Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item produced slightly irritant effects, which were fully reversible within 72 hours. No corrosion or irreversible effects were evident in any of the animals, neither mortalities nor significant clinical signs of toxicity were observed.
Executive summary:

An acute eye irritation/corrosion study with Cyclohexanol, 4 -C11 -12 -alkyl, branched were performed on rabbits according to OECD Guideline 405, adopted 24 April 2002. A single ocular application of the test item at a dose of 0.1 ml produced slightly irritant but no corrosive effects, which were fully reversible within 72 hours. Neither mortalities nor significant clinical signs of toxicity were observed. The eyes were not rinsed after application. Upon fluorescein examination at the end of the observation period of 72 hours no corneal lesions were found in any animal. Conjuctival redness grade 1 were observed in all animals up to 48 hours. Discharge were noted in all animals grade 1 or 2 one hour after application and in one animal grade 1 up 24 hours after application. The mean scores for the 24, 48 and 72 hours time points were as follows: Cornea = 0, Iris = 0, Conjuctival Redness= 0.67, Conjuctival Chemosis = 0.
