Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: OECD Guideline on this test
Conclusions:
Under the condition of this study strontium ferrite is not considered as ocular corrosive or severe irritant using Isolated Chicken Eye Test Method.
Executive summary:

In-vitro eye irritation (and in-vitro eye corrosion) was tested by using isolated chicken eyes. The test guideline was "OECD Guideline for the Testing of Chemicals: Isolated Chicken Eyes Test Method for Identifying Ocular Corrosives and Severe Irritants. Adopted: 7 Sep 2009" which follows OECD Guideline 438.

The test substance strontium ferrite as well as a postive control (sodium hydroxide) and a negative control (0.9 % sodium chloride saline) were applied to isolated chicken eyes. The endponts evaluated were:

1. corneal opacity

2. fluorescein retention

3. adverse morphological effects.

Based on the results,

For the test substance strontium ferrite, the mean maximum opacity score after treatment is 1.0 (Class II); the mean fluorescein retention score at 30 min after treatment is 0.8 (Class II). No adverse morphological effect was observed in all the seven ICEs during the observation period. He

nce, the test substance is not considered as ocular corrosive or severe irritant.

For positive control substance, the mean maximum opacity score after treatment is 3.0 (Class IV); the mean fluorescein retention score at 30 min after treatment is 1.7 (Class III). The corneal opacity of all the three eyes was 2 at 30 min after treatment. Hence, the positive control substance is considered as ocular corrosive or severe irritant.

 For negative control substance, the mean maximum opacity score after treatment is 1.0 (Class II); the mean fluorescein retention score at 30 min after treatment is 0.5 (Class I). Hence, the negative control substance is not considered as ocular corrosive or severe irritant.

Under the condition of the study strontium ferrite is not considered as ocular corrosive or severe irritant using Isolated Chicken Eye Test Method.
