Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
not required
Amount / concentration applied:

TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit):0.1 ml of test item / eye
- Concentration (if solution):undiluted


Duration of treatment / exposure:
test item absorbed / not removed after dosage
Observation period (in vivo):
1, 24, 48, 72 hours and 7 days after dosing
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3 females
Details on study design:
Undiluted test item was introduced into the right eye of each animal by gently pulling away the lower lid from the eyeball to form a cup into which the test item was placed. The lids were then held shut for a few seconds to prevent loss of the test item. No rinse of the eye was performed. The left eye remained untreated.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: the substance is not irritating according to Directive 67/548/EEC but it is classified as Eye irritant Category 2 according to CLP Regulation.
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
These results indicate that based upon classification criteria of European Directives concerning the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances (67/548/EEC and subsequent revisions) Dipropylen glycol isobornyl ether (mixture of isomers) is not irritating to eyes.

According to the CLP Regulation, the substance is classified as Eye irritant, Category 2, based on the scores obtained for the corneal opacity, which are above 1 for the three animals.
Executive summary:

The acute eye irritation of Dipropylenglykolisobornylether (isomerengemisch) was investigated in rabbits in accordance with OECD Guideline 405 (Acute Eye Irritation / Corrosion) and EU Guidelines B.5.

A 0.1 ml aliquot of the test item (undiluted) was introduced in to the right eye of a total of 3 animals.

The resulting reaction to treatment was assessed 1, 24, 48,and 72 hours and 7 days after treatment.

Slight conjunctival redness, chemosis an ocular discharges were observed in the three animals at 1 hour examination.

Moderate concjuntival redness and ocular discharges, well defined chemosis, slight to moderate iris inflammation and moderate corneal opacity were then observed in the three animals at 24 hours examination.

Slight to absent ocular discharge, slihgt concjuntival redness, well defined to absent chemosis, slight to moderate to absent iris inflammation and slight cornela opacity were observed in 1 animal at the 48 and 72 hours examinations.

Observations of the remaining 2 animals, performed at the same examination time, revealed slight concjuntival redness and slight to absent chemosis.

Slight to well defined corneal opacity was observed in these two animals at 48 hours examination while slight corneal opacity was observed in the same animals at 72 hours examination.

Complete recovery has ocurred 7 days after dosing. There was no indication of systemic effect of treatment. The body weights of animals were considered to be within the normal range of variability.

These results indicate that based upon classification criteria of European Directives concerning the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances (67/548/EEC and subsequent revisions) Dipropylen glycol isobornyl ether (mixture of isomers) is not irritating to eyes.

According to the CLP Regulation, the substance is classified as Eye irritant, Category 2, based on the scores obtained for the corneal opacity (calculated as the mean scores following grading at 24, 48 and 72 h) which are above 1 for the three animals and which fully reverses within the observation period.
