Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The substance did not cause eye irritation. The substance is not classifiable according to CLP criteria.
Executive summary:

The substance has been tested according to a procedure similar to the OECD guideline 405. Under test conditions the substance did not cause signs of irritation (cornea opacity, iris) only transient weak conjunctival signs which were fully reversible within 72 h were seen during the observation period.
