Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
A dose of 100 µl Phosphono succinic acid tetramethylester was administered into one eye of two young adult New Zealand white rabbits (3–4 kg) for an exposure period of 24 hours. Then the treated eyes were rinsed with sterile water. The contralateral eye remained untreated and served as a control. The eyes were examined and the grade of ocular reaction was recorded until day 7 post administration according to Draize.
GLP compliance:
no
