Data available for the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the toxic nature of the test chemical. The studies are as mentioned below:
Primary skin irritation study of the two test chemicals was conducted on the intact or abraded skin of six rabbits to observe its irritation efficacy under occlusive condition. Briefly, the backs of six rabbits were clipped free of hair. Each test material was placed on two one-inch square sites on the same animal. One site was intact and the other site was abraded. Each test site was covered with cotton gauze pads and secured with tape in contact with the skin for 24 h. The entire trunk of the animal was wrapped with rubberized cloth or other occlusive impervious material to retard evaporation of the test substance. After the 24-h exposure period, the wrappings were removed. The sites were scored after approximately 1 h for erythema and edema, using a standard Draize scoring system on a scale of 0–4 for each parameter (maximum of 8.0 Primary Irritation Index). Scoring was repeated at 24, 48 and 72 h post-exposure or until all irritation resolved. Mild skin irritation was observed on treated area after 4 hours exposure period. The test chemicals was considered to be irritating to the skin of rabbits after 4 hours exposure period and hence it is likely to classify as a skin irritant.
Based on the data available and applying the weight of evidence approach, the test chemical was considered to be irritating to the skin of rabbits after 4 hours exposure period.

SCORING SYSTEM: Scores were based on the degree or extent of opacity on the cornea, the redness on the iris and the chemosis and discharge on the conjunctiva, using a standard scale at intervals of 1, 24, 48 and 72 h or until all irritation resolves. More emphasis was placed on the opacity of the cornea, which was given a maximum score of 80. Conjunctival changes had a maximum score of 20 and iritis had maximum score of 10. The total maximum score was 110.
TOOL USED TO ASSESS SCORE: No detailed data is available - Irritation parameter:
- overall irritation score
- Basis:
- mean
- Time point:
- 24 h
- Max. score:
- 110
- Reversibility:
- not specified
- Remarks on result:
- positive indication of irritation
- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Slight eye irritation was observed in treated rabbits.
- Other effects:
- No data
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 2 (irritating to eyes) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- The test material Ammonium phosphinate (CAS No: 7803-65-8) was considered to be irritating to the eyes six of rabbits.
- Executive summary:
Data available for the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the ocular irritation potential of the test chemical Ammonium phosphinate (CAS No: 7803-65-8). The studies are as mentioned below:
Draize eye irritation test was carried out for test chemical to assess the degree of eye irritation caused by the chemical. In this study, 100 mg test material was instilled into the conjunctival sac of one eye each of six rabbits. The other eye served as a control. The eyelid was held shut for a few seconds and released. Washing, when indicated, occurred within 20–30 s of exposure and consisted of flooding the eye with large amounts of water for 1 min. Scores were based on the degree or extent of opacity on the cornea, the redness on the iris and the chemosis and discharge on the conjunctiva, using a standard scale at intervals of 1, 24, 48 and 72 h or until all irritation resolves. More emphasis was placed on the opacity of the cornea, which was given a maximum score of 80. Conjunctival changes had a maximum score of 20 and iritis had maximum score of 10. The total maximum score was 110. The chemical induced slight eye irritation in treated rabbits after 24 hours. Hence the test chemical was considered to be slightly irritating to the eyes of six rabbits and hence it is likely to classify as an eye irritant.
Based on the data available and applying the weight of evidence approach, it can be concluded that the test chemical is able to cause eye irritation and considered as irritating. Comparing the above annotations with the criteria of CLP regulation, it can be classified under the category “Category 2 (Irritant)”.
