Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, test material is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the annex I of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272 /2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study conducted according to OECD 405 guideline and in compliance with GLP, 3 New Zealand White female rabbits were exposed to 0.1 mL of test item in one eye while the contralateral eye remained untreated and served as control. The eyes were examined and the changes were observed at 1, 24, 48 and 72 h and day 4 following treatment and graded according to the Draize method. Initially, a single animal was treated. After consideration of the ocular responses produced in the first treated animal, two additional animals were treated.


The ocular reactions observed during the study have been slight to moderate and totally reversible in the three animals. A moderate redness, noted 1 hour after the test item instillation and totally reversible between day 2 and day 4. A slight to moderate chemosis, noted 1 hour after the test item instillation and totally reversible between day 1 and day 2.


 


 


Mean individual scores at 24, 48 and 72 h after exposure for the 3 animals were 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 for cornea score; 0.0, 0.0, 0.0 for iris score; 1.0, 0.3, 1.0 for conjunctivae score and 0.3, 0.0, 0.3 for chemosis score.


 


Under the test conditions, test material is not classified as irritating to eyes according to the annex I of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272 /2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.


This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for eye irritation endpoint.
