Description of key information

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, gene mutation was predicted for 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-3,6-bis(ethylamino)-2,7-dimethylxanthylium ( 65138-66-1). The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with and without S9 metabolic activation system. 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-3,6-bis(ethylamino)-2,7-dimethylxanthylium was predicted to not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the predicted result it can be concluded that the substance is considered to not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

Additional information

Prediction model based estimation and data from read across chemical have been reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl) phenyl]-3,6-bis(ethylamino)-2,7-dimethylxanthylium ( 65138-66-1). The studies are as mentioned below

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.3 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, gene mutation was predicted for 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-3,6-bis(ethylamino)-2,7-dimethylxanthylium ( 65138-66-1). The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with and without S9 metabolic activation system. 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-3,6-bis(ethylamino)-2,7-dimethylxanthylium was predicted to not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the predicted result it can be concluded that the substance is considered to not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

In a study for structurally and functionally similar read across chemical, Gene mutation toxicity study was performed by Errol Zeiger et al. (Environmental Mutagenesis, 1985) to determine the mutagenic nature of Dioctyl phthalate (117-84-0) IUPAC: 1, 2-dioctyl benzene-1, 2-dicarboxylate. The read across substances share high similarity in structure and log kow .Therefore, it is acceptable to derive information on mutation from the analogue substance. Dioctyl phthalate was assessed for its possible mutagenic potential. For this purpose bacterial reverse mutation assay was performed on Salmonella Typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TAl00. The test substance was exposed at the test concentration of 100-10000µg/plate by Preincubation method. The test was conducted in the presence and absences of S9.No mutagenic effect were observed in all strain both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. Therefore Dioctyl phthalate was considered to be non mutagenic in bacterial reverse mutation assay. Hence the test substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.

In a study for structurally and functionally similar read across chemical, Gene mutation toxicity study was performed by Errol Zeigeret.al. (Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, 1988) to determine the mutagenic nature of Bis(2-ethylhexyl)isophthalate IUPAC : 1, 3-bis (2-ethylhexyl) benzene-1, 3-dicarboxylate (137-89-3) . The read across substances share high similarity in structure and log kow .Therefore, it is acceptable to derive information on mutation from the analogue substance. Bis(2-ethylhexyl)isophthalate was assessed for its mutagenic potential .For this purpose AMES assay was performed on Salmonella Typhimurium strains TA97, TA98, TA100, TA1535, and TA1537.The test material was exposed at the concentration of maximum dose of 10 mg/plate in the presence and absence of S9. Therefore Bis(2-ethylhexyl)isophthalate was considered to be non mutagenic in Bacterial reverse mutation assay. Hence the substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the data available for the target chemical and its read across substance and applying weight of evidence 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-3,6 -bis(ethylamino)- 2,7 -dimethylxanthylium ( 65138-66-1)does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Thus based on the above annotation and CLP criteria for the target chemical. 9-[2-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyl]-3,6 -bis(ethylamino)- 2,7 -dimethylxanthylium ( 65138-66-1)does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
