Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Not irritating
Conclusions:
Based on the lack of effects observed, It was determined that the test material Santicizer P1400 did not produce irritation to eyes and does not meet the criteria for classification as an ocular irritant under GHS or EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Executive summary:

In a key EPA OPPTS Guideline 870.2400 study, the potential of the test material (Santicizer P1400) to cause ocular irritation or corrosion was evaluated after instillation into the rabbit eye. 0.1 mL of the test material was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of three healthy New Zealand White rabbits (1 female and 2 males) with the contralateral eye serving as control. Treated and control eyes were examined pretest and scored by the Draize technique at 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours post-exposure. Sodium fluorescein dye procedures were used at the 24 hour observation interval and animals were evaluated for mortality, toxicity, and pharmacological effects at each ocular observation point. Body weights were recorded pretest.

 

No abnormal physical signs were observed during the study period and no corneal opacity, iritis, or conjunctival irritation was observed at any observation point. In 1 animal at the 1 hour timepoint, chemosis (1) and discharge (1), without redness (0) was observed. However, this was fully reversible by 24 hours and not considered indicative of irritation by the test material. All control eyes appeared normal through the study period.

 

Based on the lack of effects observed, It was determined that the test material Santicizer P1400 did not produce irritation to eyes and does not meet the criteria for classification as an ocular irritant under GHS or EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
