Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:

GHS criteria not met

Conclusions:

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 as the LD50 combined male and female in rat is higher than 5000 mg/kg bw.

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.
