Eye Irritation Test vitti B-19913 in Rabbits
SUMMARY
B-19913 was evaluated for acute eye Irritation potential in 2 rabbits. Approximately 0 .01 b L of the test substance vas instilled into the lover conjunctival sac of the right eye of each rabbit. Approximately 20 seconds
after instillation, the treated and control eyes of 1 rabbit were washed.
The treated- and control eyes f the remaining rabbit were not washed. The
eyes of the rabbits were examined on the day of treatment and on d a y s 1, 2,
and 3 following treatment.
B-19913 produced moderate conjunctival redness in both treated rrabbit eyes. The treated washed and unwashed eyes were normal by 2 and 3 days, respectively, following treatment.
Under the conditions of this study, H-19913 was a moderate eye irritant.

INTRODUCTION
Du Pont HLR 885-92
The purpose of this study vas to evaluate the acute eye irritation potential of B-19913 in young adult rabbits. This study was conducted according to the applicable SPA Good Laboratory Practice Standards- Areas of noncoapliance are documented in the study records. No deviations existed that affected the validity of the study.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
A. Animal Husbandry
Young adult sale New Zealand White rabbits were received f r o m Hare
Karland, 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. The rabbits were offered 125 grams of Purina Certified H i g h Fiber
Eabbit Chow #5325 daily during the study. Water was available ad
libitum. Rabbits were quarantined, weighed, and observed for general
health for approximately 2 weeks. Animal rooms were maintained on a
timer-controlled, 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle. Environmental
conditions of the rooms were targeted for a temperature of 20C 2C and
relative humidity of 502 102. Excursions outside these ranges were
judged to have been of insufficient magnitude and/or duration t o have
adversely affected the validity of the study.
`
B. Protocol
On the day of treatment, the eyes of 2 male New Zealand W h i t e rabbits were examined using illumination, magnification, and fluorescein dye. These animals were selected for this study as they showed no evidence of preexisting corneal or conjunctival injury or irritation and w e r e judged to be in good health. These rabbits weighed 3185 or 2737 grams o n the day of treatment.
Approximately 0.01 mL of H-19913 was introduced into the l o w e r conjunctival sac of each right eye. The left eye of each rabbit was not treated with the test substance and served as a control. Approximately
20 seconds after the test substance was administered, both eyes o f 1 rabbit were rinsed for approximately 1 minute with room temperature
water. The treated and control eyes of the remaining rabbit were* not washed. Each rabbit was observed for approximately 30 to 60 seconds before being returned to its cage and any abnormal behavior was noted. In the absence of visible evidence to the contrary, the test subs tance was assumed to be stable under the conditions of administration.

Approximately 1 and 4 hours, and 1 2, and 3 days after B-19913 was administered, the rabbits were examined for evidence of eye irritation. At each of these observation periods, eyes were examined using illumination and signification and scored for ocular reactions according to the Draize scale (presented in Table 1). Eyes were also observed for any responses to treatment such as pannus, blistering o f the conjunctiva, ulceration, or other effects indicative of corrosive action. Control eyes were not scored. These untreated eyes were used f o r comparison and were considered "normal" relative to the treated eye.
C. Records Retention
3H ry data
the final report will be stored in the arehives of
EisfeelT laboratory fox Toxicology-and Industrial Medicine, E. I . du Pont
de Nemours and Company, Newark, Delaware or in the Du Pont Records
Maitageeent Center, Vilmington, Delaware.
RESULTS
H-1991? produced moderate conjunctival redness in both treated rabbit eyes. The t reated washed and unwashed eyes were normal by 2 and 3 days, respectively, following treatment. Individual eye irritation sco r e s are presented in Tables 2 and 3.
CONCLUSION
Under the conditions of this study, H-19913 was a moderate eye irritant.

sod according to the guide
to T h i T e b e l i n g of dangerous substances published in the Officiaf^Jouraal of
European Communities (EEC Directive 83/467, Annex VI), H-19913 probably could
be classified as a "NON-IRRITANT" until further data is availablIee.j1
