Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
other: Classified as Category 2 according to EU criteria.
Conclusions:
Under the conditions of the test, the test material was shown to be irritating to the eyes. In accordance with EU criteria the test material is classified as Category 2.
Executive summary:

The eye irritancy potential of the test material was assessed in a GLP compliant in vivo study that was based upon the procedure outlined in the guidelines of the United States EPA, Paragraph 163.81-4 “Primary eye irritation study”, Federal Register, Vol. 43 No. 163, August 22, 1978.

Nine New Zealand White rabbits were exposed to the test material; the treated eye of three animals was rinsed with saline 30 seconds after exposure. The reactions to the test material were evaluated in accordance with the Draize scale (1977) after 24, 48 and 72 hours followed by further observations after 4 and 7 days. The test material was determined to cause moderate irritation.

 

Under the conditions of this study, the test material was shown to cause irritation to the eye which would require classification under regulation directive 1272/2008. The test material requires classification as "Category 2, H319: Causes serious eye irritation" with signal word "Warning".
