Description of key information

A single semi-occlusive application of O-Methylisourea sulfphate (technical grade) to intact rabbit skin für four hours elictied no dermal irritation.

Instillation of O-Methylisourea sulphate (technical grade) into the rabbit eye elicted transient slight to well-definde conjunctival reactions only.

No corneal damage or iridial inflammation was seen throughout the observation period.

A diffuse crimson-red colouration of the conjunctivae was observed one hour after instillation only in two animals.

Transient mild conjunctival reactions only were observed in the third animal

Conjunctival reactions had resolved in all three animals twenty-four or forty-eight hours following instillation.

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Instillation of O-Methylisourea sulphate (technical grade) into the rabbit eye elicted transient slight to well-definde conjunctival reactions only.
