Constituent 1
Test animals / tissue source
- Species:
- other: Bos primigenius Taurus (fresh bovine corneas)
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- Fresh bovine eyes were obtained from the slaughterhouse Müller Fleisch GmbH, Enzstr. 2-4, 75217 Birkenfeld, Germany, on the day of the test. The cattle were between 12 and 60 months old. The eyes were transported to the test facility in Hanks’ Balanced Salt Solution with 1% Penicillin-Streptomycin solution (Penicillin 100 U/mL, Streptomycin 100 µg/mL) in a suitable cooled container within 1 hour.
Test system
- Vehicle:
- Hank's balanced salt solution
- Controls:
- yes, concurrent positive control
- yes, concurrent negative control
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Exposure time on the corneas was 4 hours at 32 ± 1 °C
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- After the initial incubation, the medium was changed and the baseline opacity for each cornea was recorded. None of the corneas showed tissue damage; therefore, all corneas were used. For each treatment group (negative control solution, test item and positive control solution), three replicates were used. After removal of the pre-incubation medium (cMEM without phenol red), 750 µL negative control solution, a defined amount of test item (see table 7.3-a) and 750 µL positive control solution were applied to each replicate.
According to the characteristics of the test item, the following treatment procedure was performed:
1. Open Chamber Method
In order to apply the test item, the nut was unscrewed to remove the glass disc. Then, the test item could be applied directly on the cornea.
The following amounts of the test item were tested neat and applied directly on the cornea using a weighing funnel:
Table a Amounts of Test Item
Replicate Amount
1 206.6 mg
2 216.9 mg
3 211.8 mg
The test item was given on the epithelium in such a manner that the cornea was completely covered with test item.
Exposure time on the corneas was 4 hours at 32 ± 1 °C. After thorough rinsing with cMEM with phenol red and final rinsing with cMEM without phenol red, both chambers were filled with cMEM without phenol red, and the final opacity value of each cornea was recorded.
2. Permeability Test
After the recording of the final opacity value, the cMEM without phenol red was removed from the front chamber, and 1 mL sodium fluorescein solution was added to the front chamber for the detection of permeability of the corneas.
For the open chamber method, a sodium fluorescein solution with a concentration of 5 mg/mL was used.
The chambers were then closed again and incubated for 90 minutes at 32 ± 1 °C. After incubation, the content of the posterior chamber was thoroughly mixed. Then, its optical density at 492 nm was measured with the microtiter plate photometer.

- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the test item[3R-(3α, 3aβ,6α,7β,8aα)]-octahydro-3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-1H-3a,7-methanoazulen-6-ol(Cedrol)showed no effects on the cornea of the bovine eye. The calculated mean IVIS was 1.30.
According to OECD Guideline no. 437 (Oct. 2017), a substance with an IVIS ≤ 3 requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage. - Executive summary:
One valid experiment was performed.
Bovine corneas were used. They were collected from slaughtered cattle that were between 12 and 60 months old.
The test item[3R-(3α, 3aβ,6α,7β,8aα)]-octahydro-3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-1H-3a,7-methanoazulen-6-ol (Cedrol)was applied onto the cornea of a bovine eye which had been previously incubated with cMEM without phenol red at 32 ± 1 °C for 1 hour and whose opacity had been measured.
The test item was incubated on the cornea for 4 hours at 32 ± 1 °C. After removal of the test item, opacity and permeability values were measured.
Hank’s Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) was used as negative control. The negative control showed no irritating effect on the cornea and the calculated mean IVIS (In VitroIrritancy Score) was 0.92.
20% imidazole solution was used as positive control. The positive control induced serious eye damage on the cornea and was within two standard deviations of the current historical mean. The calculated mean IVIS was 103.09.
Under the conditions of this study, the test item[3R-(3α, 3aβ,6α,7β,8aα)]-octahydro-3,6,8,8-tetramethyl-1H-3a,7-methanoazulen-6-ol(Cedrol)showed no effects on the cornea of the bovine eye. The calculated mean IVIS was 1.30.
According to OECD Guideline no. 437 (Oct. 2017), a substance with an IVIS ≤ 3 requires no classification for eye irritation or serious eye damage.
