Irritant / corrosive response data:
The ocular reactions observed during the study remained slight and only recorded at the conjunctivae level: very slight redness in the 3 animals on examinations times 1, 24 and 48 hours associated with a very slight chemosis in 2 animals only at the reading time 1 hour.

Any other information on results incl. tables

The result obtained, in these experimental conditions, enable to conclude that the test product MADECASSOSIDE:
- is slightly irritant for the eye (Max. O.I = 9.3) according to the classification established in the Journal Officiel de la République Française dated July 10th, 1992.
- and, must not be classified according to the criteria for the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances in compliance with the E.E.C. Directive n° 67/548 and 99/45.


 


NOTE :
If no reaction is observed at 72 hours (D3) after instillation, the study is finished. In case of persistent reactions, additional observations can be carried out at Day 4 (D4), to Day 21 (D21) in order to determine the reversible character of the lesions observed.

Executive summary:

The product MADECASSOSIDE was instilled, as supplied, into the eye of three New Zealand rabbits at the dose of 0.1 g, according to the experimental protocol established on the basis of the official method as defined in the O.E.C.D. guideline n° 405 dated February 24th, 1987 and the test method B.5 of the E.E.C. directive n° 92/69 dated December 29th, 1992.
The ocular reactions observed during the study remained slight and only recorded at the conjunctivae level: very slight redness in the 3 animals on examinations times 1, 24 and 48 hours associated with a very slight chemosis in 2 animals only at the reading time 1 hour.
In conclusion, the result obtained, in these experimental conditions, enable to conclude that the test product MADECASSOSIDE:
- is slightly irritant for the eye (Max. O.I = 9.3) according to the classification established in the
Journal Officiel de la République Française dated July 10th, 1992.
- and, must not be classified according to the criteria for the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances in compliance with the E.E.C. Directive n° 67/548 and 99/45.
