Irritant / corrosive response data:
No corneal, or iridal effects were seen in this study. Conjunctival redness was seen in all 3 treated eyes 1 hour after instillation (Grade 2), and in 2 of 3 treated eyes at 24 hours (Grade 1). Grade 1 chemosis was seen in all 3 treated eyes 1 hours after instillation. All eyes were normal at 48 hours post-treatment. See attached data table.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Remarks:
Not classified by CLP criteria
Conclusions:
In a guideline (OECD 405) in vivo eye irritation study, Irgastab CH 302 was not irritating to the rabbit eye. No corneal, or iridal effects were seen in this study. Conjunctival redness was seen in all 3 treated eyes 1 hour after instillation (Grade 2), and in 2 of 3 treated eyes at 24 hours (Grade 1). Grade 1 chemosis was seen in all 3 treated eyes 1 hours after instillation. All eyes were normal at 48 hours post-treatment.
