Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Isomenthone shall not be classified as eye irritating.
Executive summary:

The eye irritant effect of Isomenthone was investigated according to the method recommended in the OECD TG 405, "Acute Eye Irritation/Corrosion", Feb. 1987, and EEC Guideline B.5 "Acute Toxicity (Eye Irritation)", Jan. 1997. Four female albino rabbits were exposed to 0.1 mL of the test article in the left eye. The eyes were examined and the changes were graded according to a numerical scale one hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours as well as day 7 after dosing. Slight to well-defined signs of irritation were observed an the treated eyes. No significant eye irritation according to CLP Regulation was observed in the tested animals from mean scores following their grading at 24, 48 and 72 hours after installation of the test material. On day 7 all animals were free of any signs of eye irritation. Therefore Isomenthone shall not be classified as eye irritating.
