Irritant / corrosive response data:

Other effects:
none

Any other information on results incl. tables

Study design

The test item was tested for its toxicological properties. For the test of primary eye irritation, 0.1 g of the test material was applied into the conjunctival sac of rabbits.

The study started with 1 animal and 2 animals were treated later.

The first examination of the eyes followed 1 hour after instillation. The examinations were performed daily for a further 7 days.


Results

No signs of irritation were observed at the cornea or iris. The conjunctivae showed redness (score 1) in one animal at the first reading. At later times no signs of irritation were observed. The untreated eyes were unchanged.


Conclusion

According to the EEC-Directive 91/325 the test material should not be regarded as an irritant for the eyes.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
According to these results, for regulatory purposes the test material has to be classified as non-irritant for the eyes.
Executive summary:

The study was performed according to OECD 405 under GLP conditions. According to these results, for regulatory purposes the test material has to be classified as non-irritant for the eyes.
