Test system

Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Controls:
other: the untreated eye of each rabbit served as a control
Amount / concentration applied:

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye)
Conclusions:
The substance is defined as irritant to the eyes as 4 to 6 rabbits were observed to have positive scores. Based on these results and the fact that the substance is corrosive to the skin, the substance is classified as causing serious eye damage to eyes (category 1) according to CLP Regulation.
