Irritant / corrosive response data:
1h after application of the test substance was in all rabbit slight to moderate swelling of the conjunctiva and slight to strong secretion of the treated eyes observed.
24h to 48h after application all the rabbits conjunctiva were stained by the test substance. 7 d after application all rabbit were without effects

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Not classified
Conclusions:
The substance was tested for eye irritation. Under the experimental conditions the substance does not show eye irritation potential.
Executive summary:

The substance was tesetd for eye irritation. Albino rabbtis were instilled in one eye with the substance while the un treated eye served as control. Observation period was set at 24, 48 and 72h and again at 7 days. Under the experimental conditions the substance does not show any eye irritation potential.
