Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 mL
- Concentration (if solution): undiluted
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hours
Observation period (in vivo):
up to 72 hours
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

Details on study design:
The test item was applied to the left eye of each rabbit. The contra-lateral eye served as intra-individual control. Evaluation 1, 7, 24, 48, and 72 hours after test item application by means of a magnifying lens. After 24 hours the eyes were rinsed with physiological saline solution. At 48 and 72 hours evaluation, fluorescein staining was used to verify the absence of corneal lesions.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
All animals: Nictitating membranes and conjunctive bluish stained up to 24 hours
Cornea minimally bluish stained in 5 rabbits on Day 1, still visible in 3 rabbits on Day 3. Due to the short post-observation period an the fact that the staining proved already to be reversible in 2 rabbits up to the end of the observation time. Full reversibility of the staining within a 21 day post-observation time is very likely.
