Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- According to this study, the test material is not classified as an eye irritant.
- Executive summary:
An eye irritation study was conducted in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 405. 0.1 g of the test material was instilled into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of six male New Zealand white rabbits.
Animals were observed for 21 days. Ocular irritation was scored based on chemosis and changes to the iris, cornea and conjunctivae at 24, 48 and 72 h.
The mean scores for the 6 rabbits across all timepoints were 0 for corneal opacity, 0.66 for iritis, 0 for redness and 0 for chemosis of the conjunctivae.
In this study, the test material was seen to be not irritating to the eye, requiring no classification.
