Description of key information
Skin:
Based on the current data, 2-EHMA, iDMA, TDMA and LIMA, methacrylic acid ester 14.6 as well as NUMA as a UVCB and its single constituents are slightly irritating but clearly below the threshold for classification as skin irritant according to GHS.
Eye:
The UVCB substance NUMA with its single constituents are practically non to slightly irritating in the eye in analogy to 2-EHMA.
With only limited available data for the single constituents, this read across is conducted in a worst-case approach, adopting the test outcome and the classification for every constituent and the substance itself from the structural closely analogue 2-EHMA.

- Conclusions:
- n-Decyl methacrylate was slightly irritating in a primary skin irritation study in rabbits (24-hour occlusive application, no wash of the
test substance). No data in respect to reversibilty for times after > 72h observation. Only data of shaved skin have been used, data of shaved and
scarified skin have not been used.
According to the results of this dermal irritation study n-Decylmethacrylate has to be classified as follows:
According to GefStoffV: slightly below the irritancy threshold (non-irritant, but 24 hour application, no wash off the test substance)
According to EU-GHS (CLP): Hazard category: None (effects < 2.3 both erythem and oedema)
According to UN-GHS: Hazard category: 3 (Erythem > 1.5 but < 2.3, 24 hour application, no wash off the test substance) slightly irritating - Executive summary:
In a primary dermal irritation study New Zealand White rabbits were dermally exposed (intact and scarified skin) to
0.5 mL undiluted n-Decyl methacrylate for 24 hours. Animals then were observed for 3 days. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al, 1959.
The mean erythema score (average value of the single scores (animals 1-6; erythema; intact skin, 24h and 72h) was determined to be 1.667 out of 4 and the mean edema score was 0.9167 out of 4.

- Executive summary:
The cutaneous irritation that could be induced by 2-ETHYLHEXYL METHACRYLATE was evaluated in the rabbit according to the recommendations of the Federal Hazardous Substances Labelling Act Regulations, Section 191.11, published in the Federal Register (USA) -29 F.R. 13009, 1964.
2-ETHYLHEXYL METHACRYLATE was applied as supplied, at the dose level of 0.5 ml per animal, under an occlusive patch for 24 hours, to the intact and abraded skin of six New-Zealand albino rabbits. The cutaneous reactions were observed when the patches were removed and were again made at 72 hours.
Barely perceptible to moderate reddening and swelling of the skin were exhibited 24 hours following application. Reactions persisted to 72 hours. For the intact skin, the mean scores over 24 and 72 h were 1.9 and 2.2 for erythema and oedema, respectively.
Under these experimental conditions, 2-ETHYLHEXYL METHACRYLATE was considered as an slight irritant when applied 24 hours to the rabbit skin.

- Conclusions:
- In an acute dermal toxicity study 3000mg/kg of undiluted test substance were applicated to the shaved and shaved/abradet skin of 6 albino rabbits. Skin was observed after 24 und 72 hours for irritating reactions. Skin reactions were reevaluated acc. CLP criteria.
All scores were < 2.3. The highest mean erythema score is 2 for 3/6 animals, the highest edema score 0.5 for 3/6 animals. As the exposure time is too short, it strictly cannot be excluded that the substance has a higher irritating potential but reversibility is supposable. - Executive summary:
In an acute dermal toxicity study 3000 mg/kg of undiluted test substance were applicated to the shaved and shaved/abradet skin of 6 albino rabbits. Skin was observed after 24 und 72 hours for irritating reactions. Skin reactions were reevaluated acc. CLP criteria.
All scores were < 2.3. The highest mean erythema score is 2 for 3/6 animals, the highest edema score 0.5 for 3/6 animals. As the observation time is too short, it strictly cannot be excluded that the substance has a higher irritating potential but reversibility is supposable, but it is assumable that the animals were exposed with the test substance during the whole observation time.
According CLP classification Isodecylmethacrylate is not irritating in this study.
Remarks concerning the study result: The study for acute skin irritation/corrosion was performed before OECD 404 came into force. For this reason the test values were reevaluated according to CLP criteria and test scores (erythema, oedema) obtained for the scarified skin were regarded as irrelevant.

- Conclusions:
- Isotridecyl methacrylate has some mild irritating potential to skin.
However, it is non-irritating with respect to EU and UN-GHS classification criteria. - Executive summary:
In a primary dermal irritation study (OECD 404, GLP) 3 New Zealand White rabbits were dermally exposed for 4 hours with 0.5 g undiluted Isotridecyl methacrylate under semiocclusiv conditions. Animals were observed after 1h, 24h, 48h 72h and after 8 or 9 days. The test was reevaluated acc. CLP criteria. Mean erythema scores after 24, 48 and 72 hours were 0, 0.33 and 0.66 of max. 4. Mean edema scores 0, 1.33 and 1.66 of max. 4. All reactions were fully reversible after 72 h or 8 days. Under CLP criteria Isotridecyl methacrylate is not irritating to skin.
The results demonstrate that Isotridecyl methacrylate (CAS 85736-97-6) is not a dermal irritant.
Therefore the test substance has to be classified - according to EU and GHS classification criteria - as non irritant for skin (GHS-hazard category: none).

- Details on study design:
- Six New Zealand White rabbits were assigned to study. In order to investigate the reproducibility of the effects, each rabbit had two separate dose sites (shaved and shaved/scarified), which were treated with 0.5 ml of undiluted test material. In addition, two untreated areas (shaved and shaved/scarified) were used as the control. Only reactions which were different from those of the control were evaluated as positive reactions. For each treated dose site, 0.5 ml of undiluted test material was soaked onto a gauze patch (approx. 6 cm²/1 in²) which was held in place with adhesive tape on the shaved and shaved/scarified skin of the test animals. The animals were fixed in a holding device and their bodies were wrapped in a rubberised cloth for 24 hours. After this time dressing and adhesive tape were removed and the local reactions wer examined. 72 hours after application, the examinations were repeated. The test result is the average of the scores of the 24- and 72-hour examinations.

- Executive summary:
The cutaneous irritation that could be induced by 2-ETHYLHEXYL METHACRYLATE was evaluated in the rabbit according to the "Appraisal of the safety of chemicals in foods, drugs and cosmetics", Division of Pharmacology, FDA (Draize) (1959). 2-ETHYLHEXYL METHACRYLATE was applied as supplied, at the dose level of 0.5 ml per animal, under an occlusive patch for 24 hours, to the intact and abraded skin of six New-Zealand albino rabbits. The cutaneous reactions were observed when the patches were removed and were again made at 72 hours. On the shaved skin, 24 hours after application 5 of 6 animals showed well defined erythema. 72 hours after application 3 animals had well defined erythema while the other 3 had very slight erythema. Slight edema (and in two cases very slight edema) was present in all animals 24 hours after application. After 72 hours, no edema was observed except for one animal with very slight edema. On the shaved and scarified skin, 24 hours after application all animals showed well defined erythema, 72 hours after application the well defined erythema was still present in 5 of 6 animals while in one case it had developed to moderate to severe erythema. Slight edema (and in one case moderate edema) was present in all animals 24 hours after application. After 72 hours, very slight edema was observed in all animals. For the shaved skin, the mean scores over 24 and 72 h were 1.66 and 0.9 for erythema and oedema, respectively. Under these experimental conditions, 2-ETHYLHEXYL METHACRYLATE was considered as an slight irritant when applied 24 hours to the rabbit skin.

Slight erythema persisted in 4 animals after 72 hours and moderate erythema persited in 2 animals after 72 hours. Slight edema persited in 1 animal after 72 hours.
The treated abraded skin sites showed identical effects as the intact sites. For reevaluation only the sores of the intact skin were used.
Methacrylicacid ester 12.6 is a slight to moderate irritant under the conditions of the test.The data were reevaluated acc. DSD and CLP criteria and the test substance was classified as not irritating. - Interpretation of results:
- slightly irritating
- Remarks:
- Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: other: CLP, EU, GHS, (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008)
- Conclusions:
- Methacrylic acid ester 12.6 was slightly irritating in a primary skin irritation study (24 h exposure, occlusive, no wash of the test substance 72 h
observation time) in rabbits and is not skin irritating acc. CLP criteria.
Slightly irritating, but not irritating according to EU criteria.
Classification: not irritating - Executive summary:
In a primary dermal irritation study albino rabbits (strain: no data) were dermally exposed for 24 hours (intact and scarified skin) to 0.5 mL undiluted Methacrylic acid ester 12.6 for 24 hours. Animals then were observed for 72 hours. Irritation was scored by the method of Draize et al, 1959.
The test was performed with 6 animals so that both, the CLP and DSD approaches for evaluation were conducted. With the CLP approach the response of the individual animal values were averaged over the two observation times (24 hours and 72 hours after application) separate for erythema and edema. The mean erythema values were 1 for one animal, 1.5 for four animals and 2 for one animal. All values were below 2.3 that the substance has not to be classified acc. CLP criteria.
With the DSD approach the average score overall animals was used separate for erythema and edema. The overall mean erythema score was 1.25 and the mean overall edema score 0.08. Both values are below 2.3 that the substance has not to be classified acc. DSD criteria.
Methacrylic acid ester 12.6 is not skin irritating acc. CLP criteria.
Performance of the study does not comply with requirements of the relevant recent EU and OECD guidelines, where semi-occlusive dressing, an exposure period of 4 hours, treatment of only intact skin and a recovery period of up to 14 days is stipulated. This study is therefore of limited adequacy for C&L purposes due to intensity of the exposure regime and too short recovery period.

REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
Further information is included as attachment. Please also see attached justification.
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The constituents of the UVCB substance NUMA (Nonyl-Undecyl methacrylate) are structurally related mono alkyl methacrylate esters differing only in the respective alcoholic moieties. The main proportion of these esters are of the n-type the minor proportion of the iso type. Considering the small amount of iso-types and the negligible differences in (eco-) toxicological properties between the n- and iso types, in this assessment both types of one ester with one specific chain length are assessed together as a whole.

re-evaluated according to OECD 404
|
Remarks concerning the study result: The study for acute skin irritation/ corrosion was performed before OECD 404 came into force. For this reason the test values were reevaluated according to OECD criteria and test scores (erythema, oedema) obtained for the scarified skin were regarded as irrelevant. Classification criteria according to the different classification systems: EU-GHS: Category 1: Corrosive subcategories Corrosive in >= 1 of 3 animals (applies to authorities not using subcategories): Corrosive (only applies to some authorities) Subcategory Exposure Observation ------------------------------------------------------------ 1A <= 3 minutes <= 1 hour 1B > 3 minutes to <= 1 hour <= 14 days 1C > 1 hour to <= 4 hours <= 14 days ------------------------------------------------------------ A: Single harmonized corrosion category, using the results of animal testing. A: Corrosive is a test substance that produces destruction of skin tissue, namely, visible necrosis through the epidermis and into the dermis, in at least 1 of 3 tested animals after exposure up to 4 hours duration. Corrosive reactions are typified by ulcers, bleeding, bloody scrabs and, by the end of observation at 14 days, by discoloration due to bleaching of the skin, complete areas of alopecia and scars. Histopathologic determinations should be consided evaluate questionable lesions. Substances and/or mixtures are considered corrosive (Skin categorry 1) if it has a pH of 2 or less or a pH of 11.5 or greater. If consideration of alkali/acid reserve suggests the substance or prepatration may not be corrosive despite the low or high pH value, then further testing needs to be carried out to confirm this, preferably by use of an appropriate validated in vitro test. Category 2: (1) Mean value of >= 2.3 to < 4.0 for erythem/eschar or for oedema in at least 2 of 3 animals from gradings at 24, 48 and 72 hours after patch removal or, if reactions are delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of skin reactions, or (2) Inflammation that persits to the end of the observation period normally 14 days in at least 2 animals, particularly taking into account alopecia (limited area), hyperkeratosis, hyperplasia, and scalling, or (3) In some cases where there is pronounced variability of response amoung animals, with very definite positive effects related to chemical exposure in a single animal but less than the criteria above. UN-GHS (additional category 3): Category 3: Mild irritant (Applies to only some authorities for e.g. UN-GHS) Mean value of >= 1.5 to < 2.3 for erythem/eschar or for oedema from gradings in at least 2 of 3 tested animals from grades at 24, 48 and 72 hours or, if reactions are delayed, from grades on 3 consecutive days after the onset of skin reactions (when not included in the irritant category above). According to the results of this dermal irritation study n-Decylmethacrylate has to be classified as follows: According to GefStoffV: slightly below the irritancy threshold (non-irritant, but 24 hour exposition, no wash off the test substance) According to EU-GHS (CLP): Hazard category: None (effects < 2.3 both erythem and oedema) According to UN-GHS: Hazard category: 3 (Erythem > 1.5 but < 2.3, 24 hour exposition, no wash off the test substance)ems:

Subcat. Exposure Observation
1A <= 3 minutes <= 1 hour
1B > 3 minutes -- <= 1 hour <= 14 days
1C > 1 hour -- <= 4 hours <= 14 days
A single harmonized corrosion category is provided in Table 3.2.1, using the results of animal
testing. A corrosive is a test material that produces destruction of skin tissue, namely, visible necrosis
through the epidermis and into the dermis, in at least 1 of 3 tested animals after exposure up to a 4 hour
duration. Corrosive reactions are typified by ulcers, bleeding, bloody scabs and, by the end of observation at
14 days, by discoloration due to blanching of the skin, complete areas of alopecia and scars. Histopathology
should be considered to discern questionable lesions.
A mixture is considered corrosive (Skin Category 1) if it has a pH of 2 or less or a pH of 11.5 or greater. If
consideration of alkali/acid reserve suggests the substance or preparation may not be corrosive despite the low or high pH value, then further testing needs to be carried out to confirm this, preferably by use of an appropriate validated in vitro test.

Comparison with CLP criteria:
Remark: Exposure time was longer than 4 hours (during the whole
observation time) and the observation time was only 72 hours.
All scores < 2.3. The highest mean erythema score is 2 for 3/6 animals,
the highest edema score 0.5 for 3/6 animals..
Reversibility: no pathologic changes were noted 14 days after exposure. Remarks concerning the study result: The study for acute skin irritation/ corrosion was performed before OECD 404 came into force. For this reason the test values were reevaluated according to OECD criteria and test scores (erythema, oedema) obtained for the scarified skin were regarded as irrelevant.

- Conclusions:
- In an OECD 405 eye irritation study Isotridecyl methacrylate showed no signs of irritation. Therefore the substance has not to be classified acc. CLP
criteria. - Executive summary:
In an OECD 405 guideline study, with GLP, Isotridecyl methacrylate (0.1 ml) was placed in the conjunctival sac of the right eye of three New Zealand White rabbits. The lids were then gently held together for one second. The test eyes were not washed out following the instillation. The left eye remained untreated for control. The eyes were examined at 1, 24, 48 and 72 hours as well as 8 days from beginning of test. Eye irritation was scored for signs of corneal damage (density, area), iris reaction and lesions of the conjunctivae (erythema, chemosis, discharge). Additionally, the cornea was examined with the aid of fluorescein after recording the observations at 24 hours. One hour after dosing, one animals exhibited slight conjunctival redness and slight discharge. A second animal exhibited slight discharge one hour after dosing. At 24 hours following dosing all signs of irritation had resolved. The remaining third animal showed no signs of irritation at any time during the test. Isotridecyl methacrylate is considered as non-irritating to eyes.
The results demonstrate that Isotridecyl methacrylate (CAS 85736-97-6) is not an eye irritant.
Therefore the test substance has not to be classified - according CLP criteria.

The ocular irritation that could be induced by 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate was evaluated in the rabbit according to the recommendations of the "Appraisal of the safety of chemicals in foods, drugs and cosmetics", Division of Pharmacology, FDA (Draize) (1959). A single application of 0.1 ml of 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate in its original form was placed into the conjunctival sac of one eye of six New-Zealand white rabbits. The ocular reactions were observed at 24, 48 and 72 hours and up to 7 days after the instillation. Mean values (24+48+72 h) for ocular irritation were: 0.0 for chemosis, enanthema, congestion and opacity. Under these experimental conditions, 2-ethylhexyl methacrylate was considered as not irritating when administered to the rabbit by ocular route.

REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
Further information is included as attachment. Please also see attached justification.
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The constituents of the UVCB substance NUMA (Nonyl-Undecyl methacrylate) are structurally related mono alkyl methacrylate esters differing only in the respective alcoholic moieties. The main proportion of these esters are of the n-type the minor proportion of the iso type. Considering the small amount of iso-types and the negligible differences in (eco-) toxicological properties between the n- and iso types, in this assessment both types of one ester with one specific chain length are assessed together as a whole.
