Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
Installation of 0.1 ml of the test material into the eyes of six rabbits produced a primary irritation index of 0.1. Hence, the substance was not irritant for the rabbit's eye. Thus, not sufficient for classification.
