Eye irritation

Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
eye irritation: in vitro / ex vivo
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is classified as skin irritation and the available information indicates that it should be classified as eye irritation (Category 2)
Justification for type of information:
The low pH in the range of 2 - 4 and indications of skin irritation suggest that classification is necessary.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
data waiving: supporting information
Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
adverse effect observed (irreversible damage)

Respiratory irritation

Endpoint conclusion
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The test material showed low level of response and can be considered to be non-irritant to skin and eyes with respect to GHS criteria.

Historical animal studies on this class of substance confirm low levels of irritancy.
