Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not classified
Remarks:
Migrated information under Regulation 1272/2008 Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The substance was tested for eye irritation following EU MEthod B5. Under the experimental conditions the substance does not show any eye irritation potential.
Executive summary:

The substance was tested for eye irritation following EU MEthod B5. Three NZW Rabbits were exposed to the test substance (one treated eye, the other control). Scores for conjunctivae, cornea, chemosis and iris were recorded. Under the experimental conditions the substance does not show any eye irritation potential.
