Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Tin disulfide is not an ocular irritant according to CLP & GHS Guidelines.
Executive summary:

Three healthy New Zealand White rabbits (male), free from evidence of ocular irritation and corneal abnormalities were dosed with tin disulfide. The test article (0.1 mL equivalent (94.4 mg)) was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of each rabbit. The contralateral eye served as a control. The eyes were examined pretest and scored by the Draize technique at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours postdose.

There was no corneal opacity or iritis noted at any observation period. Conjunctival irritation of redness and or discharge, was noted in two out of three eyes, one eye cleared by 24 hours and the other eye by 48 hours. The control eyes appeared normal at all observation periods. There were no abnormal physical signs noted during the observation period. One animal gained body weight and the other two animals remained the same.
