Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The substance induced very weak signs of eye irritation (redness). However, the irritating effect was not sufficient to meet the GHS criteria for classification. All signs were fully reversible within 7 d.
