Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test item is considered to be not irritating to the rabbit eye and is not classified in accordance with CLP Regulation No (EC) 1272/2008.
Executive summary:

An in vivo study was performed to assess the the eye irritation potential of the test item in New Zealand white rabbit, according to OECD Guideline 405, in compliance with GLP. A single application of the test item to the non-irrigated eye of three rabbits produced moderate conjunctival irritation. One treated eye appeared normal at the 48 hour observation and two treated eyes appeared normal at the 72 hour observation. Based on the classification criteria for eye irritation according to Regulation (EC) No.
1272/2008, 9-decenoic acid, methyl ester is considered to be non-irritating to eyes (Harlan Laboratories Ltd, 2012).
