Irritant / corrosive response data:
IRRITATION
The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation) for each animal for corneal opacity, iris, redness and chemosis of the conjunctivae, separately. The individual mean scores for corneal opacity and iris were 0.00 for all three animals. The individual mean scores for the conjunctivae were 1 .67, 1 .67 and 1.00 for reddening and 1.33,0.67 and 0.00 for chemosis, respectively.
No abnormal findings were observed in the cornea or iris of any animal at any of the measurement intervals.
Slight to moderate reddening of the conjunctivae was noted in all animals from the 1-hour upto the 48-hour reading. Slight reddening was still present in all animals 72 hours after treatment and persisted in two animals up to the 7-day examination.
Moderate swelling (chemosis) of the conjunctivae with partial eversion of lids to marked swelling with half-closed lids was observed in all animals at the 1-hour reading. Moderate swelling with partial eversion of the lids was still visible in two animals 24 hours after treatment and slight swelling of the conjunctivae was present in one animal at the 48- and 72-hour examination.
The reddening of the sclerae was not assessable in two animals at the 1-hour reading due to swelling of the conjunctivae while moderate reddening was visible in the third animal. Slight to moderate reddening of the sclerae was present in all animals at the 24-hour examination and moderate reddening was observed in two animals 48 hours after treatment. Slight reddening was still evident in two animals at the 72-hour reading.
Discharge with moistening of the lids and hairs just adjacent to the lids was noted in all animals at the 1-hour examination. Slight discharge was still present in two animals 24 hours after treatment.
No abnormal findings were observed in the treated eye of any animal 10 days after treatment, the end of the observation per iod for all animals.

CORROSION
No corrosion of the cornea was observed at any of the reading times.
Other effects:
NECROPSY : No necropsy was performed on the animals sacrificed at termination of observation.
All rabbits were sacrificed by an intravenous injection of Vetanarcol into the ear vein at a dose of at least 1 mL/kg body weight (equivalent to 162 mg sodium pentobarbitone/kg body weight) and discarded.

VIABILlTY/MORTALITY AND CLINICAL SIGNS
No clinical signs of systemic toxicity were observed in the animals during the study and no mortality occurred.

COLORATION
No staining of the treated eyes produced by the test item was observed.

BODY WEIGHTS
The body weights of all rabbits were considered to be within the normal range of variability.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not irritating
Remarks:
based on CLP criteria
Conclusions:
Based on these results and according to the CLP classification criteria: the test item C 010 (3-[(4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)azo]-N,N,N-trimethylanilinium chloride) is considered to be "not irritating" to the rabbit eye.

Executive summary:

The primary eye irritation potential of C 010 (3-[(4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)azo]-N,N,N-trimethylanilinium chloride) was investigated according to OECD test guideline no. 405. The test item was applied by instillation of 0.1 g into the left eye of each of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. The treated and untreated eyes were rinsed with lukewarm tap water 24 hours after instillation. Scoring of irritation effects was performed approximately 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, as well as 7 and 10 days after test item instillation.

The mean score was calculated across 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hours after instillation) for each animal for corneal opacity, iris, redness and chemosis of the conjunctivae, separately. The individual mean scores for corneal opacity and iris were 0.00 for all three animals. The individual mean scores for the conjunctivae were 1.67, 1.67 and 1.00 for reddening and 1.33, 0.67 and 0.00 for chemosis, respectively.

The instillation of C 010 (3-[(4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)azo]-N,N,N-trimethyl anilinium chloride) into the eye resulted in mild to moderate, early-onset and transient ocular changes, such as reddening of the conjunctivae and sclerae, discharge and chemosis. These effects were reversible and were no longer evident 10 days after treatment, the end of the observation period for all animals. No abnormal findings were observed in the cornea or iris of any animal at any of the examinations. No corrosion was observed at any of the measuring intervals. No staining of the treated eyes by the test item was observed and no clinical signs were observed.

Thus, the test item did not induce significant or irreversible damage to the rabbit eye.

Based on these results and according to the CLP classification criteria: the test item C 010 (3-[(4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-phenyl-1H- pyrazol-4-yl)azo] -N,N,N-trimethylanilinium chloride) is considered to be "not irritating" to the rabbit eye.
