Test animals / tissue source

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
other: Crl:KBL(NZW)BR
Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
according to guideline
sex of the test animals: female

Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: The other eye, which remained untreated, served as control.
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 ml
- Concentration (if solution): 100%
Duration of treatment / exposure:
The lids were gently held together for about one second in order to prevent loss of the test compound. The eye was rinsed approximately 24 hours following instillation.
Observation period (in vivo):
1, 24, 48, 72 hours post application. If eye irritations were observed, animals were monitored usually on day 7, 14 and 21 after application until the changes had completely subsided.
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3
Details on study design:
REMOVAL OF TEST SUBSTANCE
- Washing (if done): 24 hours after instillation the eye was rinsed

SCORING SYSTEM: Draize, any serious lesions or toxic effects other than ocular lesions were also recorded and fully described.

EXPOSURE PROCEDURE:
For reasons of animal welfare a stepwise approach was done. Into the conjunctival sac of one animal t0.1 ml test substance was placed. As one hour after treatment a severe irritation was not observed, two further rabbits were treated as before.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
As a result of 2 of the 3 animals tested having a conjunctival redness score of 2, reversible within 7 days, this material should be classified for eye irritation as a category 2.
Executive summary:

An acute eye irritation/corrosion test (OECD 405) was performed with NLP # 10 (ortho-Toluene diamine, propoxylated).


The substance should be classified for eye irritation according to EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
