Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
Five animals showed slight irritation twenty-four hours after the instillation of the test material. Slight irritation was observed in four animals forty-eight hours after instillation.Seventy-two hours after the instillation of the test material slight irritation was observed in two animals. No irritation was observed in all the animals on day four. The overall scores for cornea, iris and conjunctivae after 7 days were 0 in all the rabbits. Based on the scores and observations, the test substance was considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
Executive summary:

The purpose of the study was to assess the effects of test chemical on the eye mucosa of rabbits. The study was performed according to a modification of the method as described in the Code of Federal Regulations, section 1500.42 Guidelines. 6 New Zealand albino rabbits were used for the study.0.1 ml undiluted test chemical was instilled in the left eye of the rabbits, while the right eye remained untreated and served as control. The treated eyes remained unwashed throughout the study. The treated eyes were observed and scored at 24, 48, and 72 hours as well as on days 4 and 7 after the instillation of the test material. Five animals showed slight irritation twenty-four hours after the instillation of the test material. Slight irritation was observed in four animals forty-eight hours after instillation. Seventy-two hours after the instillation of the test material slight irritation was observed in two animals. No irritation was observed in all the animals on day four. The overall scores for cornea, iris and conjunctivae after 7 days were 0 in all the rabbits. Based on the scores and observations, the test substance was considered to be not irritating to rabbit eyes.
