Test system

Controls:
other: untreated eye
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount applied: 0.1 mL (24 mg) test substance/animal
Duration of treatment / exposure:
> 24 h
Observation period (in vivo):
3 days
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3 (female rabbits)
Details on study design:
TREATMENT
- On test day 1, 24 mg of the test item was placed into the conjunctival sac of the left eye of each animal, after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The lids were then held together for about one second to prevent loss of the test item. The right eye remained untreated and served as a control.

REMOVAL OF TEST ITEM
- Washing: no, eyes were not rinsed

SCORING SYSTEM:
- The eyes of each animal were examined 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after administration. The irritant/corrosive potency of the test item was classified according to the numerical scoring system given in OECD TG 405.

TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: slit-lamp

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Executive summary:

In a primary eye irritation study, 24 mg (0.1 mL) of the test item (as described in section 1.2) was instilled into the conjunctival sac of the left eye of three New Zealand White rabbits. Eyes were not rinsed after application. Animals were then observed for 3 days and the irritation was scored. Minimal conjunctival redness (score 1), minimal conjunctival swelling (score 1), and minimal iris reaction (score 1) was observed in some test animals at the one-hour reading, fully reversible within 24 hours (iris reaction, conjunctival swelling) and 48 hours (conjunctival redness). No further signs of eye irritation were noted throughout the test. In this study, the test item is not an eye irritant.
