Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
not required
Amount / concentration applied:
TEST MATERIAL
- Amount(s) applied (volume or weight with unit): 0.1 mL
- Concentration (if solution): Undiluted
Duration of treatment / exposure:
No washing was done.
Observation period (in vivo):
1, 24, 48 and 72 h after the treatment
Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
3 females
Details on study design:
As it was anticipated that the test article could cause marked changes in the eye, the study was initiated with 1 rabbit. Since no marked eye irritation was seen in this animal another 2 rabbits were included in the study.

F reading after instillation of Fluorescein SE Thilo

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, test item SAT 950 744 is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the criteria of Annex VI to the Regulation (EC) N°1272-2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study conducted according to the OECD Guideline 405 and in compliance with GLP, 3 healthy female Mol:Russian rabbits were exposed to 0.1 mL of test item SAT 950 744 in their left eye, while the right eye remained untreated and served as control. The eyelids were then gently held together for one second before releasing. The eyes were examined unwashed and the changes were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h after instillation and graded according to the OECD guideline 405. After the first 24 h reading Fluorescein was instilled. After rinsing with 20 mL 0.9 % sodium chloride solution the eyes were examined again using UV-light to detect possible corneal damage.

One hour after application erythema, oedema and discharge was observed in all animals. No reactions of the eyes were observed in any of animals 24 h after application. Mean individual scores at 24, 48 and 72 h after exposure for the 3 animals were 0, 0, 0 for cornea score; 0, 0, 0 for iris score; 0, 0, 0 for conjunctivae score and 0, 0, 0 for chemosis score.

Under the test conditions, test item SAT 950 744 is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the criteria of Annex VI to the Regulation (EC) N°1272-2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
