Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions chosen and considering the described findings the test item does not give indication of an irritant property to the eye.
Executive summary:

The potential of test item to cause damage to the conjunctiva, iris or cornea was assessed in 3 white vienna rabbits in compliance with OECD405, subjected to a single ocular application of about 20 mg of the test substance on day 0.

The average score (24 to 72 hours) for irritation was calculated to be 0 .0 for corneal opacity, iris, conjunctivae redness and for chemosis .

The findings were reversible in all animals within 24 hours after application, thus the study was terminated after 72 hours.

Under the test conditions chosen and considering the described findings the test item does not give indication of an irritant property to the eye.
