Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
The test chemical 1-[(2,4-dimethylphenyl)diazenyl]-2-naphthol (CAS No: 3118-97-6) was considered to be slightly irritating to the eye of rabbits.
Executive summary:

An ocular irritation study was performed on rabbits for test chemical 1-[(2,4-dimethylphenyl)diazenyl]-2-naphthol (CAS No: 3118-97-6) to assess its eye irritating effects.

 

When pure1-[(2,4-dimethylphenyl)diazenyl]-2-naphthol was administrated into the eye of rabbits, slight ocular effects were observed. Hence the chemical 1-[(2,4-dimethylphenyl)diazenyl]-2-naphthol (CAS No: 3118-97-6) was considered to be irritating to the rabbits’ eye.
