Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Protocol published at official journal of French Republic (Official journal of 24 october 1984)
Version / remarks:
Protocol has some similarities with OECD guideline 405.
Deviations:
not specified
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Unique instillation of a precise dose of the product in right conjunctival sac of 6 animals, left eye is acting as control.
Animals are observed at 1 hour, D1, D2, D3 up to D7.
If no reaction is visible at D2, the observation is stopped at D3.
Calculation of the ocular index after summing according to the scale in the following charts for each animal on the cornea, iris, cunjunctive areas.
GLP compliance:
no
Remarks:
GLP not mandatory at this date

Irritant / corrosive response data:
At 48h, the following results are obtained :
- A corneal opacity mean score >=1.0 was observed in 3 animals
- A conjunctival redness (enanthema) mean score >= 2.0 was observed in all animals
- A conjunctival oedema (chemosis) mean score >= 2.0 was observed only in 1 animal
Effects are fully reversible within on Day-5

The OI (Ocular Index) max has a value of 40, whereas the O.I.48h has a value of 12.66

According to criteria set in the official journal of French Republic (Official journal of 24 october 1984) the test item Lauryle Pidolate is considered as irritating.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The product examined in ocular instillation according to the described protocol, in normal use conditions, undiluted, provokes specific significant medium value irritative injuries of the ocular mucous membrane.

Under tests conditions, the test item Lauryle Pidolate is considered as irritating and required a classification as Eye. Irrit. cat.2, H319 based on redness of conjonctiva according to CLP regulation.
