Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the test material induced mild to moderate irritation being reversible within 7 days. Therefore, the test material is not classified as irritant to the eyes.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study performed similarly to OECD guideline No. 405, 0.1 g of undiluted test material was instilled into the right eye of 6 albino rabbits while the left eye remained untreated and served as control. The eyes were not rinsed after the instillation of test material. Animals were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after instillation of test material into eyes and then on Days 5 and 7. The reactions in the conjunctivae (redness, chemosis and discharge), the iris and the cornea (opacity and area involved) were scored according to the grading system outlined in the “Illustrated Guide for Grading Eye Irritation by Hazardous material”.

The calculated mean score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were 2 / 1.33 / 1.33 / 2 / 1.33 / 1.33 for redness, 2 / 1.33 / 2.33 / 2.33 / 1.33 / 1.67 for chemosis, 0/0/0/0/0/0 for iris lesions and for corneal opacity.

The observed conjunctival reactions were fully reversible within 7 days. Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified as irritating to the eyes according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP).

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for eye irritation endpoint.
