Toxicological information

Eye irritation

Currently viewing:

Administrative data

Endpoint:
eye irritation: in vivo
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Well documented and scientifically acceptable. Iron(II)Oxide belongs to the iron oxides family and presents comparable physico chemical properties, leading to similar behaviour for the all members of the iron oxide substances. In particular, based on affinity of the chemical structure, Iron Oxide (Fe3O4) and Iron(III)Oxide (Fe2O3) are selected to support read across for the Iron(II)Oxide dossier. Full justification paper is provided in the current Summary Section.
