Results and discussion

In vitro

Results
Irritation parameter:
percent corneal swelling
Value:
4
Negative controls validity:
valid
Positive controls validity:
valid
Remarks on result:
no indication of irritation
Other effects / acceptance of results:
In this ICET, IRON GLYCINATE did not cause ocular corrosion or severe irritation in the enucleated chicken eyes. The overall ICE classes were once I (based on the corneal swelling of 4% within 240 minutes), once II (based on the fluorescein retention of 0.8) and once III (based on the corneal opacity score of 1.7).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
According to the guideline OECD 438, IRON GLYCINATE overall in vitro classification is neither UN GHS Classification Category I (an ocular corrosive or severe eye irritant) nor No Category. Thus, according to the guideline OECD 438, test item has been categorized as “No prediction can be made”.
