Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- No study on eye irritation with cesium sulphate is available. Consequently, read-across with cesium nitrate was performed. In conclusion, the test substance applied to the rabbits' eye mucosa, caused slight to severe conjunctival irritant effects, fully reversible within 72 hours and is thus not considered to be irritating to the eye. Accordingly, cesium sulphate is considered to have no irritating potential.
- Executive summary:
No study on eye irritation with cesium sulphate is available. Consequently, read-across with cesium nitrate was performed. In an eye irritation test (in vivo) according to OECD No. 405 rabbits' eyes were examined at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the application of the test item. One hour after the treatment, slight conjunctival redness, slight to moderate chemosis and slight to severe discharge were observed. 48 hours after the treatment, slight redness was recorded in one animal. Two animals became free of symptoms. 72 hours after treatment the study was terminated, as all animals were free of symptoms of irritation. In conclusion, the test substance applied to the rabbits' eye mucosa, caused slight to severe conjunctival irritant effects, fully reversible within 72 hours. Thus cesium nitrate is not considered to be irritating to the eye. Accordingly, cesium sulphate is considered to have no irritating potential.
