Irritant / corrosive response data:
Exposure to the test substance produced conjunctivitis (redness and/or discharge) in 3/3 test eyes at the 1-hour scoring interval. The conjunctival irritation resolved completely in 3/3 test eyes by the 24-hour scoring interval. Hair loss around the test eye was noted in 1/3 test eyes during the study. No corneal opacity, iritis or conjunctivitis was observed in the control eyes.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
not irritating
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: OECD GHS
Conclusions:
Not irritating to eyes
Executive summary:

The potential irritant and/or corrosive effects of AL305B were evaluated in the eyes of New Zealand White rabbits. Each of three rabbits received a 0.1 mL dose of the test substance in the conjunctival sac of the right eye. The left eye remained untreated and served as a control. Test and control eyes were examined for signs of irritation for up to 96 hours following dosing.

Exposure to the test substance produced conjunctivitis in 3/3 test eyets at the 1 -hour scoring interval. The conjunctival irritation resolved completely in 3/3 test eyes by the 24 -hour scoring interval. Based on the results of this study, the mean 24 -hour Draize eye irritation score for Al305B was 0.00/110.
