Remarks on result:
no indication of irritation
Remarks:
Unrinsed Eyes
Irritant / corrosive response data:
The test chemical showed no irritation when applied on the rabbit eye mucosa.
No discoloration of the cornea and conjunctivae was observed in the rabbits during the entire test period which could be related to compound effects.
No corrosion effect was observed at each of the measuring intervals.
Other effects:
No acute toxicological signs were observed in the animals during the test period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The test chemical showed no irritation when applied on the rabbit eye mucosa. No discoloration of the cornea and conjunctivae was observed in the rabbits during the entire test period which could be related to compound effects. No corrosion effect was observed at each of the measuring intervals.
Hence, the test chemical was considered to be not irritating to eyes.
Executive summary:

An ocular irritation study of test chemical was conducted on New Zealand White rabbits according to OECD guideline 405.  

About 100mg of undiluted chemical was instilled into the one eye of each rabbit whereas the other untreated eye served as control.

The treated eyes were not rinsed and the ocular lesions were scored after 72 hours according to Draize method.

The test chemical showed no irritation when applied on the rabbit eye mucosa. No discoloration of the cornea and conjunctivae was observed in the rabbits during the entire test period which could be related to compound effects. No corrosion effect was observed at each of the measuring intervals.

Hence, the test chemical was considered to be not irritating to eyes.
