- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Injection of the conjunctival blood vessels, a crimson-red or a beefy-red appearance was apparent in all cases throught the first week of observations; injection of the conjunctival blood vessels was stilll apparent at the end of the observation period in two animals. Moderate discharge was present in all animals with slight chemosis one hour after instillation.
Instillation of the test material gave rise to a moderate initial pain response in the sentinel animal, local ocular anaesthesia was employed for the subsequent animals. An apparent moderate initial pain response was also noted for these animals, however, since anaesthesia had been administered prior to test substance instillation, it is considered that these reactions were responses toward the physical instillation of dose rather than to a pain stimuli. - Other effects:
- There was no sign of toxicity or ill health in any rabbit during the observation period.
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The substance cause irreversible reactions in conjunctiva of two animals.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the eye irritation potential of HEAA to the rabbit, according to OECD Guideline 405, under GLP.
The substance cause irreversible reactions in conjunctiva of two animals.

Additional information
Skin Irritation:
The study was performed to assess the skin irritation potential of HEAA to the rabbit, according to OECD Guideline 404, under GLP. No dermal irritation was observed following a single semi-occlusive application of HEAA to intact rabbit skin for four hours.

Justification for classification or non-classification
Skin irritation / corrosion:
In vivo skin irritation, key study, OECD 404:
Mean score for erythema at 24, 48, 72 h for 3 tested animals: 0, 0, 0
Mean score for edema at 24, 48, 72 h for 3 tested animals: 0, 0, 0
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, table 3.2.2, this substance should not be classified for this endpoint.
Eye irritation:
In vivo eye irritation, key study, OECD 405:
Mean scores for cornea opacity, iris, conjunctivae and chemosis at 24, 48, and 72h:
cornea opacity: 0, 0, 0;
iris: 0, 0, 0;
conjunctivae: 2, 2, 1.3;
chemosis: 0, 0, 0.
The reactions on conjunctiva were irreversible in two animals till dady 22.
According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, table 3.3.1, considering in two animals effects on conjunctiva not fully reversed within 21 days, this substance should be classified as Category 1 Irreversible effects on eyes.
