Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The eye irritation study was read-across from the structurally analogous substance C12-16. The study, conducted according to OECD TG 405, 1987 and in compliance with GLP, reports the substance, Alcohols, C12-16, to be not irritating to the eye under the conditions of the study.
