"ENGLISH"
Withish deposits (probably jus) in the conjunctival sac.

Any other information on results incl. tables

A single application of 100 mg Vulcuren Trial product KA 9188 per animal into the conjunctival sac of the right eye of three rabbits caused the following changes:

Cornea opacity (grad 1) was observed in animal no. 1 and 2 at the examination time points 1 and 24 hours after instillation. The effect was fully reversible within 24 h.

The iris and conjunctivae were not affected by instillation of the test compound.

In addition, whitish deposits (probably pus) were observed in the conjunctival sac in animal no. 2 and 3 24 and 48 hours after instillation.

There were no systemic intolerance reactions.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

A single application of 100 mg Vulcuren Trial product KA 9188 per animal into the conjunctiva sac of the right eye of three rabbits caused very slightly cornea opacity effects (grad 1) in 2/3 animals 1 and 24 h after instillation (mean score 0.3). The effect was reversible within 24 hours. Based on these findings, the author assessed the test material Vulcuren Trial product KA 9188 as not irritating to eyes (LPT 1999).
