Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the experimental conditions of this test, 1,6 Divinylperfluorohexane is to be considered "non irritant" for the eye.
Executive summary:

In an acute eye irritation study, young adult New Zealand white rabbits (3 animals) were in the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each animal exposed to 0.1 mL of the test article (1,6 Divinylperfluorohexane). The eye was observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the test application. No animals died. No clinical signs or behavioral alterations were noted. No modification of cornea, iris and conjunctivae was observed in any animal. The test article, when administered by ocular route to rabbits under the experimental conditions adopted, is to be considered "non irritant" for the eye.
