Irritant / corrosive response data:
One to 72 hours after application, the conjunctivae showed a diffuse bright red color and a very clear swelling to a swelling with more than half-closed lids. The iris was red, the cornea showed diffuse opacity areas to easily discernible translucent areas. 7 Days after application significant hyperemia of some blood vessels to diffuse crimson-red colored conjunctivae and very slightly to significantly swollen conjunctivae were observed. One animal showed scattered areas of opacity of the cornea. 14 Days after application all signs of irritation were reversible. One hour to 7 days after application, the irritation was accompanied with a clear, colorless or white mucous discharge. One animal showed 24 hours to 7 days after application partially white discolorations, bleeding and detachments of parts of the conjunctivae and nictitating membrane.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on this study and taking into account any other eye changes the test item is classified as irritant according to the classification criteria of Directive 83/467/EEC and the Hazardous Substances Regulation and is labeled R 36- irritating to the eyes.
Executive summary:

Three New Zealand White rabbits underwent a single application in the conjunctival sac of the left eye of 0.1 mL of the test item. The untreated eye served as a control. 24 Hours after administration of the test item as well as to all other assessment time points at which, the treated eyes still showed discharges or in which a corneal examination with fluorescein sodium solution was done, the treated eyes were thoroughly washed with physiological saline solution (ca. 37°C).
The assessments of the eyes were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation. In addition the cornea was also examined under UV light, after instillation of a drop of fluorescein sodium solution, at the assessment time points 24 and 72 hours. Damage to the cornea, iris and conjunctivae were scored numerically. Mean 24 -72h scores were 1.4/4 for cornea, 1/2 for iris, 3/3 for conjuctiva and 2.6/4 for chemosis. All other changes were recorded. Because eye effects were still present at 72 hours, an additional assessment was carried out after 7 and 14 days.
One to 72 hours after application, the conjunctivae showed a diffuse bright red color and a very clear swelling to a swelling with more than half-closed lids. The iris was red, the cornea showed diffuse opacity areas to easily discernible translucent areas. 7 Days after application significant hyperemia of some blood vessels to diffuse crimson-red colored conjunctivae and very slightly to significantly swollen conjunctivae were observed. One animal showed scattered areas of opacity of the cornea. 14 Days after application all signs of irritation were reversible. One hour to 7 days after application, the irritation was accompanied with a clear, colorless or white mucous discharge. One animal showed 24 hours to 7 days after application partially white discolorations, bleeding and detachments of parts of the conjunctivae and nictitating membrane.
