Eye irritation

Administrative data

Endpoint:

eye irritation: in vitro / ex vivo

Data waiving:

study scientifically not necessary / other information available

Justification for data waiving:

the study need not be conducted because the available information indicates that the criteria are met for classification as corrosive to the skin or irritating to eyes

Justification for type of information:

No eye irritation study of the undiluted test substance is available. As octenidine dihydrochloride is strongly irritating in studies on dermal irritation, for animal welfare reasons, no study should be performed, and it should be assumed that octenidine dihydrochloride is corrosive to the eyes.
