Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the test substance is slightly irritating to the rabbit eye however does not meet the criteria for classification under GHS
Executive summary:

A study was conducted to assess the eye irritation potential of test substance to the rabbit eye according to EU Method B.5. and OECD Guideline 405 in compliance with GLP.


One animal received 100 mg of an undiluted test substance into conjunctival sac of the left eye. The other eyes served as untreated control. 24 h after the administration the eyes were washed thoroughly with isotonic saline at 37 °C. The eyes were also washed out at designated examination times at which discharge was observed or a corneal examination with fluorescein was performed.


The eyes were examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after administration of the test substance. At 24 and 72 h and after 7, 14 and 21 d, the eyes were further examined for cornea/lesions under UV light after instillation of one drop of a 0.01 % fluorescein-sodium solution. Lesions in cornea, iris or conjunctivae were graded numerically (Scale for scoring ocular reactions). All other changes or toxic effects were recorded when apparent.


 


One hour up to 2 d after treatment, the conjunctivae of two animals showed definitely injected blood vessels up to a diffuse crimson red color and very slight up to obvious swellings. Additionally, clear from substance colored eye discharge was noted. Three days after administration all signs of irritation were reversible. The conjunctivae and nictating membrane were discolored orange during the whole observation.


Under the test conditions, the test substance is slightly irritating to the rabbit eye however does not meet the criteria for classification under GHS
