Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Details on study design:
16 patients with or without previous handling experience with IBOMA containing materials, were patch tested with IBOMA (1%) according to standard methodology with Finn chambers on Scanpore.

Results and discussion

Results of examinations:
Results of patch testing with Isobornyl methacrylate (1 %) showed 2 of 2 patients with negative reactions.
No positive reactions were observed. 2 of 2 tested patients showed a negative patch test reaction to IBOMA (patch test concentration: 1%).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No positive reactions were observed. 2 of 2 tested patients showed a negative patch test reaction to IBOMA (patch test concentration: 1%).
Executive summary:

16 patients with skin and nail reactions to acrylics from 1978 to 1987 were evaluated. There were 13 females and

three males (age 22 - 62 years). Five were atopic. Eleven were occupational. The 5 cases which were not occupationally caused included four of the five nail cases and one case with a denture reaction.
Thirteen had contact dermatitis, two nail dystrophy, and one had both contact dermatitis and nail dystrophy. Of the 14 cases of contact 

dermatitis, 11 were allergic, one was irritant and two were not determined. 
Most were patch-tested according to standard methodology with Finn chambers on Scanpore. Patch testing was usually performed with

the standard screening series of the North American Contact Dermatitis Group  (NACDG) and one or more acrylic chemicals. Acrylics 

were tested in  petrolatum (pet.). Results of patch testing with Isobornyl methacrylate (1 %) showed 2 of 2 patients with negative reactions.
