Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified under Regulation 1272/2008
Conclusions:
The substance was tsetd for eye irritation following Fed. Reg. 38, No. 187, § 1500.42 (Draize test). Under the experimental conditions the substance is not eye irritant/corrosive.
Executive summary:

Following the experimental design according to Federal Register 38, No. 187 § 1500.42, 1973, 0.1 mL of the test substance was instilled in the conjunctival sac of six Vienna White rabbits. The eyes were not washed after 24 hours of exposure. Animals were observed for 8 days. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al..

The application to the intact eye resulted in marked redness in all animals after 24 hours. The effect was not fully reversible, after 8 days three of 6 animals showed a slightly redness (grade 1) of the conjunctivae. As the eyes were not washed out and the animals were only observed for 8 days instead of 21 days as recommended in the current OECD 405 guideline, it is reasonable to assume that effects would be less pronounced and fully reversible if the eyes would have been washed out and/or the observation period would have been extended to 21 days. Slight to marked chemosis was observed in all animals, but was fully reversible within 72 hours. After application, all animals showed a slight corneal opacity, which was completely resolved by the end of the study. The iris of two animals was affected by the test item after 24 hours, but this effect was fully reversible within 48 hours.

Based on these observations, the test article is not corrosive nor irritant to the eye of rabbits based on Regulation 1272/2008.
