Irritant / corrosive response data:
In all three animals a very slight conjunctival irritation was observed after 1 h. This effect was fully reversible within 24 h.
Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
The test substance was considered to be not irritating to the eye of New Zealand White rabbits in a eye irritation test according to EU Method B.5.
Executive summary:

In a primary eye irritation study according to EU method B.5 (Huntingdon, ECHA RSS, 2017), 0.1 mL (equivalent to 40 mg) of the test substance was instilled into the conjunctival sac of the eye of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. Animals were then observed for 72 hours. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al. (1960).

Very slight conjunctival irritation was observed at one hour after treatment, but had resolved by the end of the first day. No other eye effects were noticeable at the end of the observation period. In this study the test substance is not regarded as eye irritant.

Endpoint:
eye irritation: in vitro / ex vivo

Additional information

In accordance with Article 25(3) of the REACH Regulation the robust study summaries submitted 12 years previously, are used for the purpose of the registration.

Skin irritation

Key study

In a primary dermal irritation study according to EU method B.4 (Huntingdon, ECHA RSS, 2017), young adult New Zealand White rabbits (3 animals) were dermally exposed to 0.5 mg of the unchanged test substance under a semi-occlusive dressing for 24 hours. Animals were then observed for 72 hours. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al. (1960). No signs of skin irritation were observed at any time during the study. In this study, the test substance did not show skin irritating properties.

Supporting study

In a primary dermal irritation study according to EU method B.4 (Pharmaco-LSR, ECHA RSS, 2017), young adult New Zealand White rabbits were dermally exposed to 0.5 mg of the unchanged test substance under a semi occlusive dressing for 4 hours. Animals were then observed for 72 hours. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al. (1960). No signs of skin irritation were observed at any time during the study. In this study, the test substance did not show skin irritating properties

Eye irritation

Key study

In an eye irritation assay according to EU method B.5 in rabbit (New Zealand White) (Huntingdon, ECHA RSS, 2017), the eye irritating properties of the test substance were determined. The test substance was tested on three animals. Iris and cornea opacity score were 0.0 (no signs of irritation). In all three animals a very slight conjunctival irritation was observed after 1 h. This effect was fully reversible within 24 h. Accordingly, the test substance was considered to be not irritating to the eye.

Supporting study

In a primary eye irritation study according to EU method B.5 (Pharmaco-LSR, ECHA RSS, 2017), 100 mg of the test substance was instilled into the conjunctival sac of one eye of three young adult New Zealand White rabbits. Animals were then observed for 8 days. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al. (1960).

Animal No 1 showed slight conjunctivae redness as well as diffuse areas of opacity. Furthermore slight effects on the iris and some swelling of the eye above the normal were observed. In addition to the effects scored, 2 animals showed slight conjunctival discharge during the first 24 hours post administration. There were no effects noticeable by study day 8. Thus, the test substance is not regarded as eye irritant.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008. Based on available data on eye and skin irritation/corrosion, the test item is not classified according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (CLP), as amended for the tenth time in Regulation (EU) No 2017/776.
