Therefore, the substance was concluded to be not irritating to the eyes.

Additional information
Skin irritation:
Key study
A study according to OECD Guideline 404 was conducted to assess the irritating properties of the test substance when applied to rabbits’ skin. 0.5 mL of the undiluted test item was applied to clipped skin sites under semi-occlusive conditions on 3 animals. The first animal was exposed for 3 min, 1 hour and 4 hours and based on the skin findings the remaining two animals were exposed for 4 hours afterwards. After patch removal, the skin sites were examined after 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours. No signs of erythema/eschar or oedema formation were observed. Based on these results, the test material was considered to be non-irritating to skin.
Supporting study
The test material at a concentration of 10 % in olive oil was applied to skin sites on the backs and upper arms of 60 human volunteers under occlusion. The patches were removed after 24 hours and skin reactions were observed 24, 48 and 72 hours thereafter. As a result, no skin reactions were recorded and thus it was concluded that the test substance was not irritating at a concentration of 10 %. For details, please refer to IUCLID6, section 7.10.5.
Conclusion
The study conducted in rabbits according to OECD 404 was selected as key study as undiluted test substance was used in a standard animal test according to REACH requirements. The conclusion that the test substance is not irritating on skin was supported by the result of a study with 10 % test substance on human volunteers.
Eye irritation:
Key study
A study was performed to assess the irritancy potential of the test material to the eye of rabbits. The study was performed according to OECD Guideline 405 and according to GLP. Three rabbits were treated with a single application of 0.1 mL test substance. As a result, conjunctival irritation was observed in all animals, but all eyes appeared normal after 48 hours. Therefore, the substance was concluded to be not irritating to the eyes.
Supporting study
0.1 mL of the test substance was applied as a concentration of 10 % in olive oil in the eyes of 8 rabbits to assess its irritating property. The eyes of half of the animals were rinsed after application. As a result, no signs of irritation were observed. Therefore, the test substance at a concentration of 10 % was not irritating to the eyes.
Conclusion
The study conducted in rabbits according to OECD 405 was selected as key study as undiluted test substance was used in a standard animal test according to REACH requirements. The conclusion that the test substance is not irritating in eyes was supported by the result of a study with 10 % test substance in rabbits.
