Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance was found to be non-irritating to rabbit eyes.
Executive summary:

The study was performed according to OECD guideline no. 405 and EU method B.5. 0.1 ml of test article was instilled into the right eye (conjunctival sac) of each of 6 rabbits. Observations were recorded at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hrs after treatment. Scoring was conducted according to the Draize method. No iritis or corneal changes were seen in any of the animals. The substance does not have to be classified as an irritant on the basis of the test results.
