Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Not eye irritant
Executive summary:

The primary irritation effect was assested following the "Appraisal of the Safety of Chemicals in Foods, Drugs and Cosmetics" (1959) of the US Association of Food and Drug Officials (AFDO).

The result does not show irritation on rabbit eye following the indicated guideline and the tested item is to be considered as non-irritant to eye based on CLP criteria, table 3.2.2.7.1.
