Irritant / corrosive response data:
A slight or moderate chemosis (grade 1 or 2) and a moderate or severe redness of the conjunctiva (grade 2 or 3) were noted in all animals 1h after the application of the test substance.
A slight chemosis and redness of the conjunctiva (grade 1) persisted in one animal within 24hrs, whereas a slight chemosis (grade 1) and moderate then slight redness of the conjunctiva (grade 2 then 1) persisted until day 3 (72 hrs) in another one .

Iris lesions were noted 1h after the application in one animal and within 24hrs in another one.

A slight corneal opacity (grade 1) was recorded in one animal 24hrs after the treatment.

Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hrs were 1.0, 0.3 and 0.0 for chemosis, 1.3, 0.3 and 0.0 for redness of the conjunctiva, 0.3, 0.0 and 0.0 for iris lesions and 0.3, 0.0 and 0.0 for corneal opacity.
Other effects:
A clear discharge was observed in all animals 1 hour after the application of the test substance. It persisted within 24hrs in one animal.
Residual test item was observed in all animals 1hr after the application of the test substance. In one animal, residues were still observed 48hrs after the start of the test.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
not eye irritating
Conclusions:
The substance is not classified according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 and its subsequent amendments on classification, labelling and packaging (CLP) of substances and mixtures.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study, the test substance was administered to New Zealand White rabbits according to OECD 405 guideline. The study was conducted in compliance with the principles of Good Laboratory Pratices.


0.1 g of the test substance was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of three rabbits without irrigation. The other eye remained untreated and was used for control purposes. Assessment of ocular damage/irritation was made approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours following treatment according to the Draize scoring method.


A slight or moderate chemosis (grade 1 or 2) and a moderate or severe redness of the conjunctiva (grade 2 or 3) were noted in all animals 1 hour after the application of the test substance. A slight chemosis and redness of the conjunctiva (grade 1) persisted in one of them within 24 hours, whereas a slight chemosis (grade 1) and moderate then slight redness of the conjunctiva (grade 2 then 1) persisted until day 3 (72 hours) in another one. Iris lesions were noted 1 hour after the application in one animal and within 24 hours in another one. A slight corneal opacity (grade 1) was recorded in one animal 24 hours after the treatment.


Mean scores calculated for each animal over 24, 48 and 72 hours were 1.0, 0.3 and 0.0 for chemosis, 1.3, 0.3 and 0.0 for redness of the conjunctiva, 0.3, 0.0 and 0.0 for iris lesions and 0.3, 0.0 and 0.0 for corneal opacity.


It was concluded that the test item was slightly irritant when applied topically to eyes.
