Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, the test item Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is not classified as skin irritant when applied topically to rabbits according to the criteria of the CLP regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and to the criteria of the Directive 67/548/EEC.
Executive summary:

In a dermal irritation study performed similarly to the OECD guideline No. 404, 3 New Zeland Albino rabbits, were dermally exposed to 0.5 mL of undiluted Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide.

Prior to the topical application, the skin of the rabbit was prepared with a clipper to remove the hair. After clipping, the right side of the animal was prepared by making epidermal abrasions, while the left site remained intact (clipped but unabraded). The test substance was then applied on the skin (abraded or not) on two different application sites (4 application sites in total on each animal). Then the test sites were covered with an occlusive dressing for 24 hours. Those exposure conditions correspond to a worst case approach as the test guidance recommends an exposure under semi-occlusive patch and for4h.Skin irritation was assessed and scored according to the Draize scale at 24 and 72 hrs after the topical application of the test patch.  

The mean individual scores calculated within 2 scoring times (24 and 72 hrs) for the unabraded skin were 0.5/1.0/1.0 for erythema and 0.5/1.0/1.0 for edema.

Under the test conditions, the test item Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is not classified as skin irritant when applied topically to rabbits according to the criteria of the CLP regulation (EC) 1272/2008 and to the criteria of the Directive 67/548/EEC.

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for skin irritation endpoint.
