Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Eye Irrit 2 (H319), according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
- Conclusions:
- Eye irritating
- Executive summary:
The eye irritation potential of the test substance was investigated according to thhe method and procedures outlined into the OECD guideline 405. 0.1 g of test item was placed into the right eye of each rabbit; the other eye remaining untreated, served as a control. The eyes were examined and the grade of ocular reaction was recorded at 1, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days. The ocular reactions were scored by the method described into the OECD Guidelines for testing of Chemicals, Section 4, number 405 "Acute Eye irritation/corrosion" adopted May 12, 1981.
Under the conditions of the experiment, test item was found to cause a primary irritation score of 5.6 when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa. In the area of application, a violet discoloration sclera and conjunctivae was observed within 1 hour after treatment. This could be related to effect of the test article. No corrosion was observed at each of the measuring intervals.
Conclusion
The mean values from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours were higher than 1, but lower than 3 for corneal opacity (i.e. 1 .3 - 1.7) in all the treated animals; equal to 1 for iritis in 2 out of 3 rabbits, equal to 2 in two rabbits and equal to 3 in the third one for conjunctival redness; lower than 2 in 2 out of 3 tested rabbits for conjunctival oedema. Although the experiment was termined after 7 days and some reactions were still visible, there are no resons to suspect the possibility of non-reversibility of the effects over an observation period of normally 21 days: based on the description of the individual findings provided in the report, the severity of the effects resulted to be reduced respect to severity recorded after 72 hours.
In conclusion, a classification in category 2 of CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 seems to be appropriate.
