Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
In an eye irritation study in rabbits, the mean irritation score after 72 hours was 0.33/110.
Hence,sodium methallyl sulphonate can be considered not irritating to rabbit eyes.
Executive summary:

The ocular irritation potential of sodium methallyl sulphonate was assessed in rabbits according to  USA Interagency Regulatory Liaison Group Testing Standards and Guidelines Work Group Guidelines. Sodium methallyl sulphonate was instilled into the eyes of 6 rabbits and observed for signs of irritation. The rabbitts were scored for sugns of irritation at 24,48 and 72 hours.The mean of 6 animals at 24, 48 and 72 hours was: cornea: 0.06, iris: 0.0, conjunctiva: redness: 0.5, chemosis: 0.3.

The mean irritation score after 72 hours was 0.33/110.

Hence,sodium methallyl sulphonate can be considered not irritating to rabbit eyes.
