- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Very slight to moderate conjunctival reactions, including a very slight to moderate chemosis (grades 1 to 3), a very slight to moderate redness of the conjunctiva (grades 1 to 3) and a clear to whitish purulent discharge, were observed in all animals from day 1; some of these reactions persisted up to day 5 (2/3 animals) or 14 (1/3 animals).
No iritis and no corneal opacity were recorded.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: REGULATION (EC) No 1272/2008 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 16 December 2008
- Conclusions:
- DIBENZYL TRITHIOCARBONATE is slightly irritant when applied topically to rabbits.
- Executive summary:
The potential of DIBENZYL TRITHIOCARBONATE to induce ocular irritation was evaluated in rabbits according to OECD (No. 405, 24th April 2002) and EC (2004/73/EC, B.5, 29th April 2004) guidelines.
The test item was first administered to a single male New Zealand White rabbit. Since the test item was not severely irritant on this first animal, it was then evaluated simultaneously in two other animals.
A single dose of 0.1mL of the undiluted test item was instilled into the left conjunctival sac. The right eye was not treated and served as control. The eyes were not rinsed after administration of the test item.
Ocular reactions were observed approximately 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the administration and then daily until reversibility of the ocular reactions. The mean values of the scores for chemosis, redness of the conjunctiva, iris lesions and corneal opacity were calculated for each animal.
Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 2.3, 1.0 and 1.0 for chemosis, 1.7, 1.3 and 1.3 for redness of the conjunctiva, 0.0, 0.0 and 0.0 for iris lesions and 0.0, 0.0 and 0.0 for corneal opacity.
Under these experimental conditions, DIBENZYL TRITHIOCARBONATE was slightly irritant when administered by ocular route to rabbits.
