- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 ml (equivalent 68.3 mg). - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Single exposure
- Observation period (in vivo):
- Up to 7 days.
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

- Details on study design:
- DOSING:
One eye of each rabbit was dosed. The contralateral eye served as a control. The test article (0.1 ml (equivalent (68.3 mg)) was placed by syringe-type applicator into the conjunctival sac, which was formed by gently pulling the lower eyelid away from the eye. After instillation, the lids were held together for approximately one second to ensure adequate distribution of the test article.
TYPE AND FREQUENCY OF OBSERVATIONS:
Using a Mini-Maglite flashlight equipped with a high intensity bulb, the treated eye of each rabbit was examined for irritation of the cornea, iris and conjunctiva at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours in all three animals and to day 7 in the two additional animals. Sodium fluorescein dye procedures were used at the 24 and 48 hour observation intervals for the initial animal and at the 24 hour observation interval for the two additional animals. The eye was examined with the aid of an ultraviolet light source.
Ocular reactions were graded according to the numerical Draize technique (see attached background matertial). Additional signs were described.
Body weights were recorded pretest and at termination.
The general health of the animals was monitered at each observation time. All animals were humanely sacrificed using CO2 following study termination.

Objective:
To determine the irritant and/or corrosive effects, if any, of a test article when instilled into the rabbit eye. The study was designed to comply with the standards set forth in OECD Guidelines For Testing Chemicals, Number 405, adopted April 24, 2002.
Method Synopsis:
Initially, one healthy New Zealand White rabbit (female), free from evidence of ocular irritation and corneal abnormalities, was dosed with NIPMAA Technical Grade. The test article (0.1 ml (equivalent (68.3 mg)) was placed into the conjuctival sac of one eye. Based on the reactions of the initial animal, two additional animals (1 male, 1 female) were added to the study and dosed in the same manner. The eyes were examined and scored by the Draize technique at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours in all three animals and to day 7 in the two additional animals. Sodium fluorescein dye procedures were used at the 24 and 48 hour observation intervals for the initial animal and at the 24 hour observation interval for the two additional animals. The primary eye irritation score for each rabbit, each day, was calcuated. Body weights were recorded pretest and at termination.
Summary:
There was no corneal opacity or iritis noted at any observation period. Conjunctival irritation was noted in 3/3 eyes and cleared by day 7.
All animals appeared normal during the observation period.
Conclusion:
NIPMAA Technical Grade produced conjunctival irritation which cleared by day 7.
