Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In a primary eye irritation study decahydronaphthalene is considered to be not irritating to eyes.
- Executive summary:
In a primary eye irritation study 0.1 mL decahydronaphthalene were administered into the conjunctival sac of three male rabbits.
Slight reversible irritation was noted.
Eye irritation index was assessed using Draize scale.
The test was evaluated as follows (average of evaluation at 24, 48 and 72 hours respectively): cornea: 0, iris: 0, conjunctivae: redness: 0.78 and chemosis: 0.44 (mean scores on Draize scale). Therefore, decahydronaphthalene is considered to be not irritating to eyes with an overall irritation index of 3.5/110 (0 - 10 = not irritating).
