Test animals / tissue source
- Species:
- rabbit
- Strain:
- New Zealand White
- Details on test animals or tissues and environmental conditions:
- The animals were acquired from Myrtle’s Rabbitry; Thompsons Station, Wills Point, TX and weighted 2.525-3.400 kg upon reciept. Each animal was housed in a suspended, wire bottom, stainless steel cage. The animal room maintained a 12-hour light/dark cycle, 10-12 air changes/hour
a temperature range of 18-25°C and relative humidity of 24-92%. The animals were offered PMI Feeds, Inc.TM Lab Rabbit Diet #532 1, ~8 oz. daily and Municipal water supply analyzed by TCEQ Water Utilities Division available ad libitum from automatic water system.
Test system
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Controls:
- no
- Amount / concentration applied:
- 0.1 mL
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- 24 hr
- Observation period (in vivo):
- 17 days, one animal only.
- Number of animals or in vitro replicates:
- 3
- Details on study design:
- On Day 0, a dose of 0.1 mL of the undiluted test substance was placed into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of each animal by gently pulling the lower lid away from the eyeball to form a cup into which the test substance was dropped. The lids were gently held together for one second to prevent loss of material. The untreated left eyes served as comparative controls.
The grades of ocular reaction were recorded at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours, at 4 and 7 days (all animals), as well as 10, 14 and 17 days (initial animal only) after treatment. The corneas of all treated eyes were examined immediately after the 24-hour observation with a fluorescein sodium ophthalmic solution. Any of the corneas that exhibited fluorescein staining at the 24-hour observation were re-examined with the fluorescein sodium ophthalmic solution at each consecutive observation until fluorescein staining of the cornea no longer occurred. All treated eyes were washed with room temperature DI water for one minute immediately after recording the 24-hour observation.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- moderately irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: expert judgment
- Conclusions:
- The test substance is a moderate eye irritant and requires Classification and Labeling in the EU.
- Executive summary:
The test substance, 1,2,3,6-Tetrahydrophthalic anhydride, oligomeric reaction products with 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol, was evaluated for eye irritation potential in rabbits in an O.E.C.D. test guideline 405 study. Based upon the study results the test substance is judged to be a moderate eye irritant and requires Classification and Labeling in the EU.
