aA = degree of opacity; B = Area affected; C = erythema; D = swelling; E = discharge
bScoring key
ctotal score is the sum of the following three sub-totals, with a maximum score of 110; (/) = score without/with sodium fluorescein:
1. Degree of opacity x area involved x 5
2. Iris score x 5
3. (Sum of scores for erythema, swelling and discharge) x 2
dDue to the nature and the amount of the sample dosed, a small amount was lost on dosing each rabbit.
W = White sample-like material throughout the eye
M = viscous, white material in the lower lid of the eye
G = Blistered appearance to the conjunctiva
T = Thickened appearance to the conjunctiva
P = Eye gently pried open prior to scoring
R = At the time of scoring, upon manipulation of the eyelid, the lower conjunctiva exhibited a moderate amount of blood-like material exuding from the conjunctival tissue.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category II
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The primary ocular irritancy of XPI-187 zinc borate was evaluated in compliance with the conditions specified in the regulation for the enforcement of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide and Rodenticide Act (40 CFR) the Toxic Substances Control Act (40 CFR) and the OECD guidelines.
The test material produced corneal opacity which had cleared by Day 10, iritis that with some fluctuation ultimately cleared by Day 10 and conjunctival irritation which had cleared by Day 13. Maximum total irritation scores for individual animals ranged from 8 to 33. No evidence of corrosion was noted. The test material was classified in Toxicity Category II (40 CFR 156, proposed) by ocular administration.
