Details on study design:

SCORING SYSTEM: Draize J.H. 1959
Cornea opacity and degree of density (most dense area scored)
0 no opacity
1 scattered or diffuse area, details of iris clearly visible
2 easily discernible translucent areas, details of iris slightly obscured
3 opalescent areas, no details of iris visible, siz eof pupils barely discernible
4 opaque, iris invisible

Iris
0 normal
1 folds above normal, congestion, swelling, circumcornea injection (nay or all of these or combination of any thereof) iris still reacting to light (sluggish reaction is positive)
2 no reaction to light, hemorrage, gross destruction (any or all of these)

Conjunctivae redness (refers to palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva excluding cornea and iris)
0 vessels normal
1 vessels definitely injected above normal
2 more diffuse, deeper crimson red, individual vessels not easily discernible
3 diffuse beefy red

Conjuctivae chemosis
0 no swelling
1 any swelling above normal (includes nictitating membrane)
2 obvious swelling with partial eversion of lids
3 swelling with lids about half closed
4 swelling with lids about half to completely closed

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

other: not classified according to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008)

Conclusions:

Under test conditions, test substance was found to cause no irritation when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.

Executive summary:

Method

The substance was evaluated for eye irritation/corrosion according to the OECD guideline 405. Test substance was applied to the left eye of each animal and the eye was not rinsed. The right eye served as control.Reactions were scored 1 hour, 24, 48 and 72 hours after application.

Results

Under test conditions, the substance was found to cause no irritation when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa. No discoloration of the cornea and conjunctiva, which could be related to compound effect was observed. No corrosion effect was observed at each of the measuring intervals.
