- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- The eyes of animals with rinsed eyes were only exposed for 30s. The following scores were obtained (where possible, based on observations at 24, 48 and 72 hours):
Cornea: ca. 2.6 (one animal's eye too swollen at t=48 hours to be assessed)
Iris: ca. 1.2 (one animal's eye too swollen to be assessed)
Conjunctivae- redness: ca. 2.8
Chemosis: ca. 4
Conjunctivae- discharge: ca. 2.3
After 21 days, effects were not reversed. - Other effects:
- In the group of animals without rinsing of the eyes slight hairloss around the treated eye was observed in 2 males and 2 females. One male showed head tilt on days 0-2.
The three females whose eyes were rinsed also showed hairloss around the treated eye (slight to moderate). Two females showed head tilt on days 0-2.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye)
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
- Conclusions:
- An eye irritation study according to current OECD/EC guidelines was conducted in compliance with GLP principles. Based on the results of this study, the substance has to be classified category 1 causing "irreversible effects on the eye/ serious damage to eyes" according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
- Executive summary:
An eye irritation study according to current OECD/EC guidelines was conducted in compliance with GLP principles. In this study, 6 rabbits (3 males and 3 females) showed severe effects on the eyes the first 72 hours after treatment, which did not reverse after one week. In parallel, three females were treated with the substance, which was removed from the eye after 30s by rinsing. The effects to the eyes of these animals were comparable to the eyes of the unrinsed group. The effects did not reverse within 21 days after treatment. Additionally, three treated animals (two with rinsed and one with unrinsed eyes) showed tilting of the head, Seven rabbits showed slight hairloss around the treated eye. Based on the results of this study, the substance has to be classified with category 1, H318, causing "irreversible effects on the eye/ causes serious eye damage" according to CLP Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
