Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
6-amino-1,3- Naphthalene disulfonic acid (CAS No: 118-33-2) was severely irritating to rabbit eyes after 24 hours of exposure.
Hence, 6-amino-1,3- Naphthalene disulfonic acid (CAS No: 118-33-2) can be considered to be an eye irritant.
Executive summary:

The eye irritation potential of 6-amino-1,3- Naphthalene disulfonic acid (CAS No: 118-33-2) was assessed in rabbits.

750 µg of 6-amino-1,3- Naphthalene disulfonic acid was instilled into rabbit eyes and observed for signs of irritation till 24 hours.

6-amino-1,3- Naphthalene disulfonic acid was severely irritating to rabbit eyes after 24 hours of exposure.

Hence, 6-amino-1,3- Naphthalene disulfonic acid (CAS No: 118-33-2) can be considered to be an eye irritant.
