Irritant / corrosive response data:
One hour after administration, the conjunctiva of the rabbits signed No.1 and No.2 were cardinal red congestion and light dropsy and having more excretion. The conjunctiva of the rabbits signed No.3 and No.4 were bright red congestion and light dropsy and having a small amount excretion. Twenty-four hours after administration, the conjunctiva of the rabbits signed No.2 and No.4 were cardinal red congestion and light dropsy and having a great quantity excretion. The dropsy of the conjunctiva of the rabbits signed No.1 and No.3 disappeared. Forty-eight hours after administration, the irritation of the four rabbits lightened. And the eye of the rabbits signed No.1, No.3 and No.4 recovered in the time of 72 h after administration. The eye of the rabbits signed No.2 recovered in the time of the 4th day. The irritation of Cornea and Iris were not observed.
Other effects:
Individual body weights were rising after exposing.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Not classified
Conclusions:
The mean cornea opacity and iris scores at 24, 48 and 72 h for each animal were all 0. The mean conjunctivae scores were 0.67, 1.33, 0.33, 1 and the mean chemosis scores were 0, 1, 0, 0.33, respectively at 24, 48 and 72 h after installation. All the irritations disappeared within 4 days.
Executive summary:

The irritation/corrosion effects of the test substance on eyes of rabbit were assessed in accordance with GB/T 21609-2008 Chemicals - Test method of acute eye irritation/corrosion.

100 mg of the test substance was applied on the left cornea of 2 female and 2 male White New Zealand rabbits. The untreated right eye was used as control.

The mean cornea opacity and iris scores at 24, 48 and 72 h for each animal were all 0. The mean conjunctivae scores were 0.67, 1.33, 0.33, 1 and the mean chemosis scores were 0, 1, 0, 0.33, respectively at 24, 48 and 72 h. All the irritations disappeared within 4 days.
