Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The registration substance is not irritating according to the results obtained in the OECD 405 study.
Executive summary:

The registration substance was investigated for its eye irritation property according to the OECD 405. Schwelling and redening of conjunctivae was observed only at reading time of 24 hours. No classification is warranted.
