Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Executive summary:

One male and one female New Zealand white rabbit, 50 mg of the test substance/rabbit was applied into the conjunctival sac of one eye of each rabbit. The observation time was 7 days. Evaluation erythema and edma according to Draize.

The cornea and iris score was 0 at any time point. The conjunctiva and chemosis score was 0.2 out of 3 and 4, respectively.

Therefore a classification is not justified.
