Test animals / tissue source
- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- Vienna White
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- TEST ANIMALS
- Source: White Vienna animals from Gaukler; D-6050 Offenbach/Main, FRG
- Age at study initiation: young adult animals
- Weight at study initiation: mean bw of 3.26 kg for males (2) and 3.69 kg for female (1)
- Housing: one animal per cage in cages made of stainless steel with wire mesh walk floors (floor area : 40 cm x 51 cm)
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Kliba 341, 4 MM; from Klingentalmuehle AG, CH-4303 Kaiseraugst, Switzerland (about 130 g per animal per day)
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): about 250 ml tap water per animal per day
- Acclimation period: at least 8 days before the beginning of the study
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
The animals were housed in fully air-conditioned rooms. Central air-conditioning guaranteed a temperature range and a relative humidity. There were no deviations from these ranges which influenced the results of the study.

- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- other: untreated eye served as control
- Amount / concentration applied:
- TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 ml
Single application of test substance into the conjunctival sac of the right eye. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 72 hour(s)
- Observation period (in vivo):
- up to 3 days
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): not rinsed
SCORING SYSTEM: OECD scoring system
Readings after 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours.
