Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Gaukler
- Weight at study initiation: animal #1 2.99 kg, animal #2 2.82 kg
- Diet: Ssniff

IN-LIFE DATES: From: 1976-03-24 To: 1976-04-01

Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: other eye of test animal treated was with talcum powder
Amount / concentration applied:
about 50 mm3, i.e. ca. 50 mg
Observation period (in vivo):
8 days
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
2
Details on study design:
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing: The test substance was not washed out

SCORING SYSTEM: observed were the parameters redness and chemosis of conjunctivae, and corneal opacity

Grading system for redness and edema: The data reported have to be converted into presently used numerical grading system as given in the following table
"reizlos" (no symptom) Ø, "fraglich" (questionable) (+): considered as equivalent to grade 0 (no irritating effect) according to OECD Draize scheme
"leicht" (slight) +: considered as equivalent to grade 1 (very slight effect) according to OECD Draize scheme
"stark" (marked) ++: considered as equivalent to grade 2 (well-defined effect) effect according to OECD Draize scheme
"sehr stark" (severe) +++: considered as equivalent to grade ≥3 (severe effect) according to OECD Draize scheme

Grading system for iritis: iritis + or ++ equals Draize scheme grade 1 or 2, respectively.

TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: fluorescein

Irritant / corrosive response data:
Test item treatment: Slight conjunctival redness was observed at both test animals after 1 h and after 24 h; effects observed to be fully reversible after 8 d.
Control eye treatment with talcum: Control eye of both animals showed slight conjunctival redness after 1 h and after 24 h such as the eye treated with test item; effects also observed to be fully reversible after 8 d. Both control eyes furthermore showed edema after 1 h, grade 3 for animal #1 and grade 2 for animal #2.
