Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the test material is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the criteria of the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study performed according to the OECD guideline No. 405, and in compliance with GLP, 0.1 g of undiluted Fixambrene was instilled into the left eye of 3 New Zealand White Rabbit. The eyes were not rinsed after the instillation of the test item.The left eye of each rabbit was instilled with 0.1 mL Fixambrene diluted at 30 % in Neantine. Animals were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after dosing under a standard light source. The reactions in the conjunctiva (redness, chemosis and discharge), the iris and the cornea (opacity and area involved) were scored according to the Draize scale. 

 

The calculated mean score for each individual lesion for each animal treated with undiluted Fixambrene within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 h) were as follows: 0.0/0.0/0.67 for chemosis; 0.33/0.33/1.67 for redness; 0.0/0.0/0.0 for iris and corneal lesions.

The effects observed were all reversible within 7 days.

 

Under the test conditions, Fixambrene is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the criteria of the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for eye irritation endpoint.
