Test animals / tissue source

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
Male New Zealand White Rabbits ten to twelve weeks old, weighing between 2.57 and 2.70 kilograms at the start of the study were individually housed in stainless stell cages in a temperature, humidity and light controlled room. Purina Rabbit chow and water were available ad libitum. The animals were conditioned for at least 5 days prior to study initiation.

Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: The contralateral eye to treatment served as the untreated control for each rabbit
Amount / concentration applied:
0.1 mL of undiluted test sample
Duration of treatment / exposure:
Three animals were dosed by instilling 0.1 mL of the test article into one eye and then holding the eye lids together for one second to prevent loss of the material. The contralateral eye served as the untreated control for each rabbit.
Observation period (in vivo):
72 hours
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test susbtance is not considered to be irritating to the eye.
Executive summary:

The test substance was administered into one eye of each of three albino rabbits. The eyes were observed and

scored at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours. There was minimal irritation observed in all of the test subjects

and the maximum group mean score was 10.67/110.0 at the 1 hour observation. All irritation

cleared within 72 hours. In accordance with GHS and OECD 405 guidelines, the substance is not classified for eye irritation.
