Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
In accordance with EU CLP Regulation No. 1272/2008 classification of this substance is not required for eye irritation.
Executive summary:

Test Guidance

Eye irritation study performed by a similar method to 16 CFR 1500.42 of the Federal Hazardous Substances Act,

 

Method and Material

0.1 mL of the test material was instilled into the right eye of six young adult Newzeland rabbits. The left eye served as the untreated control. The test material was not washed from the eye. Treated eyes were examined at 1, 2, 3 and 4 days following treatment. Interpretation of results was made in accordance with the Draize scale.

Results

No effects on the cornea or iris were observed in any animal at any observation period (all scores were 0). The average conjunctivae score was 0.89 at 24, 48 and 72 hour. The average chemosis score was 0.17 at 24, 48 and 72 hour. All observed effects were fully reversible in 4 days.

Conclusion

In accordance with EU CLP Regulation No. 1272/2008 classification of this substance is not required for eye irritation.
