Test animals / tissue source

Species:

rabbit

Strain:

New Zealand White

Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:

Age : 10 to 12 weeks
Sex : Female
Body weight range : 1.80kg ±200g
No. of animals : Three
Acclimatization : The rabbit was acclimatized to standard laboratory condition for 24 hours in experimental room before study.
Environmental conditions : Air conditioned room with 10-15 air changes per hour, temperature between 22-250C, relative humidity 40-60% and illumination cycle set to 12 hours artificial fluorescent light and 12 hours dark.

Test system

Vehicle:

water

Amount / concentration applied:

A dose of 0.1gm of test substance was applied into the one eye of the rabbits. The other eye, which remains untreated, serves as a control

Duration of treatment / exposure:

21 days

Observation period (in vivo):

The eyes were examined at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after test substance application. The grades of ocular reaction (conjunctiva, cornea and iris) were recorded at each observation. To determine the reversibility of the effect the animal was observed normally for 21 days. Any other lesions in the eye viz pannus, staining were observed and scored accordingly. Examination of reactions was facilitated by use of biomicroscope and hand slit lamp. After recording the observations at 24 hours, the eyes were further examined with the aid of fluorescein. Individual animal weight before and during the study was also observed

Number of animals or in vitro replicates:

No. of animals : Three

Details on study design:

Two healthy rabbits of body weight 1.80 kg ±200 gm was selected for study after acclimatization. Both eyes of rabbits were examined for any abnormal discharge such as eye irritation, ocular defects or pre-existing corneal injury from eye 24 hours prior to application of test compound.
Test compound Diiodohydroxyquinoline was applied in the amount of 0.1 g in the conjunctival sac of rabbit after gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball. The other eye which remain untreated, served as a control. The acute irritation to eye conjunctiva, cornea and iris was evaluated at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours after the treatment. The grades of ocular reaction (conjunctiva, cornea and iris) were recorded at each observation. To determine the reversibility of the effect the animals were observed normally for 21 days. Any other lesions in the eye viz pannus, staining were observed and scored accordingly. Examination of reactions was facilitated by use of biomicroscope and hand slit lamp.

Irritant / corrosive response data:

The test compound Diiodohydroxyquinoline applied to the eye of New Zealand white rabbit at the dose level of 0.1 gm did not produce any clinical signs of eye irritation. Furthermore, any lesions such as pannus, staining were not recorded throughout the observation period

Other effects:

The test compound Diiodohydroxyquinoline applied in conjunctival sac of rabbits did not show any observable clinical signs such as cage side activity and pain or stress etc. throughout the observation period of 21 days.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

not irritating

Remarks:

Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU

Conclusions:

MMAS(Modified Maximum Average Draizes Test Score) for Diiodohydroxyquinoline was found to be 0. From this it can be concluded that the test compound Diiodohydroxyquinoline is non-irritating when applied in the amount of 0.1 g in the conjunctival sac of the rabbits under test condition

Executive summary:

MMAS(Modified Maximum Average Draizes Test Score) for Diiodohydroxyquinoline was found to be 0. From this it can be concluded that the test compound Diiodohydroxyquinoline is non-irritating when applied in the amount of 0.1 g in the conjunctival sac of the rabbits under test condition
