Irritant / corrosive response data:
The test material produced no evidence of positive ocular irritation in any rabbit.
Other effects:
A dulling of the normal lustre of the cornea was observed in two rabbits at the one hour reading only. Mild conjunctival inflammation and swelling were seen in all three rabbits at this reading. The reactions had ameliorated completely in two rabbits by the 24 hours reading. MIld conjunctival inflammation persisted in the remaining rabbit until the 24 hours observation.

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
Conclusions:
The test material was found not irritating to rabbit eye in a study conducted according to current guideline and in compliance with GLP.
