Individual and group mean scores for ocular irritation are given in Table 1 and Table 2 (attached background material)
No corneal effects were noted during the study.
Iridial inflammation was not noted during the study.
Moderate conjunctival irritation was noted in all treated eyes at one, 24 and 48 hours after treatment with minimal conjunctival irritation noted at the 72 hour observation mark in 2 out of the 3 animals. - Other effects:
- Body weight
All animals showed expected gain in bodyweight during the study.
Any other information on results incl. tables
No clinical signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the study and no mortality occurred.
Irritation:
The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation) for each animal for corneal opacity, iris, redness and chemosis od the conjunctivae, separately. The individual mean scores for corneal opacity and iris were 0 for all 3 animals. The individual mean scores for the conjunctivae were 1.33, t 72 hours treatment.
Slight to moderate occular discharge was observed in all animals at the 1 -hour reading.
No abnormal findings were observed in the treated eye of any animals 7 days after treatment, the end of the observation period for all animals.
Coloration:
No staining of the treated eyes produced by the test item was observed
Corrosion:
No corrosion of the cornea was observed at any of the reading times.
Body weights:
The body weights of all rabbits were considered to be within the normal range of variability.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Based upon the referred classification (Commission Directive 2001/59/EC of August 06, 2001), 2-(2'Vinyloxy ethoxy) ethyl acrylate is considered to be "not irritating" to the rabbit eye.
- Executive summary:
Eye irritation:
The Primary eye irritation potential of 2 -(2'-Vinyloxy ethosy) ethyl acrylate was investigated according to OECD guideline test no. 405. The test item was applied by instillation of 0.1mL 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 after test item instillation.
The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring items (24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation) for each animal for corneal opacity, iris, redness and chemosis of the conjuctivae, separately. The individual mean scores for corneal opacity and iris were 0 for all three animals. The individual mean scores for the conjuctivae were 1.33, 1.33 and 1.00 for reddening and 0, 0 and 0.33 for chemosis respectively.
The instillation of 2 -(2'-Vinyloxyethoxy) ethyl acrylate into the eye resulted in mild, early onset and transient occular changes, such as reddening of the conjuctivae and sclerae, discharge and chemosis. These effects were reversible and were no longer evident 7 days after treatment, the end of the observation period for all animals. No abnormal findings were observed in the cornea or iris 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 other clinical signs of test item related effects were observed.
Thus, the test item did not induce significant or irreversible damage to the rabbit eye.
Based upon the referred classification criteria (Commission Directive 2001/59/EC of August 06, 2001), 2 -(2'-Vinyloxy ethoxy) ethyl acrylate is considered to be "not irritating" to the rabbit eye.
