Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye)
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The study was terminated after a hour as severe irritation was apparent. No further details. Since it is not possible to judge the reversibilty of these effect and the scores at all the highest level the substance is classified corrosive to the eyes.
Executive summary:

A eye irritation/corrosion study was performed according to OECD guidelines and GLP. In a single animal 0.1 g of test substance was instilled in the eye. The study was terminated after a hour as severe irritation was apparent. No further details. Since it is not possible to judge the reversibility of these effect and the scores are at the highest level the substance is classified corrosive to the eyes.
