CONTAINED IN VOL. 11.05, 2009 Determines the duration and the numerical degree of eye irritation in young, adult albino rabbits, being an alternative to the standard Draize eye irritation method. This procedure produces more realistic data, and therefore a better basis for making predictions of eye responses from accidental exposure in man. It is applicable to both liquids and solids; but not to aerosols or vapors.
