Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Executive summary:

Summary from report of the eye irritation

Single samples of approximately 73.2 mg of Everzol Orange ED-G Crude (a volume of approximately 0.1 mL) were instilled into one eye of each of three rabbits. Observations were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours and 7 days after instillation.

Instillation of the test substance resulted in irritation of the conjunctivae, which consisted of redness, chemosis and discharge. The irritation had completely resolved within 7 days in all animals.

No radial irritation or corneal opacity was observed and treatment of the eye with 2 % fluorescein, 24 hours after test substance instillation revealed no corneal epithelial damage.
