Rooms were cleaned daily and the cages were cleaned and sanitized as specified in ABC SOP's. Urine and feces fell through the wire mesh floor onto animal caging board. The cage boards were changed at least 2 to 3 times per week.
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): Purina Certified Rodent Chow 5002, ad libitum, except for fasting prior to dosing.
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): Filtered tap water was provided through an automatic watering system and was analyzed periodically, ad libitum.

- Acclimation period: 14 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22 ± 7 °C
- Humidity (%): 30-70 %
- Air changes (per hr): No data available
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (12 hour light/dark, cycle)

- % coverage: No data available
- Type of wrap if used: No data available

REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): No data available
- Time after start of exposure: No data available

SCORING SYSTEM: according to Draize method
The mean Primary Eye Irritation Score with standard deviation and standard error values were calculated at each evaluation interval using the total scores of each treated eye.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria

Conclusions:

No mortalities or abnormal clinical signs were observed. Redness (grade 1 through 3), chemosis (grade 1 and 2), discharge (grades 1 and 2), and iritis (grade 1) were observed. Blistering of the conjunctivae was noted for all animals. All animals were considered to have exhibited a positive response to Solvent Red 1.
Hence, Solvent Red 1 can be considered to be irritating to New Zealand White rabbit eyes.

Executive summary:

An eye irritation study was performed on 6 (3/sex) New Zealand White Albino rabbits to assess the irritation potential of Solvent Red 1.

0.1 g of neat Solvent Red 1 was instilled into the eyes of rabbits and the effects were observed. The treated eye of each animal was examined for ocular irritation and lesions at 24, 48 and 72 hours (+2 hours at each interval). The treated eyes were evaluated on days 7, 14, and 21 if irritation persisted. No mortality and clinical signs of toxicity were observed in treated rabbits. Redness (grades 1 through 3), chemosis (grades I and 2), discharge (grades 1 and 2) and iritis (grade 1) were observed. Blistering of the conjunctivae were observed.Blistering of the conjunctivae was noted for all animals. Two animals also exhibited opacities and positive fluorescein staining. All animals were considered to have exhibited a positive response to Solvent Red 1.

 The mean irritation score after 72 hours was 0.7

Hence, Solvent Red 1 can be considered to be irritating to New Zealand White rabbit eyes.
