unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
not required
Amount / concentration applied:
0.1 ml (not more than 100 mg) into the conjunctival sac of the left eye.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
A removing of the test article from the eyes is not prescribed in the test report.
An exposure duration can not be stated therefore.
Observation period (in vivo):
7 d
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3
Details on study design:
Preparation of the Animals:
Prior to test initiation, all animals were acclimated to laboratory conditions for at least 7 days. 24 h before treatment, the eyes of all animals were examined for potential eye lesions with an ophthalmoscope and healthy animals were subsequently earmarked for individual identification.

Preparation of the Test Article:
The test article was applied undiluted.

Procedure:
In each animal, 0.1 ml (not more than 100 mg) of the test article was introduced into the conjunctival sac of the left eye, while the right eye was used as a control.

Observations:
Using an ophthalmoscope, ocular reactions were assessed 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment. Extended observation until day 7 was necessary to determine reversibility or irreversibility of the lesions observed.
Dermal irritation was evaluated according to a same scheme as presented in the REGULATION (EC) No 44/2008, B.5.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The test article "Hydroxyambran" is to classify as "irritant to eyes" with reversible action.
Executive summary:

The acute eye iritation/corrosion of Hydroxyambran was determined according to the OECD Test Guideline 405 in rabbits.

In 2 of 3 animals a mean score of 2.0 for conjunctivae, redness with full reversibitity within 6 days was observed.

According to the classification system in the REGULATION (EU) 1272/2008 is the test article "Hydroxyambran" to classify as "irritant" with reversible action.
