Any other information on results incl. tables

The eye findings were 1 h, then 24, 48 and 72 h and collected 8 d after exposure. Evaluated pathological findings in the cornea (after turbidity degree and area) were, iris and conjunctiva (for redness, swelling and discharge).The degrees of damage after 24, 48 and 72 h on (1) cornea (O - 80), (2) iris (O - 10) and (3) the conjunctiva (O - 20), together O - 110 applied on 3 experimental animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: not classified under Regulation 1272/2008
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance was tested for eye irritation following OECD 405. Under the experimental conditions it did not show any irritation potential to the eye.
Executive summary:

The substance was tested following OECD 405 for eye irritation. Three New Zeland rabbits were injected with the sample in water and checked regularly. None of the animals showed a score (chemosis, redness and discharge of the conjunctiva, iris and corneal opacity) higher than 1 and the effects were fully reversible within the period of observation.
