TEST ANIMALS
Breeder: Dr. K. Thomae GMBH Chemisch-pharmazeutische Fabrik D-7950 Biberach/Riss
Age: 12-14 weeks old
Weight at study initiation: 2420 to 2560 g. The body weight was recorded at start and on day 3 of the test.
Housing: metal cages, individually numbered ear tags
Diet: rat food -NAFAG 814, Gossau SG, ad libitum
Water: ad libitum. The quality of the drinking water was according to the specification "Schweizerisches Lebensmittelbuch" (Edition 1972)
All batches of the diet are assayed for nutritive ingredients and contaminant level by the manufacturer. Analytical results available.
Acclimatization: 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
Temperature: 20°C (+/- 3°)
Humidity: 30-70 %
Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 hours light

Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
yes, concurrent no treatment
Amount / concentration applied:
100 g
Observation period (in vivo):
The animals were checked daily for systemic symptoms and mortality.
The ocular reactions were evaluated 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after the instillation. A slit-lamp was used to facilitate the evaluation.
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3 rabbits (1 male, 2 female)
Details on study design:
The substance was placed into the conjunctival sac of the left eye of each animal, after gently pulling away the lowel lid from the eyeball.
The lids were then held togethe for about one second in order to prevent the loss of the test article.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Classification criteria according to the CLP Regulation 1272/2008 and its amendments
Conclusions:
non-irritant to albino rabbit's eye
Executive summary:

The test was carried out according to the OECD 405 Guideline, in GLP.

The substance was placed into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each animal, after gently pulling away the lower lid from the eyeball. The lids were then held together for about one second in order to prevent loss of the test material. The right eye was used as control.

Under the experimental conditions employed the substance induced irritation of the cornea and conjunctiva when applied into the conjunctival sac of albino rabbits.

The mean values of the recordings from 24 to 72 hours after application are:

Cornea (mean 24, 48, 72 hours):

animal 1: 0

animal 2: 0

animal 3: 0

Iris (mean 24, 48, 72 hours):

animal 1: 0.0

animal 2: 0.0

animal 3: 0.0

Conjuntivae-redness (mean 24, 48, 72 hours):

animal 1: 0.33

animal 2: 0.33

animal 3: 0.33

Conjuntivae-chemosis (mean 24, 48, 72 hours):

animal 1: 0.0
