Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
According to the EEC classification of the results obtained 24 to 72 hours after instillation of the substance, it can be classified as non-irritant to albino rabbit's eye. Changes fully reversible within 14 days.
Executive summary:

Under the experimental conditions employed the test material induced reactions of the cornea, iris and conjunctiva when instilled into the conjunctival sac of albino rabbits' eyes.

The following mean scores (24 - 72h) were calculated:

Animal No   658  110  098
 Conjunctiva/redness  1
 Conjunctiva /chemosis  0.33 0.33 
 Cornea 0.33  0.67 0.33 
 Iris 0 0.33   0
