Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity screening study, performed similarly to the OECD guideline No. 401, a group of Sprague Dawley male and female rats (5 animals/sex) was given a single oral dose of Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide (named as DV-2422N in the study report) by gavage at the dose of  5000 mg/kg bw. The test item was administered as supplied (undiluted). Clinical signs, mortality and body weight gain were checked for a period of up to 14 days.All surviving animals were sacrificed at the end of the study and necropsied for gross abnormalities.

 

Oral LD50 rat combined males and females > 5000 mg/kg bw

 

3/5 females died within 48 hours of dosing whereas no male died. Males gained weight normally after dosing (mean of 119g for all males) whereas the surviving females gained weight but in a lesser extent (58 and 40 g gained at the end of the observation period for the 2 surviving females). Organs of the thorax and abdomen appeared normal in the survivors.

 

Under the test conditions, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is not classified for acute oral toxicity according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and the Directive 67/548/EEC.

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute oral toxicity endpoint.

Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is not classified for Acute dermal toxicity according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and the Directive 67/548/EEC.
Executive summary:

In an acute dermal toxicity study, performed in compliance with the GLP and according to the OECD 402 Guideline, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide was applied undiluted on the clipped and healthy intact skin (area of 10% of the whole body surface) of groups of Sprague Dawley male and female rats (5 animals/sex). 2000 mg/kg of the main consituents (i.e. 2780 mg/kg bw for the registered substance) was applied as a film on the skin. Clinical signs, mortality and body weight gain were checked for a period of up to 14 days. All animals were sacrificed at the end of the study and necropsied for gross abnormalities.

 

Dermal LD50in male and female rats > 2000 mg/kg bw

 

No mortalities occurred in any animals at the tested doses. No clinical signs indicative of a systemic toxicity were observed in any animals. No cutaneous reactions were observed in any animals. When compared with the historical control data, body weight of the animals was not affected by the test item treatment. The only macroscopic observation was enlarged spleen with irregular surface in a single female. This isolated finding was considered to be incidental and unrelated to the test item application.

 

Under the test conditions, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is not classified for acute dermal toxicity according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and the Directive 67/548/EEC.

This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for acute dermal toxicity endpoint.

Additional information

In an acute oral toxicity study performed similarly to the OECD 401 Guideline, a group of Sprague Dawley male and female rats (5 animals/sex) was given a single oral dose of undiluted Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide by gavage at the dose of  5000 mg/kg bw (test material as registered i.e. including impurities and resudual water necessary for the stability)

. 3/5 females died within 48 hours of dosing whereas no male died. Males gained weight normally after dosing whereas the surviving females gained weight but in a lesser extent. Organs of the thorax and abdomen appeared normal in the survivors. The LD50 combined males and females was therefore determined to be higher than 5000 mg/kg bw.

In a GLP-compliant acute dermal toxcitiy study performed according to the OECD 402 Guideline, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide was applied undiluted on the skin of groups of Sprague Dawley male and female rats (5 animals/sex) at the single dose of 2780 mg/kg bw (test material as registered i.e. including impurities and resudual water necessary for the stability). No mortalities occurred in any animals at the tested dose. No clinical signs indicative of a systemic toxicity were observed in any animals. No cutaneous reactions were observed in any animals and body weight of the animals was not affected by the test item treatment. The only macroscopic observation was enlarged spleen with irregular surface in a single female. This isolated finding was considered to be incidental and unrelated to the test item application. The LD50 was therefore determined to be higher than 2780 mg/kg bw.


Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Only one study available

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
Based on the physico-chemical properties (low vapour pressure of the main constituents of the registered substance) and unlikely aerosol formation, the inhalation route was not considered the most appropriate for the second acute toxicity study.

Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
Only one study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

Harmonized classification:

No harmonized classification is available according to the Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 including ATP3.

Self classification:

Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is not classified for the acute oral and dermal toxicity according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the Directive 67/548/EEC as the oral and dermal LD50 (rats) are higher than 2000 mg/kg bw.

No classification for the acute inhalation toxicity is proposed due to a lack of data.
