- Remarks on result:
- other: slight chemosis (score 1) was observed in both animals 1 hr post-instillation
- Irritant / corrosive response data:
- No corneal or iridial effects were noted during the study.
Moderate conjunctival irritation was noted in both treated eyes one hour after treatment.
Both treated eyes appeared normal at the 24-Hour observation.
Initial pain response upon substance instillation into the eye of the first animal was 3 by 6-point scale. Therefore one drop of local anaesthetic (Tetracaine hydrochloride 0.5%, Chauvin Pharmaceuticals, Romford, Essex, UK) was instilled into both eyes of the second animal 1 to 2 minutes before treatment. - Other effects:
- Both animals showed expected gain in bodyweight during the study.
