Irritant / corrosive response data:
No or only very slight irritation occurred after the application of 0.1 ml of Stoddard solvent to the eyes of six rabbits. One hour after application one of the rabbits showed mild injection and swelling of the conjunctiva. However, these signs of irritative response disappeared after 24 h

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not irritating
Conclusions:
The eyes of six rabbits were treated with the test substance and observed for 7 days. Results indicate that the substance was not irritating .
One hour after application one of the rabbits showed mild injection and swelling of the conjunctiva. However, these signs of irritative response disappeared after 24 h
Result: not irritating at 0.1 mL.

Executive summary:

No or only very slight irritation occurred after the application of 0.1 ml of Stoddard solvent to the eyes of six rabbits. One hour after application one of the rabbits showed mild injection and swelling of the conjunctiva. However, these signs of irritative response disappeared after 24 h
