Number: Three males and three females

Body Weight Range: 2370 to 3328 grams at initiation of dosing
Age at Start of Study: Young adult
Method of Identification: Eartag

Housing: Individual suspended wire mesh cages. The animals were maintained by the animal husbandry staff of WIL Research Laboratories, Inc. in
accordance with standard operating procedures.

Acclimation: The animals were acclimated to laboratory conditions for a minimum of seven days prior to initiation of dosing.

Food and Water: PMI Nutrition International, Inc. Certified Rabbit LabDiet 5322 was offered at approximately 150 g per day during the study. Analysis of feed was performed and provided by the manufacturer. Reverse osmosis-treated municipal water was provided ad libitum. Water was analyzed in accordance with standard operating procedures. Contaminants were not present in animal feed or water at levels expected to interfere with the objective of this study. Results of analyses are available upon sponsor request.
Environmental Conditions: Animal room with controlled temperature (64.1- 67.2°F), humidity (50.1-76.7%) and light (12 hours light/l2 hours dark). The humidity was slightly above the protocol-specified range (30-70%) within the study period. A brief period of slightly increased humidity would not be expected to adversely affect the health of the rabbits. Therefore, this deviation did not affect the quality or integrity of the study.

Test Article Preparation:
Prior to use, the original container of the test article was agitated to insure a homogeneous mixture. A sufficient amount of test article was dispensed and a stir bar was added. The test article was stirred continuously throughout use.

Route and Rationale of Test Article Administration:
The route of administration for the test article was direct application to clipped, unabraded skin. This route of administration is standard for assessment of local dermal irritative potential.

Method of Test Article Administration:
On the day prior to dosing, the hair was removed from the backs and flanks of the rabbits using an electric clipper. Each 0.5-ml dose was applied to an area of skin approximately 2.5 x 2.5 cm under a two-ply gauze patch secured in place with Micropore tape. The patches were overwrapped with a gauze binder and secured with Dermiform tape. Plastic restraint collars were applied to the animals to prevent ingestion of the test article andor bandages.

Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
Young adult animals weighing 2222 to 2515 grams were identified with eartags. the animals were housed in individual suspended wire mesh cages and acclimated for a minimum of 7 days. They were offered approximately 150 g of PMI Nutrition International inc. Certified Rabbit LabDiet(R) 5322 per day and given Municipla water ad libitum. Animal rooms were controlled at 68.3-68.8 deg F, 30.2-55.0% rhumidity and 12 hour light/12 hour dark cycles.
Controls:
other: One eye was use for the test substance; the other served as the control.
Amount / concentration applied:
0.1 ml
Duration of treatment / exposure:
Test material was instilled into one eye of the test animal while the other eye remained untreated to serve as a control. The test material was not washed from the eyes.
Observation period (in vivo):
1, 24, 48, 72 hours and day 4 when no irritation was observed
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
6
Details on study design:
A group of six albino rabbits was used for the study. Each animal received a single, unwashed exposure of 0.1 ml of the test article instilled into the lower conjunctival sac of the right eye. The eyelid was held closed for approximately one second and released. The left eye was manipulated in a similar manner as the right eye and served as a contralateral control. Mortality checks were conducted twice daily and body weights were recorded at day 0 and termination. Animals were observed at 1, 24, 48, 72 hours and through day 4 for eye irritation in accordance with the method of Draize.

Conclusions:
In accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 this substance is not classified as an eye irritant.
Executive summary:

The eye irritation potential of OS 84147H was evaluated in accordance with OECD Guidline 405. A group of six albino rabbits was used for the study. Each animal received a single, unwashed exposure of 0.1 ml of the test article instilled into the lower conjunctival sac of the right eye. The eyelid was held closed for approximately one second and released. The left eye was manipulated in a similar manner as the right eye and served as a contralateral control. Mortality checks were conducted twice daily and body weights were recorded at day 0 and termination. Animals were observed at 1, 24, 48, 72 hours and through day 4 for eye irritation in accordance with the method of Draize. No mortality or effects on body weight were observed. Mean 24, 48, and 72 hour corneal, iris and conjunctival erythema and chemosis scores were 0, 0, 0.95 and 0.33, respectively. Based on these results this substance is not classified as an eye irritant in accordance with EU CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.

Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Additional information

All available skin irritation and eye irritation data available demonstrate that the substance tested was not irritanting to skin or eyes.

Data are presented only using in vivo methods as these data were available for the substance. In vitro data are considered not justifiable scientifically or by expense as the data are not likely to provide any additional contribution to the conclusion available from the in vivo data.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the data available for skin and eye irritation, exposure to the substance gives rise to no adverse reactions. The substance is, therefore, considered to be not irritating to skin or eyes.
