Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The irritant potential of the product Osilift towards rabbit cornea fibroblasts was determined at the concentrations of 5 to 50%. The IC50 of Osilift is higher than 50%. The per cent mortality observed at the dilution of 50% is to 48%. The cytotoxicity of Osilift is thus slight.
