Test animals / tissue source
- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- New Zealand White
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- One New Zealand White (Hsdlf:NZW) strain rabbit was supplied by Harlan Laboratories UK Ltd., Leicestershire, UK. At the start of the study the animal weighed 2.60 kg and was twelve to twenty weeks old. After an acclimatisation period of at least five days the animal was given a number which was written with a black indelible marker-pen on the inner surface of the ear and on the cage label.The animal was housed in a suspended cage. Free access to mains drinking water and food (2930C Teklad Global Rabbit diet supplied by Harlan Laboratories UK Ltd., Oxon, UK) was allowed throughout the study. The diet and drinking water were considered not to contain any contaminant of a level that might have affected the purpose or integrity of the study.The temperature and relative humidity were set to achieve limits of 17 to 23°C and 30 to 70% respectively. Any occasional deviations from these targets were considered not to have affected the purpose or integrity of the study. The rate of air exchange was at least fifteen changes per hour and the lighting was controlled by a time switch to give twelve hours continuous light (06:00 to 18:00) and twelve hours darkness.The animal was provided with environmental enrichment items which were considered not to contain any contaminant of a level that might have affected the purpose or integrity of the study.
Test system
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- no
- Amount / concentration applied:
- A volume of 0.1 ml of the test item was placed into the conjunctival sac of the right eye
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 1 hour
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 21 days
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 1
- Details on study design:
- Immediately before the start of the test, both eyes of the provisionally selected test rabbit were examined for evidence of ocular irritation or defect with the aid of a light source from a standard ophthalmoscope. An animal free of ocular damage was used.A volume of 0.1 ml of the test item was placed into the conjunctival sac of the right eye, formed by gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The upper and lower eyelids were held together for about one second immediately after treatment, to prevent loss of the test item, and then released. The left eye remained untreated and was used for control purposes. Immediately after administration of the test item, an assessment of the initial pain reaction was made according to the six point scale shown in Appendix 1.After consideration of the ocular responses produced in this animal, no additional animals were treated. Assessment of ocular damage/irritation was made approximately 1 hour and 24, 48 and 72 hours following treatment, according to the numerical evaluation given in Appendix 2, (from Draize J H (1977) "Dermal and Eye Toxicity Tests" In: Principles and Procedures for Evaluating the Toxicity of Household Substances, National Academy of Sciences, Washington DC p.48 to 49).Any other ocular effects were also noted. Examination of the eye was facilitated by the use of the light source from a standard ophthalmoscope.Any clinical signs of toxicity, if present, were also recorded.Additional observations were made on Days 7, 14 and 21 to assess the reversibility of the ocular effects.In order to confirm the area of corneal opacity, the treated eye was examined under ultra violet light following treatment with Sodium Fluorescein BP (Minims: Bausch & Lomb, Surrey, UK) at the 7–Day observation. The cornea, conjunctivae and iris were also examined for lesions.The animal’s bodyweight was recorded on Day 0 (the day of dosing) and at the end of the observation period.

Interpretation of Results
Data was summarised in tabular form, showing the irritation scores for the designated observation time, a description of the degree and nature of irritation, the presence of serious lesions and non‑ocular effects.
If evidence of irreversible ocular damage is noted, the test item will be classified as corrosive to the eye.
The results were interpreted according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 December 2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Dangerous Substances.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye)
- Remarks:
- Migrated informationCriteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The test item was classified as Irreversible effects on the eye (Category 1) (based on one rabbit only). It is reasonable to assume that the Signal Word “Danger” and the Hazard Statement “H318: Causes serious eye damage” are therefore required.
- Executive summary:
The primary eye irritation potential of Sodiump-[(4,6-dichloro- 1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]benzenesulphonate) was investigated according to a method compatible with OECD test guideline no. 405 and Method B5. The test item was applied by instillation of 0.1 ml into the right eye of one young adult New Zealand White rabbit. Scoring of irritation effects was performed approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, 7, 14 and 21 days after test item instillation.
The instillation of Sodiump-[(4,6-dichloro- 1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)amino]benzenesulphonate) into the eye resulted in moderate to severe, early‑onset ocular changes, such as scattered or diffuse corneal opacity, iridial inflammation, reddening of the conjunctivae, ocular discharge and chemosis. These effects were irreversible and still evident 21 days after treatment, the end of the observation period. No clinical signs were observed.
Thus, the test item induced significant damage to the rabbit eye and induced irreversible damage to the rabbit eye.
The test item was classified asIrreversible effects on the eye (Category 1)(based on one rabbit only). It is reasonable to assume that the Signal Word “Danger” and the Hazard Statement “H318: Causes serious eye damage” are therefore required.
