Test system
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- not required
- Amount / concentration applied:
- Test batch used as is:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 mL into the left eye - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Each animal was gently restrained. The dose was instilled into the right eye by pulling the lower eylid away from the eyeball to form a cup into which the formulation of the test material was dropped. The eyelids were gently held together for one second and then released. The left eye remained untreated.
- Observation period (in vivo):
- The eyes were examined at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after treatment.
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3 rabbits
- Details on study design:
- REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: Not stated
SCORING SYSTEM: According to the Official Journal of the European Communities.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Injection of the conjunctival blood vessels and very slight discharge were observed in all the rabbits during the first hour following instillation of the test material. At the 24 hour examination, injection of the conjunctival blood vessels were still apparent in the eye of one rabbit. The eyes of two rabbits were overtly normal at the 24 hour examination and the third at the 48 hour examinations. Instillation of the test material caused a very slight initial pain response in two rabbits and a moderate initial pain response in the third rabbit.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Not classified, Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this test and the criteria of the EEC, neutrase was classified as 'non-irritant' to the eye. The formulation had a dry matter content of 23.4% and a total organic solids content of 16.1%.
- Executive summary:
The potential of the retail concentration of neutrase PPA 4800, hereafter referred to as neutrase, to cause damage to the conjunctivae, iris or cornea was assessed in three New Zealand white rabbits, each subjected to a single ocular instillation of 0.1 mL of the test material formulation. Ocular reactions were assessed 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation.
Injection of the conjunctival blood vessels and very slight discharge were observed in all the rabbits during the first hour following instillation. At the 24 hour examination, injection of the conjunctival blood vessels were still apparent in the eye of one rabbit. The eyes of the rabbits were overtly normal at the 24 or 48 hour examinations. Instillation of the test material caused a very slight to moderate initial pain response.
Under the conditions of this test and the criteria of the EEC, neutrase was classified as 'non-irritant' to the eye. The formulation had a dry matter content of 23.4% and a total organic solids content of 16.1%.
