Number of animals: 3 Males.
Age and body weight: Animals used within the study were at least 6 weeks old and body weights were at least 1.0 kg.
Identification: Earmark.

ANIMAL HUSBANDRY
Conditions: Animals were housed in a controlled environment, in which optimal conditions were considered to be approximately 15 air changes per hour, a temperature of 21.0 ± 3.0°C (actual range: 16.1-23.0°C), a relative humidity of 30-70% (actual range: 43 -79%) and 12 hours artificial fluorescent light and 12 hours darkness per day. Cleaning procedures in the room might have caused the temporary fluctuations above the optimal maximum level of 70% for relative humidity. Based on laboratory historical data, these fluctuations were considered not to have affected the study integrity.
Accommodation: Individually in labelled cages with perforated floors (Scan bur, Denmark, dimensions 56x44x37.5 cm). Acclimatisation period was at least 5 days before start of treatment under laboratory conditions.
Diet: Standard laboratory rabbit diet (Charles River Breeding and Maintenance Diet for Rabbits,
Altromin, Lage, Germany) approx. 100 g per day. In addition, pressed hay (BMI, Helmond, the Netherlands) was provided twice a week.
Water: Free access to tap-water.
Type of coverage:
semiocclusive
Preparation of test site:
clipped
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
yes, concurrent no treatment
Amount / concentration applied:
Each animal was treated by dermal application of 0.5 ml of the test substance.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
4 hours.
Observation period:
72 hours.
Number of animals:
3 male rabbits
Details on study design:
TREATMENT
All available data relevant to the potential dermal irritation/corrosivity of the substance indicated that no severe effects were to be expected. An in-vitro skin irritation test was considered, but no validated test was found available. Therefore, this in-vivo skin irritation study was started by treatment of a single rabbit (sentinel). The two other animals were treated in a similar manner 7 days later, after considering the degree of skin irritation observed in the first animal.
Approximately 24 hours before treatment, the dorsal fur was clipped with electric clippers, exposing an area of approximately 150 square centimetres (10x15 cm2). Whenever considered necessary the treated skin areas were re-clipped at least 3 hours before the observations, to facilitate scoring.
A health inspection was performed prior to the commencement of treatment, to ensure that the animals were in a good state of health. Special attention was paid to the skin to be treated, which was intact and free from abnormalities.
Each animal was treated by dermal application of 0.5 ml of the test substance. The test substance was applied to the skin of one flank, using a metalline patch of 2x3 cm. The patch was mounted on Micropore tape, which was wrapped around the abdomen and secured with Coban elastic bandage. Four hours after the application, the dressing was removed and the skin cleaned of residual test substance using water.

OBSERVATIONS
Mortality/Viability: Twice daily.
Toxicity: At least once daily.
Body Weight: Day of treatment (prior to application) and at termination.
Irritation: The skin reactions were assessed at approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the removal of the dressings and test substance.
The irritation scores and a description of all other (local) effects were recorded. Adjacent areas of the untreated skin of each animal served as controls.

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Not irritating.
Executive summary:

Primary skin irritation/corrosion study with HATCOL 3331 in the rabbit (4-hour semi-occlusive application).

The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in: EC Commission Directive 92/69/EEC, B4, "Acute Toxicity - Skin irritation", OECD No 404, "Acute Dermal Irritation/Corrosion", US EPA, OPPTS 870.2500, Acute Dermal Irritation and JMAFF, JapaneseTest Guidelines.

Three rabbits were exposed to 0.5 ml of HATCOL 3331, applied onto clipped skin for 4 hours using a semi-occlusive dressing. Observations were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after exposure.

Exposure to HATCOL 3331 resulted in very slight erythema and/or very slight oedema in the treated skin-areas of the rabbits, which had resolved within 24 hours in two animals and within48 hours in the other animal.

Sticky remnants of the test substance were present on the edges of the treated skin area on day 1.

Based on the results and according to the EC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Council Directive 67/548/EEC), HATCOL 3331 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for skin irritation.

Details on animal used as source of test system:
EpiDerm™ tissues, Lot 19981 Kit D, were received from MatTek Corporation (Ashland, MA) on 08 Apr 2014 and refrigerated at approximately 4'C. Before use, tissues were incubated (37°C ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2) with assay medium (MatTek) for a one-hour equilibration. Equilibration medium was replaced with fresh medium before dosing.
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on test system:
Test Article Reduction of MTT: 100 µI of the test article were mixed with 1 ml of MTT solution (1 mg/ml Methyl thiazole tetrazolium diluted in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM)). A Negative Control, 100 µI of tissue culture water, was tested concurrently. The solutions were incubated at room temperature in the dark for 60 minutes. After incubation, the solutions were visually inspected for purple coloration, which indicates that the test article reduced MTT. Since tissue Viability is based on MTT reduction, direct reduction by a test article can exaggerate viability, making a test article seem less irritating than it really is. The test article did not reduce MTT and the assay continued as per the protocol.Mesh Compatibility: Pre-cut nylon meshes supplied with the tissues were placed on a slide and 30 µI of the test article or tissue culture water were applied. After 60 minutes exposure, the mesh was checked microscopically. No interaction between the test article or tissue culture water and the mesh was observed so the test article was dosed using the mesh as a spreading aid.Dosing: 50 µI of the test article were applied to the top of each EpiDerm™ tissue. A nylon mesh was then placed on top to facilitate even distribution of the test article. The test article remained in contact with the EpiDerm™ tissue for 3 and 60 minutes. A Negative Control (TCH2O) and a Positive Control (KOH) were tested at 3 and 60 minutes. A nylon mesh was placed on top of each liquid control to facilitate even distribution of the material. Each treatment with test article or control was conducted in duplicate.All tissues were dosed at ambient temperature. Tissues treated with the test article and controls for 3 minutes were maintained at ambient temperature until analyzed for Tissue Viability (MTT Reduction). Tissues to be treated for 60 minutes were dosed and then returned to the Incubator (37°C ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2) for the remainder of the 60-minute exposure periodTissue Viability (MTT Reduction): At the end of the exposure period, each EpiDerm™ tissue was rinsed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and transferred to a 24-well plate containing 300 µI of MTT solution (1 mg/ml MTT in DMEM). The tissues were then returned to the Incubator for a three-hour MTT incubation period. Following the MTT incubation period, each EpiDerm™ tissue was rinsed with PBS and then treated overnight with 2.0 ml of extractant solution (isopropanol) per well. The absorbency of an aliquot of the extracted MTT formazan was measured In triplicate at 540 nm using a microplate reader (µQuant Plate Reader, BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT).Analysis of Data: The mean absorbance value for each time point was calculated from the optical density (OD) of the duplicate tissues and expressed as percent viability for each sample using the following formula:% viability = 100 X (OD sample/OD Negative Control)Quality Controls: The Negative Controls meets the acceptance criterion if the mean OD of the two tissues at each time point is greater than or equal to 0.8 and is less than or equal to 2.8 (0.8 ≤ OD ≤ 2.8).The Positive Control meets the acceptance criterion If the mean relative tissue viability at the 60 minute time point is less than 15% < 15%).Inter-tissue viability meets the acceptance criterion if the difference between two identically treated tissues is no greater than 30%. Re-testing of the chemical is recommended if the resulting viability is near to a classification cut-off. Note: If necessary, the percent difference will be calculated between the mean of the two tissues and one of the tissues. If this difference is greater than 15%, then rejection should be considered.Interpretation of Results: Skin Corrosion is defined as the production of irreversible tissue damage in skin following the application of test material. The percent viability calculated was used to determine corrosivity potential in the following manner:Mean Viability Mean Viability(3 min.) (60 min.) Predicted Corrosivity<50% Not Applicable Corrosive≥50% <15% Corrosive≥50% ≥15% Non-Corrosive

A Negative Control (phosphate buffered saline (PBS)) and a Positive Control (5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution, MatTek) were tested concurrently, with a nylon mesh placed on top to facilitate even distribution of the material. Each treatment with test article or control was conducted in triplicate.The exposure period for the test article and controls was 60 minutes. The dosed tissues were placed in an incubator at 37° ± 1°C, 5% ± 1% CO2 for 35 ± 1 minutes, then returned to the sterile hood for the remainder of the 60-minute exposure period.After dosing and incubation, the tissues were rinsed with PBS, blotted to remove the test substance and dry the tissue, and transferred to fresh medium. The rinsed EpiDerm™ tissues were returned to the incubator for 24 ± 2 hours. Medium was changed at 24 ± 2 hours. Tissues were returned to the incubator for an additional 18 ± 2 hours.Tissue Viability (MTT Reduction): At the end of the incubation period, each EpiDerm™ tissue was rinsed with phosphate buffered saline (PBS) and transferred to a 24-well plate containing 300 µI of MTT solution (1 mg/ml MTT in DMEM). The tissues were then returned to the incubator for a three-hour MTT incubation period. Following the MTT incubation period, each EpiDerm TM tissue was rinsed with PBS and then treated with 2.0 ml of extractant solution (isopropanol) per well for at least two hours, with shaking, at room temperature. Two aliquots of the extracted MTT formazan were measured at 540 nm using a plate reader (µQuant Plate Reader, BioTek Instruments, Winooski, VT).Analysis of Data: The mean absorbance value for each time point was calculated from the optical density (OD) of the duplicate samples and expressed as percent viability for each sample using the following formula:% viability =100 X (OD sample/OD Negative Control)Quality Controls: The assay meets the acceptance criterion if the mean OD540 of the Negative Control tissues is ≥ 1.0 and ≤ 2.5, and the mean viability of Positive Control tissues, expressed as percentage of the Negative Control tissues, is ≤ 20%.

Thickening of the skin at the application site was seen on one animal between 4 and 7 days after application. No other signs of irritations were observed.
Other effects:
Yellow staining by the test sample was observed at the application site of one animal one day after application but this did not obscure the assessment of any erythema that was present.

Number of animals: 3 Males.
Age and body weight: Animals used within the study were at least 6 weeks old and bodyweights were at least 1.0 kg.
Identification: Earmark.

ANIMAL HUSBANDRY
Conditions: Animals were housed in a controlled environment, in which optimal conditions were considered to be approximately 15 air changes per hour, a temperature of 21.0:! 3.0°C (actual range: 18.1 - 23.9°C), a relative humidity of 30-70% (actual range: 44 - 81%) and 12 hours artificial fluorescent light and 12 hours darkness per day. Cleaning procedures in the room might have caused the temporary fluctuations above the optimal maximum level of 70% for relative humidity. Based on laboratory historical data, these fluctuations were considered not to have affected the study integrity.
Accommodation: Individually in labelled cages with perforated floors (Scanbur, Denmark, dimensions 56x44x37.5 cm). Acclimatisation period was at least 5 days before start of treatment under laboratory conditions.
Diet: Standard laboratory rabbit diet (Charles River Breeding and Maintenance Diet for Rabbits, Altromln, Lage, Germany) approx. 100 g per day.
Water: Free access to tap-water.
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
yes, concurrent no treatment
Amount / concentration applied:
Each animal was treated by instilation of 0.1 ml of the test substance in the conjunctival sac of one of the eyes after gently pullng the lower lid away from the eyeball.
Duration of treatment / exposure:
24 hours
Observation period (in vivo):
72 hours
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3
Details on study design:
This eye irritation study was started by treatment of a single rabbit (sentinel). The two other animals were treated in a similar manner 7 days later, after considering the degree of eye irritation observed in the first animal.
A health inspection was performed prior to commencement of treatment, to ensure that the animals were in a good state of health. Special attention was paid to the eyes, which were free from any abnormality.
Each animal was treated by instillation of 0.1 ml of the test substance in the conjunctival sac of one of the eyes after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for about one second to prevent loss of the test substance. The other eye remained untreated and served as the reference control.
Immediately after the 24-hour observation, a solution of 2% fluorescein in water (adjusted to pH 7.0) was instilled into both eyes of each animal to quantitatively determine corneal epithelial damage. Any bright green stained area, indicating epithelial damage, was estimated as a percentage of the total corneal area.

OBSERVATIONS
Mortality/Viability: Twice daily.
Toxicity: At least once daily.
Body Weight: Day of treatment (prior to instillation) and at termination.
Irritation: The eyes of each animal were examined approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation of the test substance. The irritation scores and a description of all other (local) effects were recorded.
The irritation was assessed according to the following numerical scoring system.

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Irritation: Instillation of 0.1 ml of the test substance into one eye of each of three rabbits resulted in irritation of the conjunctivae, which was seen as redness and chemosis. The irritation had completely resolved within 24 hours in all animals.
No iridial irritation or corneal opacity was observed, and treatment of the eyes with 2% fluorescein, 24 hours after test substance instillation revealed no corneal epithelial damage in any of the animals.
Corrosion: There was no evidence of ocular corrosion.
Other effects:
Colouration/Remnants: No staining was observed and no remnants of the test substance were seen on (peri) ocular tissues.
Toxicity/Mortality: No symptoms of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred.

Executive summary:

Acute eye irritation/corrosion study with HATCOL 3331 in the rabbit.

The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in: EC Commission Directive92169/EEC, B.5, "Acute Toxicity - Eye irritation", OECD No.405, "Acute Eye Irritation/Corrosion"and US EPA, OPPTS 870.2400, Acute Eye Irritation, EPA 712-C-98-195, August 1998.

Single samples of 0.1 ml of HATCOL 3331 were instilled into one eye of each of three rabbits.

Observations were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation.

Instillation of the test substance resulted in irritation of the conjunctivae, which was seen as redness and chemosis. The irritation had completely resolved within 24 hours in all animals.

Based on these results and according to the EC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Council Directive 67/548/EEC), HATCOL 3331 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for eye irritation.

Conclusions:
HATCOl 3344 does not have to be classifed and has no obligatory labellng requirement for eye Irritation.
Executive summary:

Acute eye Irritation/corrosion study with HATCOL 3344 in the rabbit.

The study was carried out based on the guidelines described in: EC Commission Directive 92/69/EEC, B.5, "Acute Toxicity - Eye irritation", OECD No 405, "Acute Eye Irritation/Corrosion"and US EPA, OPPTS 870.2400, Acute Eye Irritation, EPA 712-C-98-195, August 1998.

Single samples of 0.1 ml of HATCOL 334 were instilled into one eye of each of three rabbits.

Observations were made 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation.

Instillation of the test substance resulted in Irritation of the conjunctivae, which was seen as redness and chemosis. The irritation had completely resolved within 24 hours in all animals.

Based on these results and according to the EC criteria for classification and labelling requirements for dangerous substances and preparations (Council Directive 67/548/EEC), HATCOL 334 does not have to be classified and has no obligatory labelling requirement for eye irritation.

TREATMENT
A health inspection was performed prior to commencement of treatment, to ensure that the animals were in a good state of health. Special attention was paid to the eyes, which were free from any abnormality.
Each animal was treated by instillation of 0.1 ml of the test substance in the conjunctival sac of one of the eyes after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for about one second to prevent loss of the test substance. The other eye remained untreated and served as the reference control.
Immediately after the 24-hour observation, a solution of 2% fluorescein in water (adjusted to pH 7.0) was instilled into both eyes of each animal to quantitatively determine corneal epithelial damage. Any bright green stained area, indicating epithelial damage, was estimated as a percentage of the total corneal area.
Mortality/Viability: Twice daily.
Toxicity: At least once daily.
Body Weight: Day of treatment (prior to instillation) and at termination.
Irritation: The eyes of each animal were examined approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation of the test substance. The irritation scores and a description of all other (local) effects were recorded.

Pretest ProceduresFresh assay solutions were prepared prior to use. MEM solution was prepared by stirring together one jar of MEM powder (sufficient to make one liter of solution), 2.2 g Sodium Bicarbonate, 0.292 g L-Glutamine, 10 ml of Fetal Bovine Serum (FBS) and brought to a final volume of 1000 ml with distilled water. The MEM solution was kept in a 32°C (± 1°C) incubator for the duration of testing. Hanks Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) was prepared by stirring together one jar of HBSS powder (sufficient to make one liter), 0.35 g Sodium Bicarbonate and brought to a final volume of 1000 ml with distilled water. HBSS was maintained at room temperature.In addition, MEM solution with Phenol Red was prepared by stirring together 9.3 g MEM with Phenol Red (sufficient to make one liter), 2.2 g Sodium Bicarbonate, 0.292 g L-Glutamine, 10 mL Fetal bovine Serum and brought to a final volume of 1000 mL with distilled water. The MEM solution with Phenol Red was kept in a 32°C (± 1°C) incubator for the duration of testing.The eyes were examined prior to use on the day of dosing. Any eye with a cornea exhibiting evidence of vascularization, pigmentation, opacity or scratches was discarded.Corneas from eyes that were free of defects were dissected from the surrounding tissues. A 2-3 mm rim of sclera was left attached to each cornea. The Corneas were then placed in a container of fresh HBSS.The dissected Corneas were mounted in specially designed holders that were separated into anterior and posterior chambers and filled separately. Each Cornea was mounted allowing the epithelium of the Cornea to project into the anterior chamber. The posterior chamber was filled with MEM solution ensuring contact with the endothelium. The anterior chamber was filled with MEM solution, ensuring contact with the epithelium. Each Cornea was visually inspected again to ensure there were no defects.The entire holder was incubated at 32°C (± 1°C) and allowed to equilibrate for at least one hour but not longer than two hours.Following the equilibration period, a pre-exposure (baseline) determination of opacity was made for each cornea by measuring each against the blank supplied with the opacitometer. Any cornea with a value greater than 7 opacity units was discarded.Study ProcedureFollowing the pretest observations, the MEM solution was removed from the anterior chamber. Using the closed chamber method, a volume of 0.75 ml of the ethanol, MEM or liquid test article was applied to the epithelium of each of the three positive controls, three negative controls, or three test article-treated corneas in a manner, which ensured the entire cornea was covered.All holders and corneas were placed in a horizontal position (anterior side up) in the 32°C (± 1°C) incubator. After 10 (± 1) minutes, the test article, ethanol or MEM solution in the controls were removed from the epithelium of the cornea and anterior chamber of the holder by washing with MEM solution containing phenol red. Following the 1O-minute (±1 minute) exposure, the corneal epithelium was thoroughly rinsed with MEM solution containing phenol red until the test article, ethanol, or MEM solution (in the negative controls) were washed off. A final rinse was made with MEM without phenol red. The anterior and posterior chambers of the holders were refilled with fresh MEM solution. Opacity measurements were made following the 10-minute exposure and MEM solution refill.All corneas were incubated at 32°C (± 1°G) for an additional two hours at which time the MEM solution in the anterior and posterior chambers was removed and the holders refilled with fresh MEM solution. A measurement of opacity was taken with each treated cornea compared to the blank supplied with the OPKIT. This reading was used in the final IVIS calculations.The corneas were visually inspected for abnormalities immediately following the 10-minute exposure period, and again at 2 hours post-exposure. There were no abnormalities noted.Immediately following the two-hour opacity measurement, the MEM solution was removed from the anterior chamber and replaced with 1.0 ml of 0.4% sodium fluorescein solution in Dulbecco's Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS). Each holder was returned to the 32°C (±1°C) incubator in a horizontal position (anterior side up) ensuring contact of the fluorescein with the cornea.After 90 (± 5) minutes, the fluid from the posterior chamber was removed and the amount of dye, which passed through the cornea (permeability), was measured as the optical density at 490 nm by a spectrophotometer. A 1: 1000 dilution of the fluorescein was prepared and measured in the spectrophotometer as a measure of consistency.Analysis of DataIndividual corrected opacity scores were calculated by subtracting the pretest score from the ten minute and two-hour scores. Corrected mean opacity scores were calculated by averaging the individual two-hour corrected opacity scores for a given dose group and subtracting the mean opacity score for the negative control group. A corrected mean opacity score was not calculated for the negative control rather only the mean of the individual two-hour corrected opacity scores were calculated (with no subtraction of mean opacity score for negative control).Individual corrected optical densities were calculated by subtracting the mean optical density for the negative control group from the individual optical density values. Individual corrected optical densities were not calculated for the negative control group. Corrected mean optical densities were calculated by averaging the individual corrected optical density values for a given dose group. A corrected mean optical density was not calculated for the negative control, rather only the mean of the individual optical densities.The In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS) for the test article and positive control were calculated by adding the corrected mean opacity score to fifteen times the corrected mean optical density as shown by the equation below. The calculations to obtain an IVIS for the positive control was performed in the same manner as the test article.In Vitro Irritancy Score = Corrected Mean+15 (Corrected Mean Optical Density Score) (IVIS) Opacity ScoreOECD Guideline #437 defies a substance, which produces an IVIS of >55.1 as Category 1, a substance that causes “Serious eye damage”.IVISUN GHS≤ 3No Category>3; ≤55No prediction can be made>55Category 1

A GLP study was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline 431; based on the results of this study, H2925 (CAS No. 68130-53-0), Lot# 2013090401 is considered to be non-corrosive.

A GLP study H2925 was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline 439; based on the results of this study, H2925 (CAS No. 68130-53-0), Lot# 2013090401 is considered to be a non-irritant and therefore it is not classified in accordance with the CLP Regulation.

Three in vivo skin irritation studies are also available for read-across substances:

The first study was conducted with CAS 11138-60-6 in accordance with OECD Guideline 404. No cutaneous reactions occurred in the 3 New Zealand White rabbits tested. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the skin.

The second study was conducted with CAS 91050-89-4 in accordance with OECD Guideline 404. After 24 h, 3 animals (New Zealand White rabbits) showed erythema, which persisted in 1 animal for 48 h. 72 h after exposure, all animals were free of erythema. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the skin.

The third study was conducted with CAS 78-16-0 in accordance with EU Method B.4. Very slight erythema and edema were observed in all animals (3 New Zealand White rabbits) 24 h after treatment which were fully reversible latest within 72 h. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the skin.

 

A GLP study was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline 437; based on the results of this study, H2925 (CAS No. 68130-53-0), Lot# 2013090401, is not classfied as an eye irritant in accordance with the CLP Regulation.

Four in vivo eye irritation studies are available for read-across substances:

The first study was conducted with CAS 11138-60-6 in accordance with OECD Guideline 405. In 2 animals (New Zealand White rabbits) slight exudation (grade 1) was observed at 1 h. At 24 h slight exudation (grade 1) was observed in 1 animals. These effects were completely reversible at 48 h. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.

The second study was conducted with CAS 78-16-0 in accordance with guideline 16 CFR 1500.42. No effects on the cornea or iris were observed in test animals. Slight redness of the conjunctivae was observed after 24 h in 3 animals (albino rabbits) and after 48 h in 4 animals which were fully reversible in all animals within 72 h. Slight chemosis of the conjunctiva was detected in 1 animal after 24 h which was fully reversible within 48 h.Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.

The third study was conducted with CAS 91050-89-4 in accordance with OECD Guideline 405. No effects on cornea and iris were observed. Slight redness of the conjunctivae was observed both, after 10 s and after continuous treatment. The effects were obvious after 1 and 6 h. After 10 s treatment, the effects were reversible within 48 h. After continuous treatment, redness reversed within 24 h. In addition, exudation was observed in both treatment groups, being reversible within 24 h (continuous treatment) and 48 h (10 s treatment), respectively. Chemosis was not observed. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.

The fourth study was conducted with CAS 78-16-0 in accordance with OECD Guideline 405 in New Zealand White rabbits. No effects on the cornea and the iris were observed. Conjunctival effects included slight to moderate redness and slight to severe discharge. No chemosis was seen. Additional signs of irritation included erythema and dried secretion on the upper and lower eyelids and convoluted eyelids. All effects were completely reversible within 48 h after application. Therefore, it was concluded that the test substance is not irritating to the eyes.

 

In conclusion, the substance is not considered to be irritating to either the skin or the eyes.
