FHSA PRIMARY SKIN IRRITATION/CORROSION

This study is designed to show the degree of skin irritation caused by the test article under evaluation. Six rabbits were used in the test. Twenty
four hours prior to dosing, the hair on each animal's back was removed with clippers. One inch square pieces of the test article were cut and
applied to intact and abraded areas on the skin of each animal. The squares of test article were held in place with surgical tape. To protect the
dosing sites and to promote occlusion, the trunks of each animal were wrapped with gauze, which was held in place with tape. The gauze was then wrapped with an elastic bandage.
After 24 hours, the animals were unwrapped and the article removed. The test sites were observed and scored 24 and 72 hours after dosing. Based on the scores, a Primary Irritation Index was calculated in order to evaluate the material's potential to be a primary irritant.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 2 (irritant)
Remarks:
Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
N-Dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide is slightly irritating according to the Draize et al. (1944) scoring system.
The reevaluation of the study results according to GHS-criteria reveal to GHS-category: 2 for N-Dimethylaminopropylmethacryamide. Therefore
N-Dimethylaminopropylmethacrylamide would be classified as skin irritating according to GHS-criteria.
Executive summary:

In a primary dermal irritation study 6 rabbits (strain: no data, sex: no data) were dermally exposed via a covered patch (FHSA-procedure) to 0.5 ml undiluted (intact and abraded skin) Dimethylaminopropyl Methacrylamide (purity: >=98%) for 24 hours. Animals then were observed for 3 days. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al. 1944.

In this study, Dimethylaminopropyl Methacrylamide is not a dermal irritant as primary irritation score of 4.3 out of 8 is less than 5.0 evaluation

according to Draize et al., 1944.

No formation of edema (intact skin, mean primary irritation index: 0). It is slightly irritating to the skin based on scoring according to Draize et al., 1944. Reevaluation of the study results according to GHS-criteria N-Dimethylaminopropylmethacryamide would be classified as skin irritating, GHS-category: 2.
