Irritant / corrosive response data:
1 hour after instilling the test substance in the eyes, 1/4 rabbits had a slight discharge (grade 1 of 3) and 2/4 severe discharge (grade 3) from the treated eye, while 3/4 rabbits showed slight redness of the eye (grade 1 of 3). At the 6-hour reading time point, 3/4 rabbits showed slight redness and 1/4 still had severe discharge from the eye. These effects cleared completely within 24 hours and none of the animals had eye irritation effects at reading time points 24, 48 and 72 hours.
