Eye Irritation Test with HPD-7352A 1n Rabbits
SUMMARY
[was evaluated for acute eye Irritation potential In t young
adult rabbits. Both rabbits were dosed with a single 0.01 mL aliquot of test
material in 1 eye. In 1 rabbit the treated eye was washed after treatment.
In the other rabbit the treated eye was not washed. The contralateral eye of
each rabbit served as a control. Both eyes of each rabbit using illumination and magnification at 1 and 4 hours, and following treatment. Biom^croscopic and fluorescein stain also conducted on post-treatment days 1, 2 and 3.
were examined
1, 2. and 3 days examinations were
HHBHI produced mild conjunctival redness, slight chemosis and
minimal blood-tinged discharge by 1 hour after treatment in 1 rabbit. Conjunctival redness only was observed in this animal at 4 hours. Similar
ocular responses were observed in the second rabbit at 1 and 4 hours after
treatment with the additioiti of moderate iritis and slight generalized
opacity. Fluorescein stain and biomicroscopic examinations were neg i/e for cornea! injury in both treated eyes throughout the study. The treated eyes of both rabbits were normal by 1 day following study initiation.
Under the conditions of this study imBB^ was a moderate eye
irritant.

INTRODUCTION
Ou Pont HLR 385-89
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the acute eye Irritation potential of Q------Bin young adult rabbits. This study was conducted according to the applicable ^PAGood Laboratory Practice Regulations. Areas
of noncornpl^ance 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 was assigned a unique identification number which was recorded on a card affixed to the cage. Purina Certified High Fiber Rabbit Chow* 532<3 and water were available ad Mbitum. Rabbits were quarantined, weighed and observed for general heiTth for approximately 2 weeks. Animal rooms were maintained .-on a y.imer-cont rolled, 12-hour light/12-nour dark cycle. Environmental conditions of the rooms were targeted for a temperature of 20C ^ 2C and relative humidity of 50% j_ 10%. Excursions outside these ranges'were judged to have been of inTufficient magnitude and/or duration to have adversely affected the validity of the study.
B. Protocol
On me day of study initiation, the eyes of 2 female rabbits were
examined using illumination, magnification and fluorescein dye. These animals were selected for this study as they showed no evidence of
preexisting cornea"! or conjunctiva! Injury or irritation and were judged
to be in good health. These rabbits were approximately 14 weeks old and weighed 3067 "and 3086 grams, respectively, on the day of treatment.
A 0.01 ml aliquot of^B|||^was introduced into the lower
conjunctiva! sac of each right eye of 2 female rabbits. The left eye of
each rabbit was not treated with the test material and served as a
control. The^------ treated and control eyes of 1 animal remained
unwashed. Approximately 20 seconds after the tast material was administered, both eyes of the remaining rabbit were rinsed for
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.

Du Pont HLR 385-89
Approximately 1 and; 4 hours, and 1, 2 and 3 days after--------y was administered, the rabblks were examined for evidence of eye Irritation.
At each of these observation periods eyes were examined using Illumination and magn location and scored for ocular reactions using the Draize scale (presented In Table 1). Eyes were also observed for any unusual responses to treatment such as pannus, blistering of the conjunctiva, ulceration or other effects Indicative of corrosive action. Hemastix* reagent stripis were used to detect occult blood in discharge from the eye. B1om1crojscopic and fluorescein stain examinations were also conducted at post-treatment days 1, 2 and 3. The eyes were scored according to the method: of classification presented in Table 2. Control eyes were not scored, these untreated eyes were used for comparison and were considered "normal"' relative to the treated eye. C. Records Retention
All raw data and the final report will be stored in the archives of Haskell Laboratory for Toxicology and Industrial Medicine, E. I. du Pont
de Nemours and Company, Inc., Newark, Delaware or in the Du Pont Records Management Center, Wilmington, Delaware.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS
^UBi^produced mild conjunctival redness, slight chemosis and minimal
blood-tinged discharge by l| hour after treatment in 1 rabbit. Conjunctiva!
redness'only was observed in this animal at 4 hours. Similar ocular responses were observed in the second rabbit at 1 and 4 hours after treatment
with the addition of moderate iritis and slight generalized opacity.
Fluorescein stain and biomicroscopic examinations were negative for corneal injury in both treated eyes throughout the study. The treated eyes of both rabbits were normal by 1 day after study initiation. Individual eye
irritation scores are presented in Tables 3 and 4.
Under the conditions of this study ,1f^was moderate eye irritant.

TABLE 2 BIOMICROSCdPECLASSIFICATIONS OF CORNEAL INJURY
--------------(Momk 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 swan ing. 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.
