Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The ocular irritation potential of 3- nitrocetophenone was assessed in rabbits.
3- nitroacetophenone was rated 1 on scale of 1 to 10 according to degree of injury observed after 24 hr. The most severe injuries have been rated 10.
Therefore, 3- nitroacetophenone can be considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.

Executive summary:

The ocular irritation potential of 3- nitroacetophenone was assessed in rabbits.

The test chemical was instilled into rabbit eyes and effects were observed for 24 hours. The effects were graded on a scale 1-10 after 24 hours.

3- nitroacetophenone wasrated 1 on scale of 1 to 10 according to degree of injury observed after 24 hr. The most severe injuries have been rated 10.

Therefore,3- nitroacetophenone can be considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
