Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this test, the substance is not irritating to eye.
Executive summary:

In this acute eye irritation/corrosion test, 0.05 ml of the undiluted substance has been applied in a single dose to one of the eyes of six rabbits during 16 - 18 hours. The untreated eyes served as the control. The degree of eye irritation/corrosion was evaluated by scoring lesions of conjunctiva, cornea, and iris, at 24, 48 and 72 hours. The slight irritant effect observed was full reversible within 72 hours. Based on the result of this test, the substance is not classified according to CLP.
