Description of key information
Data from OECD 404 guideline studies on MI3 and X14DesB30 indicate no potential for skin irritation. Due to very close structural similarities a lack of skin irritation potential can be concluded for Insulin DesB30 as well.
Data from OECD 405 guideline studies on MI3 and X14DesB30 indicate no potential for eye irritation. Due to very close structural similarity to Insulin DesB30
a lack of eye irritation potential can be concluded for Insulin DesB30 as well.

A single dose of 0.5 mL X14DesB30 was applied to a 30 x 20 mm area on the clipped dorsum of each of three rabbits, one male and two female rabbits. A semi- occlusive bandage covered the treated area of skin for 4 hours and dermal reactions to treatment were assessed for up to nine days after removal of the dressings. All animals were killed by an intravenous injection of an overdose of barbiturate at Day four or Day nine. Transient petechial hemorrhage was observed as a result of mechanical trauma caused by removal of the dose residuals. Summarized, X14DesB30 did not cause any notable dermal reactions and classified not to cause skin irritation.

- Ophthalmoscopic findings: A darkned/red area appeared aorund the iris approximately four hours after instillation in the sentinel animal, but had disappeared by the 24 hour assessment. However, a residual dark speck in the iris appeared from Day 3 to Day 5, and disappeared at Day 6.

- Conclusions:
- The Study was conducted to determine the irritation caused to the rabbit eye following a single instillation of MI3 into the conjunctival sac. The study was designed in accordance with OECD guideline method 405. One male and two female rabbits received a single instillation of 0.1 mL MI3 into the conjunctival sac of the eye. There was no indicative of systemic toxicity or ill health for any of the rabbits. The instillation caused slight changes in the conjunctivae that resolved within 24 or 48-hours. An exception was a persistent dark speck in the edge of the iris of the sentinel rabbit only. The cornea of each eye was overtly unaffected.
- Executive summary:
The Study was conducted to determine the irritation caused to the rabbit eye following a single instillation of MI3 into the conjunctival sac. The study was designed in accordance with OECD guideline method 405, the commission directive 92/69/EEC, Method B5, and the US EPA Health effects test Guidelines OPPTS 870.2400. One male and two female rabbits received a single instillation of 0.1 mL MI3 into the conjunctival sac of the eye. There was no indicative of systemic toxicity or ill health for any of the rabbits. The instillation caused practically no initial sting reaction in two animals and a moderate sting reaction in the third. Only minimal effects were observed after instillation of MI3 to eyes of all three animals. These effects were a slight reddening of the conjunctivae, a slight injection of the conjunctival vasculature, and production of a very slight discharge which all disappeared after 24 or 48-hours. An exception was a persistent dark speck in the edge of the iris of the sentinel rabbit only. The cornea of each eye was overtly unaffected.

SCORING SYSTEM: Standard grading scheme (SGS) graded 0 to 4 (where 0 is no response and 4 is the most severe response).
The following endpoints were evaluated/scored (Sting repsonse; Cornea - degree of opacity; Cornea -area of corneal opacity; Iris; Conjunctivae- redness; Conjunctivae - chemosis, and Conjunctivae -discharge).

- Conclusions:
- The study was designed in accordance with OECD guideline method 405. One male and two female rabbits received a single instillation of 0.1 mL X14DesB30 into the conjunctival sac of the eye. There was no indicative of systemic toxicity or ill health for any of the rabbits. The instillation caused in all three rabbits slight changes in the conjunctivae and iris. The cornea of each eye was overtly unaffected and all reactions had overtly resolved within 48 hours of instillation.
- Executive summary:
The study was designed in accordance with OECD guideline method 405, the commission directive 92/69/EEC, Method B5, and the US EPA Health effects test Guidelines OPPTS 870.2400. One male and two female rabbits received a single instillation of 0.1 mL X14DesB30 into the conjunctival sac of the eye. There was no indicative of systemic toxicity or ill health for any of the rabbits. The instillation caused practically no initial sting reaction in the sentinel rabbit and a slight to moderate sting reaction in the second and third animal. Only minimal effects were observed after instillation of X14DesB30 to eyes of all three animals e.g. slight swelling of conjunctiva and production of ocular discharge. The sentinel rabbit showed a slight injection of the iris and conjunctiva and slight conjunctival swelling, that all had completely resolved by 48 hours. No corneal or iridal changes were apparent for the second and third rabbit. All reactions had overtly resolved within 48 hours of instillation.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
Insulin DesB30 is, based on read-across from in vivo data on MI3 and X13DesB30, not considered to be a skin or eye irritant. Thus, no CLP-classification should apply for skin and eye irritation of the substance.
