Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: untreated eye of the same animal
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount applied: 100 µL






Duration of treatment / exposure:
24h
Observation period (in vivo):
1h, 24h, 48h, 72 h, 7 days
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

Details on study design:
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): NaCl solution
- Time after start of exposure: 24 h
- Procedure:Test material was placed in the conjunctival sac of one eye each animal. The lids are then gently held together for about one second in order to prevent loss of the material.

SCORING SYSTEM: Draize Evaluation for eye irritation (according to OECD guideline 405)

TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: optical device, eyes were further examined with the aid of fluorescein
