Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- eye irritation: in vivo
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Guideline study and according to GLP. However as this study is used in the context of a read across, Klimisch 2 is assigned.
- Justification for type of information:
- The sulfonate group is a common functional group present in each of the analogue members, and is expected to exhibit similar biological activities with little influence from the length of carbon chain. Any potential breakdown products, via physical or biological processes, are also expected to result in structurally similar chemicals. In addition, non-random patterns have been observed for the toxicological effects (e.g., available data showed low levels of acute toxicity, lack of mutagenic potential, skin irritating properties and a trend of change in ecotoxicological potential based on molecular weight). These common behaviors and consistent trends suggest a common mechanism and mode of action thereby providing further supporting evidence for the read-across among the linear and branched alkyl benzene sulfonates.

- Other effects:
- One animal had clear discharge from the eye, one hour post dosing. There were no deaths or changes in bodyweight throughout the study.

- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Mean scores at 24, 48 and 72 hours for each animal for corneal opacity and iritis was 0 for all animals. Mean scores for conjuntival redness and oedema were less than 2 in all animals. Therefore, this substance is not irritating to rabbit eyes.
- Executive summary:
In a primary eye irritation study 0.1 ml of sodium 4-icosylbenzenesulfonate was instilled into the conjunctival sac of young adultwhite rabbits (3/sex). Animals then were observed for 7 days. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize.
No eye irritation was observed. In this study, sodium 4-icosylbenzenesulfonate is not an eye irritant.

- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Mean scores at 24, 48 and 72 hours for each animal for corneal opacity and iritis was 0 for all animals. The scores for conjunctival redness and oedema were less than 2 in 4 animals. Therefore, this substance is not irritating to rabbit eyes.
- Executive summary:
In a primary eye irritation study 0.1 ml of sodium 4-icosylbenzenesulfonatewas instilled into the conjunctival sac of young adultwhite rabbits (3/sex). Animals then were observed for72 hours. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize.
No eye irritation was observed. In this study, sodium 4-icosylbenzenesulfonate is not an eye irritant.
