Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Based on the entire data for the test item no classification for serious eye damage/eye irritation according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) is required.
Executive summary:

For determination of corneal damage opacity as well as tissue permeability was measured after a 10 minutes exposure time and a 2 hours post exposure incubation period. Based on these data, in comparison to the negative control, the In Vitro Irritancy Score (IVIS) value was calculated to be 2.2 which is below the IVIS cut-off threshold of 55 and thus identifying the test item as not inducing serious eye damage. The results of the positive (1 % sodium hydroxide) and negative (isotonic saline) controls confirmed the validity of the test system.
