Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
EU Method B.5 (Acute Toxicity: Eye Irritation / Corrosion)
Principles of method if other than guideline:
GLP-compliant test, believed to be broadly comparable to the
old version of EC B5. In 3 additional rabbits, eyes were
flushed with water 20-30 secs after treatement. Irritation
was scored at 1, 24, 72 and 96h and 7 days. Scores were
combined using the Draize system.
GLP compliance:
yes

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Reversibility of any observed effect: Changes fully reversible within 2 days
Other effects:
No corneal or iridial irritation was seen and there was no
initial pain response. At 24h minor irritation (mean score
0) was seen in unwashed eyes: this had gone by 48h.

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the results of this study on the analogous substance, Renewable Diesel is expected to be slightly irritating to skin.
