Irritant / corrosive response data:
Instillation of the test substance into the eyes of rabbits produced signs of irritation in all animals. In detail, redness and chemosis of the conjunctivae were observed in all test animals. Those effcets were fully reversible latest within 168 or 72 hours, respectively. Furthermore, 1/3 animals showed corneal opacity which was not reversible until the end of the observation period (20 days). In the 2 remaining animals, no effects on the cornea were determined. No effects on the iris were observed in any test animal.
Other effects:
Body weight evolution appeared normal.
