- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- Eyes from adult cattle (typically 12 to 60 months old) were obtained from a local abattoir as a by-product from freshly slaughtered animals. The eyes were excised by an abattoir employee after slaughter, and were placed in Hanks’ Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) supplemented with antibiotics (penicillin at 100 IU/mL and streptomycin at 100 µg/mL). They were transported to the test facility over ice packs on the same day of slaughter. The corneas were prepared immediately on arrival

- SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF CORNEAS
The medium from both chambers of each holder was replaced with fresh complete EMEM. A pre-treatment opacity reading was taken for each cornea using a calibrated opacitometer. The average opacity for all corneas was calculated. Three corneas were randomly allocated to the negative control. Three corneas were also allocated to the test item and three corneas to the positive control item.
QUALITY CHECK OF THE ISOLATED CORNEAS
All eyes were macroscopically examined before and after dissection. Only corneas free of damage were used.
TREATMENT METHOD: The EMEM was removed from the anterior chamber of the BCOP holder and 0.75 mL of the test item or control items were applied to the appropriate corneas. The holders were gently tilted back and forth to ensure a uniform application of the item over the entire cornea. Each holder was incubated, anterior chamber uppermost, at 32 ± 1 ºC for 10 minutes. At the end of the exposure period the test item and control items were removed from the
anterior chamber and the cornea was rinsed 3 times with fresh complete EMEM containing phenol red before a final rinse with complete EMEM without phenol red. The anterior chamber was refilled with fresh complete EMEM without phenol red. A post-treatment opacity reading was taken and each cornea was visually observed. The holders were incubated, anterior chamber facing forward, at 32 ± 1 ºC for 120 minutes. After incubation the holders were removed from the incubator, the medium from both chambers was replaced with fresh complete EMEM and a final opacity reading was taken. Each cornea was visually observed.
Following the final opacity measurement the permeability of the corneas to sodium fluorescein was evaluated. The medium from the anterior chamber was removed and replaced with 1 mL of sodium fluorescein solution (4 mg/mL). The dosing holes were plugged and the holders incubated, anterior chamber uppermost, at 32 ± 1 ºC for 90 minutes.
After incubation the medium in the posterior chamber of each holder was decanted and retained. 360 µL of media representing each cornea was dispensed into the appropriate wells of a pre-labeled 96-well plate. The optical density was measured (quantitative viability analysis) at 492 nm (without a reference filter) using the Labtech LT-4500 microplate reader.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- GHS criteria not met
- Conclusions:
- According to the criteria for classification (No category), the test item Tall Oil Pitch, reaction product with triethylene glycol (CAS: 2135769-54-7) does not require classification to UN GHS or EU CLP.
- Executive summary:
The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the test item Tall Oil Pitch, reaction product with triethylene glycol to induce serious eye damage. The study was performed according to OECD 437 Guideline (Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability (BCOP) test method) and under GLP conditions.
The undiluted test item was applied for 10 minutes followed by an incubation period of 120 minutes. Negative and positive control items were tested concurrently. The two endpoints, decreased light transmission through the cornea (opacity) and increased passage of sodium fluorescein dye through the cornea (permeability) were combined in an empirically
derived formula to generate anIn Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS).
The positive controlIn VitroIrritancy Score was within the range of 31.6 to 58.7. The positive control acceptance criterion was therefore satisfied.
The negative control gave opacity of =3.0 and permeability =0.077. The negative control
acceptance criteria were therefore satisfied.
The In Vitro Irritancy Score of the test item was 1.0.
In conclusion, according to the criteria for classification (No category), the test item Tall Oil Pitch, reaction product with triethylene glycol (CAS: 2135769-54-7) does not require classification to UN GHS or EU CLP.
