SCORING SYSTEM:
The numerical scorings recorded were made differed to a certain extent from the grading scheme of OECD guideline 405. Both grading schemes score ocular lesions (corneal, iridic and conjunctival irritation), but the grading differed (see Table X in attached document).

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- The ocular reactions observed during the study remained slight to moderate and only recorded at the conjunctivae level: all animals had slight conjunctivitis but this was healed on day 3. In addition two animals had turgid swelling in the upper cheek area after 4 hours of treatment. This was no longer evident on day 1.
- Other effects:
- The authors conclude that the test compound, Cedarwood Chinese, is a slight eye irritant, according to the method they used (Modified Federal Hazardous Substance Labelling Act Method).
Any other information on results incl. tables
It is noted that the 72 -hour reading point is not available, but given the slight effect observed it is not expected that this would change the study outcome. The calculations, as presented in the tabel in the result section, are based on an average of three days. If there was no data for day 3, it was assumed that the score for this day should be 0 (also because in all cases the day before the score was also 0).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified
- Remarks:
- Based on CLP criteria
- Conclusions:
- In an eye irritation study performed similar to OECD405, Cedarwood Chinese oil did not induce significant or irreversible damage to the rabbit eye. Under the conditions of this test, Cedarwood Chinese oil does not need to be classified for eye irritant in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of CLP (1272/2008/EC).
- Executive summary:
The primary eye irritation potential of Cedarwood Chinese oil was investigated with a test method similar to OECD TG 405 (2002). The test item was applied (0.1 mL undiluted) to one eye of in total 3 New Zealand White rabbits. Eyes were examined 24 hours after treatment and thereafter at daily intervals and graded for corneal, conjunctival and iridial damage. Eyes were examined before application of materials and also at daily intervals with a slit lamp, also corneal swelling was measured. The test substance caused a slight opacity, affecting up to 1/2 of the cornea in one animal. All the animals had slight conjunctivitis. All three animals had healed by day three. Two animals had turgid swelling in the upper cheek area, 4 hrs after treatment, which was not evident anymore on day 1. To be able to interpret the results, the grading scheme as used in the study report was converted to the current OECD TG 405 grading scale. After conversion, the mean scores for corneal opacity and iritis were 0, for conjunctival redness in the range of 0.3-0.6, and for conjunctival chemosis in the range of 0-0.3. Based on the results of this test, it was concluded that Cedarwood Chinese oil does not need to be classified for eye irritant in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of CLP (1272/2008/EC).
