- TEST SITE:
Approximately 24 hours before treatnent, the dorsal fur was shaved with electric clippers, exposing an area of approximately 150 square centimeters (10x15 cm2). Prior to test substance administration, the animals were physically examined and the shaved area of skin to be treated wasnormal. On test day 1, 0.5 gram of the test substance was applied to the intact skin of the shaved area on one flank, using a Scotchpak-non-woven patch (2x3 cm, 3M, St.Paul, U.S.A.) mounted on Micropore tape (3M, St. Paul, U.S.A.). The contralateral flank was similarly prepared (but without test substance) to act as a procedural control. The dressing was wrapped around the abdomen and secured with an elastic bandage (Coban, 3M, St. Paul, U.S.A.).
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE:
Four hours after the application of the test substance, the dressing was removed and the remaining test substance removed using a tissue moistened with tap-water and subsequently a dry tissue.

- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- IRRITATION:
Instillation of the test substance into one eye of each of the three male albino rabbits affected the iris in one animal and conjunctivae in all three
animals. The iridic irritation had resolved within 24 hours after instillation in one animal. The irritation of the conjunctivae had resolved within 14 days
in all animals, although lacrimation was still observed in one animal at the final observation.
Treatment of the eyes with 2% fluorescein, 24 and/or 72 hours after test substance instillation revealed no corneal epithelial damage in any of the
animals.
CORROSION:
There was no evidence of ocular corrosion.
REVERSIBILITY OF ANY OBSERVED EFFECTS:
Changes fully reversible within 7 days - Other effects:
- No toxic symptoms were observed in the animals during the test period and no mortality occurred.
Brown staining of the outside of the eyelids and the fur on the head and paws of the animals, caused by the test substance, was observed during the study - Interpretation of results:
- other: Category 2
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- At the time of testing the test substance was considered mildly irritating to the rabbit eye (Kay and Calandra interpretation of the calculated maximum Draize score: 11). However according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures the test substance is classifed as an eye irritant (Category 2) as a positive response was noted in 2 of the 3 tested animals (conjunctival redness ≥2).
- Executive summary:
In a GLP compliant, guideline 'Acute Toxicity: Eye Irritation/Corrosion' test a positive response was noted in 2 of the 3 tested animals (conjunctival redness ≥2). Therefore the test substance is classified as an eye irritant (Category 2) according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures. It is reasonable to assume that the Signal Word “Warning” and the Hazard Statement “H319: Causes serious eye irritation” are therefore required

Additional information
A skin irritation study on the test substance to OECD protocol and to acceptable quality standards resulted in a primary irritation index of 4.5 (moderatley irritating) when appllied to the intact rabbit skin. Therefore the test substance is classified as an skin irritant (Category 2) according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures. It is reasonable to assume that the Signal Word “Warning” and the Hazard Statement “H315: Causes skin irritation” are therefore required.
In a eye irritation test on the test substance to OECD protocol and to acceptable quality standards a positive response was noted in 2 of the 3 tested animals (conjunctival redness ≥2). Therefore the test substance is classified as an eye irritant (Category 2) according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, relating to the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures. It is reasonable to assume that the Signal Word “Warning” and the Hazard Statement “H319: Causes serious eye irritation” are therefore required
Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion
