Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
Based on the observed results and applying the evaluation criteria cited in chapter 3.10 it was concluded, that 4,4'-Diamino-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-dicyclohexylmethane causes serious eye damage in the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability Test (BCOP Test) under the test conditions chosen.
Executive summary:

The potential of 4,4'-Diamino-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-dicyclohexylmethane to cause serious damage to the eyes was assessed by a single topical application of 750 μL of the undiluted test substance to the epithelial surface of isolated bovine corneas. Three corneas were treated with the test substance for 10 minutes followed by a 2-hours post-incubation period. Corneal opacity was measured quantitatively as the amount of light transmission through the cornea. Permeability was measured quantitatively as the amount of sodium fluorescein dye that passes across the full thickness of the cornea. Both measurements were used to calculate an In Vitro Irritancy Score of the test substance relative to the control corneas. Based on the observed results and applying the evaluation criteria cited in chapter 3.10 it was concluded, that 4,4'-Diamino-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl-dicyclohexylmethane causes serious eye damage in the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability Test (BCOP Test) under the test conditions chosen.
