The primary dermal irritation index (PDII) was 1.92.

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.

Interpretation of results:
Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
Under the test conditions, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is classified as Eye Dam. 1 (H318) according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and as Xi, R41 according to the Directive 67/548/EEC as irreversible effects on the eyes are observed in all 3 animals.
Executive summary:

In an eye irritation study performed similarly to the OECD No. 405 guideline, 0.1 mL of undiluted Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide was instilled into the right eye of 3 Albino New Zealand Rabbits.

The eyes were not washed following the instillation of the substance.

Animals were then observed for 14 days for redness, chemosis and discharge of the conjonctiva, corneal opacity and iris lesion. 

Eye irritation was assessed and scored according to the Draize scale at 24, 48 and 72 hrs after the instillation of the substance and then at days 7 and 14. The mean individual score were calculated within 3 scoring times (24, 48 and 72 hrs).

The mean individual scores were 1.0/2.0/2.0 for chemosis, 0.7/1.0/1.0 for iris lesion, 2.0/2.0/2.0 for conjunctival redness, and 2.0/3.0/3.0 for corneal opacity. All of these effects were not reversible within the termination of the study (14 days) in all animals.

Under the test conditions, Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is classified as Eye Dam. 1 (H318) according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and as Xi, R41 according to the Directive 67/548/EEC as irreversible effects on the eyes are observed in all 3 animals.

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

Additional information

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. The test substance was applied on the skin (abraded or not) and 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.

Justification for selection of skin irritation / corrosion endpoint:
Only one study available

Justification for selection of eye irritation endpoint:
Only one study available

Effects on eye irritation: highly irritating

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 skin irritation according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the Directive 67/548/EEC.

Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is classified as Eye Dam. 1 (H318: causes serious eye damage) according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) and as Xi, R41 according to the Directive 67/548/EEC as the observed ocular effects were irreversible in all treated animals.

Reaction mass of methacrylic acid and N-[2-(2-oxoimidazolidin-1-yl)ethyl]methacrylamide is also classified as STOT SE 3, H335 (May cause respiratory irritation) according to the Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) due to its content in Methacrylic acid which is classified as Skin Corr. 1A, H314 with a Specific Concentration Limit for STOT SE 3, H335 classification (C > 1%).
