Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: the opposite eye served as control
Amount / concentration applied:
100 µl
Duration of treatment / exposure:
1 second
Observation period (in vivo):
21 days
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3
Details on study design:
100 µl of the test compound was instilled into the conjunctival sac of one eye of each of 3 rabbits after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for about one second . The treated eye was washed out with physiological saline 24 hours after instillation of the test compound. The other eye remained untreated and served as control . Eye irritation was scored according to Draize during the observation period of 21 days

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Eye irritation test was performed according to OECD TG 405 and GLP: 100 µl of the test compound was instilled into the conjunctival sac of one eye of each of 3 rabbits after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then gently held together for about one second . The treated eye was washed out with physiological saline 24 hours after instillation of the test compound. The other eye remained untreated and served as control . Eye irritation was scored according to Draize during the observation period of 21 days. No reactions in conjunctivae, cornea or iris of the eyes were observed in none of the 3 rabbits.(Score 0 ). Therefore, the test compound is evaluated as not irritating to the eyes of rabbits. According to CLP classification criteria (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008) a classification is not justified.
