Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the test material induced slight irritation being reversible within 2 days. Therefore, the test material is not classified as irritant to the eyes according to the Annex VI of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study, 0.1 mL of undiluted test material was instilled into the one eye of 6 albino rabbits while the contralateral eye remained untreated and served as control. The eyes were not rinsed after the instillation of test material. Animals were observed at 24, 48 and 72 after instillation of test material into eyes. The reactions in the conjunctivae (redness, chemosis and discharge), the iris and the cornea (opacity and area involved) were scored according to the Draize Scale.

The calculated mean score for each animal within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were 0.33/0.33/0.33/0.33/0.00/0.33 for redness, 0.00/0.00/0.00/0.33/0.00/0.33 for chemosis, and 0/0/0/0/0/0 for iris lesions and corneal opacity. The conjunctival reactions were fully reversible within 2 days. 

Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified as irritating to the eyes according to the annex VI of the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 (CLP).

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for eye irritation endpoint.
