Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
In an eye irritation study conducted according to OECD 405 and to GLP, (3-chloropropyl)diethoxymethylsilane was only very slightly and transiently irritating to the eyes of small white Russian rabbits and therefore was not classified as an eye irritant.
