Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not irritating
- Conclusions:
- No signs of irritation were observed in the treated eyes of rabbits at any time point.
The scores obtained at 1, 2, 3, and 7 days were 0.0. Hence, Disperse Black 9 can be considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes. - Executive summary:
The ocular irritation potential of Disperse Black 9 was assessed in rabbits. 100 mg of the powdered dye was instilled in one eye of 6 rabbits and the other eye served as control. The treated eyes were observed and scored at 1, 2, 3, and 7 days. The maximum attainable score was 110.
No signs of irritation were observed in the treated eyes of rabbits at any time point.
The scores obtained at 1, 2, 3, and 7 days were 0.0. Hence,Disperse Black 9 can be considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
