- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 mL - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Not applicable (no washout)
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 72 hours

SCORING SYSTEM: according to OECD 405
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE:
- Where standard lighting was considered inadequate for observing minor effects, eye examinations were performed using an ophthalmic examination lamp.
- Immediately after the 24-hour observation, a solution of 2% fluorescein (Merck, Darmstadt, Germany) in water (adjusted to pH 7.0) was instilled into both eyes of each animal to quantitatively determine corneal epithelial damage. Any bright green stained area, indicating epithelial damage, was estimated as a percentage of the total corneal area.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not classified
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- In accordance with OECD 405 and GLP, an acute eye irritation study was conducted in 3 female rabbits. Instillation of 0.1 mL of the substance into one eye of each of three rabbits resulted in redness of the conjunctivae. The irritation had completely resolved within 24 hours in one animal and within 48 hours in the other two animals. No iridial irritation or corneal opacity was observed, and treatment of the eyes with 2% fluorescein 24 hours after test substance instillation revealed no corneal epithelial damage. Based on the results of this study, the substance does not need to be classified for eye irritation in accordance with the CLP Regulation.
