Test system
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- other: left eye served as control
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 100 mg - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- - Dose administration: Approximately 100 mg of the test material was applied into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of one rabbit by gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for about one second immediately after treatment, to prevent loss of the test material, and then released. The left eye was untreated (control eye).
- Observation period (in vivo):
- Animals were observed up to 72 hours post administration
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- One animal initially, followed by a further animal once the irritation potential was fully assessed in the first animal.
- Details on study design:
- REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): Irrigation was not performed
SCORING SYSTEM:
Immediately after administration of the test material, an assessment of the initial pain reaction was made according to the six point scale (Table 1). Assessment of ocular damage/irritation was made approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours following treatment; the reactions observed were scored in accordance with the criteria of Draize (1977) (Table 2).
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Examination of the eye was facilitated by the use of the light source from a standard ophthalmoscope.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- No corneal effects were noted during the study. Iridial inflammation (grade 1) was noted in both treated eyes one hour after treatment. Moderate conjunctival irritation (grade 2 redness; grade 2 chemosis; grade 1 or 2 discharge) was noted in both treated eyes one hour after treatment. Minimal conjunctival irritation (grade 1 redness; grade 1 chemosis) was noted in both treated eyes at the 24 hour observation.
Both treated eyes appeared normal at the 48 hour observation and the study was terminated after the 72 hour observation. - Other effects:
- Both animals showed expected gain in body weight during the study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the test material only elicited slight reactions in any of the animals during the course of the study that meant the test material does not require classification as an eye irritant.
- Executive summary:
The potential of the test material to cause eye irritation was determined in a GLP study which was conducted in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 405 and EU Method B.5. Approximately 100 mg of test material was applied into one eye of each of two rabbits and were assessed for up to 72 hours to determine the grade of ocular reaction. No corneal effects were noted during the study. Mild iridial inflammation and moderate conjunctival irritation was noted in both treated eyes one hour after treatment. Minimal conjunctival irritation was noted in both treated eyes at the 24 hour observation. However, both treated eyes appeared normal at the 48 hour observation and the study was terminated after the 72 hour observation.
Under the conditions of the study, the test material only elicited slight reactions in any of the animals during the course of the study that meant the test material does not require classification as an eye irritant.
