Irritant / corrosive response data:
Following the instillation of the test substance into the rabbit eye no effects on cornea and iris were observed. In all 6 test animals the conjunctivae was reddened one hour after instiillation and a slight swelling and discharge were observed. After 24 hours, only a slight reddening could still be observed in 3 animals. All findings were resolved after 48 hours.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test substance is not irritating to the eye. Thus, according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 the data are conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
