Irritant / corrosive response data:
Comments:This test was realized by a laboratory which is not certified by BPL.
The observation of ocular lesions was not pursued beyond 72 hours after the product application. At
this time, it remained an eryhtema of conjonctiva level 1 in one rabbit.
Given the weak irritation, there is no need to think that this substance could cause an irreversible effect.
It is not appeared a justification to make this test again.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The contact of the product to test with the Albino rabbit's ocular mucous membrane had caused only
one significant and usual reaction of conjonctiva without no particular consequence. Considering the
small rate of Index of Ocular Maximum Irritation (7.0), the expert concludes that, according to official
numerical classification, the product is completely lacking in any irritant effect for the ocular mucous
membrane
