Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not eye irritant according to CLP Regulation (EC) 1272/2008
Conclusions:
Administration of commercial grade test item to the eyes of 6 albino rabbits produced no irritation.
Executive summary:

The eye irritation potential of the test item was studied in an in vivo test on albino rabbits. 0.1 mL of the test item (commercially grade) was administered to the eye of six albino rabbits (untreated eye was used as control). The treated eyes were not rinsed after the application of the test item. No sign of irritation were observed after the application of the test item, so it was considered as non irritant.
