Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: US Department of Health, Education and Welfare : Fed Reg 37 (83), 8535, 1972
Principles of method if other than guideline:
In order to evaluate the eye irritation of the test substance, a single dose was applied into the eyes of six rabbits. The exposoure was of 5 minutes and 24 hours. The degree of eye irritation/corrosion was evaluated by scoring lesions of conjunctiva, cornea, and iris, at specific intervals of 24, 48, 72 hours and 7, 14 and 21 days.
GLP compliance:
no

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008
Conclusions:
The test substance was found to be not irritant when applied to intact rabbit eye.
Executive summary:

The test item was investigated for eye irritating property in rabbits using a guideline given by the US Department of Health, Education and Welfare (Fed Reg 37 (83), 8535, 1972). A single dose was applied into the eyes of six rabbits. The exposure was 5 minutes and 24 hours. The degree of eye irritation/corrosion was evaluated by scoring lesions of conjunctiva, cornea, and iris, at specific intervals of 24, 48, 72 hours and 7, 14 and 21 days.

The test item was found not to be irritating to the eyes of rabbits.
