Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The chemical caused intense coloring of the iris, lasting for 2 to 7 days. The mean Draize score 3 days after last application was 0.0
Based on the observations and Draize scores, the test material was considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
Executive summary:

The eye irritation potential of test chemical was assessed in rabbits. About 0.2 ml of a 10% aqueous solution (20 mg) or suspension of chemical was applied twice daily, five times weekly, for four weeks to the conjunctival sac of one eye of each of a group of six or more albino rabbits (40 applications). One hour after each application, the eyes were examined for evidence of staining and the irritation was scored according to Draize.

The chemical caused intense coloring of the iris, lasting for 2 to 7 days. The mean Draize score 3 days after last application was 0.0

Based on the observations and Draize scores, the test material was considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
