Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The test substance was assessed for eye irritation in three healthy New Zealand white rabbits. No clinical sings, body weight changes, body weight changes, dead animals or abnormal eye reaction considered to be due to test item were observed. The test item was considered to be non-irritating to eyes.
