Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
Remarks:
Migrated information
Conclusions:
According to the study conducted, Phosphorodithioic acid, O,O-bis(2-ethylhexyl) ester, zinc salt causes persistent eye irritation through 21 days. Rinsing the test material out of the eyes 30 seconds after the exposure resulted in eye irrtation that was reversible within 21 days.
