Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
Executive summary:

The test item Magnesium acrylate solution, 46.41%, was instilled as supplied, into one eye of each of three New Zealand rabbits at a dose of 0.1 ml. Ocular examinations were performed on both right and left eyes one hour and 24, 48 and 72 hours after treatment.

The occular reactions observed during the study have been slight to important and totally reversible in the three animals:

-at the conjunctivae level: a moderate to important redness noted 1 hour after the test item instillation and totally reversible between

days 3 and 14,

- moderate chemosis noted 1 hour after the test instillation and totally reversible between days 1 and 2,

- at the iris level: a congestion, noted 1 hour after the test item instillation in one animal and totally reversible on day 1.

According to the criteria for classification, packing and labelling of dangerous substances and preparations in accordance with the EEC Directives 67/548, 2001/59 and 1999/45, the test item Magnesium acrylate solution (46.41%) does not have to be classified.

No symbol or risk phrase is required.

In accordance with the Regulation EC No. 1272/2008 on classification , labelling and packing of substances and mixtures,

the test item does not have to be classified. No signal word or hazard statement is required.
