- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hours light / 12 hours dark
Test system
- Controls:
- yes, concurrent no treatment
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): on average, animals were treated by instillation of 37.1 mg (range 36.8 - 37.2 mg) test material (a volume of ca. 0.1 mL), in the conjunctival sac of one of the eyes after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for ca. 1 second to prevent loss of the test material. The other eye remained untreated and served as the control. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 72 hours
- Observation period (in vivo):
- The eys of each animal were examined 1, 24, 48 amd 72 hours after instillation of the test material.
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3 males
- Details on study design:
- SCORING SYSTEM: The irritation reactions were scored using the Draize System.
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: Immediately after the 24-hour observation, a solution of 2% fluorescein in water was instilled into both eyes of each animal to quantitatively determine corneal epithelial damage.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- IRRITATION
Irritation of the cornea was noted, which consisted of redness, chemosis and discharge. The irritation had completely resolved within 24 hours in one animal and within 48 hours in the other two animals.
No iridial irritation or corneal opacity were observed, and treatment of the eyes with 2% fluorecein, 24 hours after test material instillation revealed no corneal damage.
CORROSION
There was no evidence of ocular corrosion. - Other effects:
- COLOURATION/ REMNANTS
No staining of (peri) ocular tissues by the test material was observed. Remnants of the test material were present in the eye on Day 1.
TOXICITY/ MORTALITY
No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information not classified Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study the test material was not found to be irritating to the eyes.
- Executive summary:
The potential of the test material to cause eye irritation was investigated in a study which was conducted under GLP conditions and in accordance with the standardised guidelines OECD 405, EU Method B.5, EPA OPPTS 870.2400 and JMAFF Guidelines (2000).
During the study single samples of test material (ca. 0.1 mL) were instilled into one eye of each of three rabbits. Observations were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation.
Instillation of the test material resulted in irritation of the conjunctivae, which consisted of redness, chemosis and discharge. The irritation had completely resolved within 24 hours in one animal and within 48 hours in the other two animals.
Remnants of the test material were present in the eye on Day 1.
Based on the results of this study, the test material is not considered to be an eye irritant.
