Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
100 mg of the test substance was applied into the concunctival sac of the left eye of each of 2 rabbits. After one minute the left eye of one of the two rabbits was rinsed with physiological saline. The right eyes of each of the two rabbits served as control. The animals were observed for 7 days.

Results
Irritation parameter:
other: irritational effects
Basis:
mean
Time point:
other: up to 8h
Score:
1
Max. score:
4
Reversibility:
fully reversible within: 24 hours
Remarks on result:
other: slight conjunctival injections which do not lead to classification
Irritant / corrosive response data:
After 4 hours and after 8 hours slight conjunctival injections and slight discharge was observed. Within 24 hours both left treated eyes cleared and dis charge ceased wether it was rinsed eye or not-rinsed eye. Fluorescein test was without finding.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information
Executive summary:

100 mg of the test substance was applied into the concunctival sac of the left eye of each of 2 rabbits. After one minute the left eye of one of the two rabbits was rinsed with physiological saline. The right eyes of each of the two rabbits served as control. The animals were observed for 7 days. Four hours and 8 hours post application slight irritating effects were observed which were fully reversible within 24 hours, thus, not leading to classification. In addition, Fluorescein Test was without finding. Therefore, the overall evaluation is that Macrolex Rot is not irritating to the eyes of rabbits.
