Irritant / corrosive response data:
In all animals the mucosa of the conjuntival sac appeared strongly damaged at the readings 24, 48, and 72 hours (two animals) or only at the readings 48 and 72 hours (one animal) after instillation of the test article. In one animal a slight vascularisation of the lower marginal part of the cornea was observed from day 7 until day 10.
