Irritant / corrosive response data:
1 h after application the conjunctivae showed evident hyperemia to diffuse crimson coloured reddenings and slight swellings. Up to 48 h evident hyperemia was noted at the conjunctivae of 2 animals, but not at later time points. No effects on iris or cornea were observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of this study the test item was not irritating to the eyes of rabbits
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study according to guidelines OECD 405 and EU B.5, 100 mg of the test item was applied to the conjunctival sac of the left eyes of 3 New Zealand Albino rabbits. 1 h after application the conjunctivae showed evident hyperemia to diffuse crimson coloured reddenings and slight swellings. Up to 48 h evident hyperemia was noted at the conjunctivae of 2 animals. The mean conjunctivae redness score of the three animals was 0.0, 0.33, and 0.67 respectively. All other scores were 0.

Under the conditions of this study the test item was not irritating to the eyes of rabbits.
