Results and discussion

In vitro

Results
Irritation parameter:
in vitro irritation score
Run / experiment:
BCOP
Value:
3.8
Vehicle controls validity:
valid
Negative controls validity:
valid
Positive controls validity:
valid
Remarks on result:
no indication of irritation
Other effects / acceptance of results:
In vitro scores were as follows:
-Ve control (saline solution) = 2.4
+Ve control (known irritant) = 153.6
Test Item = 3.8

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Based on the in vitro test results for the effect of this substance on bovine corneal opacity and permeability, the score results were of the same order as the -ve control used (saline solution) and thus deemed to be not irritating to eyes.
