Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: not classified, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
- Conclusions:
- Not classified, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the possible irritation potential when single doses of test item are placed in the conjunctival sac of rabbit eyes. The experiment was conducted in accordance with the method and procedures described into the OECD guideline 404.
Under the conditions of the experiment the substance was found to cause a primary irritation score of 1.2 when applied to the rabbit eye mucosa.
In the area of application an orange discoloration of the conjunctivae was observed, which could be related to effects of the test article.
No corrosion was observed at each of the measuring intervals.
Conclusion
The mean values from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours were lower than 1 for corneal opacity, lower than 1 for iritis, lower than 2 for both conjunctival redness and oedema, in all of the three tested animals.
Therefore, the substance does not meet the criteria to be classified as eye irritating, according to the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
