- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to assess the eye irritancy potential of the read-across substance in New Zealand albino rabbits according to OECD Guideline 405 and EU Method B.5, in compliance with GLP.
A single dose of 100 mg test substance was applied to the conjunctival sac of the left eye of three animals. The treated eyes were washed out 24 h after administration. The untreated eye served as a control. The eyes were examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after administration of the test substance. At 24 and 72 hours and after 7 days, the eyes were further examined for corneal lesions under UV light after instillation of one drop of a 0.01 % fluorescein sodium solution. Lesions in cornea, iris or conjunctivae were graded numerically according to Draize. All other changes or toxic effects were recorded. Since effects were still present in the eyes after 72 hours, further examinations were carried out after 7 days.
One hour up to three days after administration the conjunctivae of the animals showed sporadically definitely injected blood vessels up to a deeper crimson red colour. One hour, in one case up to one day after administration slight swellings up to obvious swellings were noted. Additionally, serous eye discharge discoloured by the compound and orange discoloured nictitating membranes were observed. Seven days after administration all signs of irritation were disappeared.
In conclusion, testing of the test substance for primary eye irritation in the rabbit showed that the substance is not irritating to eye.

Additional information
Skin irritation, in vivo:
A study was conducted to determine the in vivo skin irritation potential of the substance according to an internal method of the laboratory. Clipped abraded and intact dorsal skin (ca. 1 x 1 inch) of six New-Zealand white rabbits was exposed to 500 mg of the test substance (slightly moistened with physiological saline) for 24 h under occlusive conditions. At the end of the exposure period, the treated skin area was carefully cleaned. Skin irritation/corrosion was assessed at 24, 48 and 72 h as well as at 1 and 2 weeks after bandage removal according to the Draize scoring system. The test substance produced some grade of erythema and eschar and very slight edema at 24 h after application only in one abraded skin. These changes disappeared within 14 d after application. Under the study conditions, the substance was not considered to be irritating to skin (Hosokawa, 1982).
Eye irritation, in vivo:
A study was conducted to determine the eye irritation potential of the substance according to an internal method of the laboratory. Nine New-Zealand white rabbits received 100 mg of the test substance in the conjunctival sac of one eye. The other eye remained untreated and served as negative control. The treated eyes of 6 animals remained unwashed and eyes of the other 3 animals were washed after application. Signs of ocular irritation were examined at 1, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h and at 1 and 2 weeks after treatment. The grading and scoring of irritating reactions was performed in accordance with the Draize scale. The test substance produced irritant reactions such as corneal opacity and hyperaemia, chemosis and discharge in the conjunctiva of unwashed eyes at 1 and 24 h after application. In the washed eyes, no irritant reaction was observed in the animals. The mean total score of these irritant reactions for the unwashed group was 11.2 at 24 h. Slight corneal opacity remained in 4 out of 6 unwashed animals at 14 d, other irritant reactions disappeared within 2 to 7 d after application in all remaining animals. Under the study conditions, the substance was considered not to be irritating to eyes if the substances is washed out of the eyes. If the substance is not washed out, slight cornea opacity remained for 14 days in 4 of 6 rabbits showing a tendency for reversibility in the areas affected (Hosokawa, 1982). As the observation period was too short for unwashed eyes to evaluate the complete reversibility of the test substance, the study cannot be used for classification of the substance.
A study was conducted to assess the eye irritancy potential of the structural analogue in New Zealand albino rabbits according to OECD Guideline 405 and EU Method B.5, in compliance with GLP. A single dose of 100 mg test substance was applied to the conjunctival sac of the left eye of three animals. The treated eyes were washed out 24 h after administration. The untreated eye served as a control. The eyes were examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after administration of the test substance. At 24 and 72 hours and after 7 days, the eyes were further examined for corneal lesions under UV light after instillation of one drop of a 0.01 % fluorescein sodium solution. Lesions in cornea, iris or conjunctivae were graded numerically according to Draize. All other changes or toxic effects were recorded. Since effects were still present in the eyes after 72 hours, further examinations were carried out after 7 days. One hour up to three days after administration the conjunctivae of the animals showed sporadically definitely injected blood vessels up to a deeper crimson red colour. One hour, in one case up to one day after administration slight swellings up to obvious swellings were noted. Additionally, serous eye discharge discoloured by the compound and orange discoloured nictitating membranes were observed. Seven days after administration all signs of irritation disappeared. In conclusion, testing of the test substance for primary eye irritation in the rabbit showed that the substance is not irritating to eye
Justification for classification or non-classification
An in vivo eye irritation study showed grades of corneal opacity in majority of the test rabbits in which the treated eyes were not washed. Although the corneal opacity scores were lower than the cut-off values mandated by the EU CLP (EC 1272/2008) criteria and showed reversibility, the effects were not completely reversed by the end of the 14 day observation period and four out of six animals presented a score of 1 at study end. Since the observation period was not prolonged to 21 days as requested by the guidelines to ensure complete reversibility of the effects, the study part with unwashed eyes cannot be used for classification of the test substance.
Thus, a study with the structural analogue was further taken into account in a weight of evidence approach with the test substance.
In this study, all irritant effects were reversed 7 days after test substance administration.
Based on the study part in washed eyes and the study with the read across substance, it is therefore concluded that the test substance is not irritating to eyes.
Therefore, based on the in vivo skin and eye irritation studies with the substance, no classification is warranted according to EU CLP (EC 1272/2008) criteria.
