Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
These results indicate that the test item, Trimethylolpropane Tripelargonate, has no relevant irritating effect on the eye of the rabbit.
Executive summary:

The acute eye irritation of Trimethylolpropane Tripelargonate was investigated in rabbits. A 0.1 mL aliquot of the test item was introduced into the right eye of a total of 3 animals. The resulting reaction to treatment was assessed approximately 1, 24, 48, and 72 hours after dosing. No significant irritation at either the conjunctivae, iris or cornea was recorded in any treated animal during the study. There were no signs of pain/distress after dosing. Changes in body weight were not remarkable. There was no indication of a systemic effect related to treatment. These results indicate that the test item, Trimethylolpropane Tripelargonate, has no relevant effect on the eye of the rabbit.
