INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the acute eye irritation ootential of ^ M i n young adult rabbits. This study was conducted according to t K p p l i c a b l e ^PA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. Areas 5 ^ 2 c 2 p l ? i c e are documented In the study records. No deviations existed that significantly affected the validity of the study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A. Animal Husbandry
Young adult female New Zealand White rabbits were received from Hare
Marland Hewitt, New Jersey. The rabbits were housed singly in
suspended, stainless steel, wire-mesh cages. Each rabbit ^ assigned a
unique identification number which was recorded on a card affixed to the
cage. Purina Certified High Fiber Rabbit Chow* #5325 and
f
available ad libitum. RUbbits were quarantined, weighed and ^ v e d for
qeneral health for approximately 2 weeks. Animal rooms were maintained
.on a i.imer-controlled, 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle.
L
conditions of the rooms were targeted for a temperature of 20 C + 2 C and
relative humidity of 50% + 10%. Excursions outside these ranges were judged to have been of insufficient magnitude and/or duration to have
adversely affected the validity of the study.
B. Protocol
On i.ne day of study initiation, the eyes of 2 female rabbits were examined using illumination, magnification andhfluJr^ c ^ d^ : QIh animals were selected for this study as they showed no evidence of pilexlst" g cornJal or conjunctival injury or irritation and ere judged to be in good health. These rabbits ere approximately 14 * e k s old and weighed 3067 and 3086 grams, respectively, on the day of treatment.
' A 0 01 mL aliquot o f ^ M ^ ^ w a s introduced Into the lower conjunctival sac of each right eye of 2 female rabbits. The ^ eye 0 each rabbit was not treated with the test material and served as control! T h e < U S i b * treated and control eyes of 1 animal remained unwashed. Approximately 20 seconds after the test administered, both eyes of the remaining rabbit were rinsed fo approximately 1 minute with water at room temperature.
Each rabbit was observed for approximately 30 to 60 seconds before being returned to its cage and any abnormal behavior was noted.

TABLE 2 BIOMICROSCdPE CLASSIFICATIONS OF CORNEAL INJURY
1 (Biomic of Cornea)
0 = No injury; cornea within normal limits.
Slight (1) = Epithelial changes visible only with biomicroscope (may include localized area of mild injury).
Mild (2) = Opacity visible with ophthalmoscope or light but showing epithelial changes only with biomicroscope (may include localized area of moderate injury).
Moderate (3) = Opacity visible with ophthalmoscope or light but showing epithelial and stromal changes with biomicroscope (may include localized area of severe injury).
Moderate to Severe (4) = Opacity visible with ophthalmoscope or light but showing epithelial and stromal changes and endothelial relucency with unremarkable swelling. This type of injury shows evidence of healing (reversible damage) within 14 days.
Severe (5) = Opaqueness or opacity visible with ophthalmoscope or light but showing epithelial and stromal
' changes and endothelial relucency and swelling or other distortion. This type of injury does not show evidence of healing (permanent damage) within 14 days.
- = No biomicroscope evaluation performed.
