- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- Undiluted: Immediately after instillation of the test material, the rabbits vocalized, indicating severe eye irritation. At the 24 h time point, the unwashed and washed eyes in all the rabbits showed severe eye irritation with corneal lesions. The severity was only slightly reduced by the 72 h time point. In rabbits with both unwashed and washed eyes the corneal opacity and corneal lesions were still visible by fluorescein treatment on day 7. The corneas were keratinised in all the animals after day 7, a condition which is irreversible. One animal with unwashed and one with washed eyes was sacrificed on day 7 due to the severe eye damage (see Table 1).
The pH of the undiluted liquid is 12.5, which means that the effect of the test substance is most probably due to the high alkalinity. This is also indicated by the severe eye damage that even the 25% dilution caused.
50% dilution: The eyes of the three rabbits showed severe eye irritation from the 24 h time point, with lesions on the cornea. The severity was only slightly reduced by the 72 h time point. The eyes were keratinised after day 14, a condition which is irreversible. One animal was sacrificed on day 14 and one by day 21 due to the severe eye damage.
25% dilution: The eyes of the rabbits in the unwashed and washed group showed severe eye irritation and corneal lesions when examined after 24 hours. The eyes of all the rabbits were keratitised after day 14, with the exception of one animal in the washed eye group, where the effects were almost or completely reversed by day 21. Of the rabbits with unwashed eyes, 4 were sacrificed on day 14 due to the severity of the damage. - Other effects:
- There was no effect on body weight.
