eyes by the test item was observed and no clinical signs were observed.
Thus, the test item did not induce significant or irreversible damage to the rabbit eye.
Based upon the referred classification criteria (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008), di-tert-butyl 3,3,5-trimethylcyclohexylidene diperoxide (CAS# 6731-36-8) is not classified with respect to eye irritation in rabbits.
