- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Ocular instillation of the test substance elicited conjunctival responses in all animals. Iridic and corneal responses were not evident during the study. Conjunctival responses consisted of redness of Grade 2 in all animals and discharge of Grade 1 and Grade 2 for one animal each at the 1 hour evaluation. Discharge was not evident after the 1 hour evaluation but redness of Grade 1 was noted for 2 animals at the 24 and 48 hour evaluations. Redness of Grade 1 also was noted for all animals at 72 hour evaluation. Irritation was not evident at the Day 7 evaluation and the study was terminated.
- Other effects:
- All animals survived the study termination and were free of clincial signs during the study.
- Interpretation of results:
- other: Not irritating
- Remarks:
- Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: GHS (EU, 2007)
- Conclusions:
- Based on the study design the test substance, hydrocarbons, C7-C9, isoalkanes, is not irritating.
- Executive summary:
This data is being read across from the source study that tested Hydrocarbons, C7-C9, isoalkanes based on analogue read across.
Based on the study design the test substance, Hydrocarbons, C7-C9, isoalkanes, is not irritating.
