- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- - The animals individual mean score (considering reading at 24,48 and 72 hours after the treatment) for discharge was: 0.33, 0.00 and 2.67. However, conjunctival discharge does not represent a relevant endpoint with respect to classification for acute eye irritation.
- During the study the control eyes of the animals were symptom-free. - Other effects:
- General state and the behaviour of the animals were normal throughout the study period. There were no effects on body weight attributable to the treatment with the test item during the contact and observation period.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- not irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- The test item, caused slight to moderate conjunctival irritant effects, fully reversible within 1 week and not relevant for C&L. There were no test item-related effects on cornea and iris.
- Executive summary:
In an acute eye irritation study (Toxicoop Zrt., 2012, OECD 405, GLP compliance) three rabbits were exposed with the test item Sodium dimethyl 5-sulphonatoisophthalate (SIM-Ester). The test item was placed into the conjunctival sac of the left eye of each animal. The untreated right eye served as control. A weight of 0.1 g of the ground test item was used in pure state, as a single dose. The eyes of the test animals were not washed out after the application of test item. The eyes were examined at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hour(s) and then at 1 week after the application. One hour after the treatment, slight conjunctival redness and chemosis, as well as slight to moderate discharge were observed. 24 hours after the treatment, slight redness, slight to moderate chemosis, as well as slight and severe discharge were detected in two animals. 1 week after treatment the study was terminated, as all animals were free of symptoms of irritation. There were no test item-related effects on cornea and iris. In conclusion the test item SIM-Ester did not show any irritating effects relevant for C&L.
