Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test item does not meet the criteria for classification as an eye irritant according to the GHS of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals.
Executive summary:

The study was performed to assess the irritancy potential of the test item to the eye of New Zealand white Rabbit. The study was conducted according to OECD guideline 405 and B.5 Method of EC in accordance with GLP.

A single application of the test item to the non-irritated eyes of 3 male rabbits produced iridial inflammation and moderate conjunctival irritation. Two treated eyes appeared normal at the 72 hour observation and one treated eye appeared normal at the 7 day observation.

The mean 24/48/72 hr score was as follows;

Cornea opacity: 0

Iris: 0.11

Conjuctivae redness: 1.66

Chemosis: 0.77

Moderate conjuctival irritation was noted in all treated eyes one hour after treatment. Moderate conjuctival irritation was noted in one treated eye and minimal conjuctival irritation was noted in two treated eyes at the 24 and 48 hour observations. Minimum conjuctival irritation was noted in one treated eye at the 72 hour observation.

Based on the findings of the study, the test item does not meet the criteria for classification as an eye irritant according to the GHS of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals.
