- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Irritant effects on conjunctiva (redness) were minimal at 1 hour in all animals. Redness was fully reversed at 24h in two animals and at 48h in the last rabbit. There were no effects on the cornea and the iris at any time point. Chemosis was not observed at any time point in all animals.
It can be concluded that BP Solvent IH/Isohexadecane would not be classified as eye irritant. - Other effects:
- There were no pathological modifications on the deeper eye sections that were checked (cornea, anterior chamber, iris, vitreous body, eye background).
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information
- Conclusions:
- under the test conditions, BP Solvent IH/Isohexadecan is not classified as eye irritant according to the criteria of Annex VI of the Directive 67/548/EEC and the CLP Regulation 1272/2008.
- Executive summary:
This data is being read across from the source study that tested Isohexadecane based on analogue read across.
The irritant potential of the substance BP Solvent IH/Isohexadecane was assessed by applying 0.1 mL of the test substance in the conjunctival sac of the left eye of 6 male Himalayan rabbits. After application the animals lid were kept closed for 1 second. The right eye was used as control and received 0.1 mL of physiological NaCl solution.
The eyes were examined and the changes were graded according to a numerical scale at 15 min, 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after dosing.
No conjunctival chemosis, corneal and iridal lesion were observed throughout the observation period. Slight redness of the conjunctivae was observed in all animals at 1 hour but only in one animal by the 24 hours after instillation. At 48-hour observation period, no redness was observed in any rabbit. Hence, the mean individual score for redness was 0.33-0.0-0.0.
BP Solvent IH/Isohexadecane is not classified as eye irritant according to Annex VI of the Directive 67/548/EEC and CLP Regulation 1272/2008.
