Irritant / corrosive response data:
50% test substance group:
Redness of the conjunctiva (score 1) was evident in the eye of one animal on day 21. The corneal opacity (score 2), area of the opacity (score 2), redness of the conjunctiva (score 1) and chemosis in conjunctiva (score 1) were evident in the eye of one animal. No adverse effects on the conjunctiva, cornea and iris were evident in the eyes of one animal. Corneal vascularisation was evident from day 7 to day 21 in one animal as well as other eye irritations. In conclusion, irreversible effects to the conjunctiva and corneal were observed following instillation of the 50% test substance into the eyes of rabbits. See table 2 for more detail.
Other effects:
No abnormal clinical signs or symptoms were evident in any animals throughout the duration of the study. All animals exhibited normal body weight gains. Mean body weight gains were 0.09 kg and 0.41 kg in the 10 and 50% test substance groups, respectively.
