Irritant / corrosive response data:
A slight to moderate conjunctival reaction was seen in all treated eyes one hour after application of the compound. This had subsided slightly by 24 hours and thereafter continued to do so until all eyes were normal by 48 hours (1/3 washed) 72 hours (2/3 unwashed 2/3 washed) and 6 days (1/3 unwashed). Staining of the conjunctivae and cornea by the compound was seen in the unwashed eyes for up to 40 hours.
Other effects:
None

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
FAT 20043/B is a minimal eye irritant in the albino rabbit.
Executive summary:

A study was performed to determine the eye irriattion potential of FAT 20043/B in rabbits according to with the procedure set out in the "Hazardous Substances Regulations" under the U.S.A. "Federal Hazardous Substances Labelling Act Sect. 191.12 (February 1965), with slight modification. 100 mg of the test compound were instilled into the conjunctival sac of the left eye. The eyelids were then held closed for 1 second. The right eye served as a control. After 30 seconds the compound was, as far as possible, flushed out of the eyes' of three of the rabbits with warm water for 1 minute. There was no effects observed for cornea and iris at 24 and 48 h observation period, however redness and discharge were seen but get reversed after 72 hrs. In conclusion, FAT 20043/B is a minimal eye irritant in the albino rabbit and based on the finding in the eye irritation studies, the test substance does not need to be classified according to Directive 67/548/EEC and according to EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
