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 (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile. The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with S9 metabolic activation system. (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile 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 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 be not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

Genetic toxicity in vivo
Description of key information
In vivo micronucleus assay was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of cinnamyl nitrile. The study was performed as per OECD 474 using male and female NMR1 mice. The test chemical was dissolved in corn oil and used at dose levels of0, 50, 100, 200 mg/Kg bw for 24 hrs and 200 mg/Kg bw for 48 hrs in the main study and 150 mg/Kg bw for 24 and 48 hrs in the repeat study. Cinnamyl nitrile at 200 mg/kg was lethal in seven male mice and in one female mouse. Due to the low survival rates of the male mice, mutagenicity could not be assessed. Hence, additional males were treated with 150 mg/kg and prepared at 24 and 48 h post treatment.The mice were given a single oral dose of the test chemical and were observed for acute toxic symptoms at intervals of 1, 2–4, 6, 24 and 48 h after administration of the test material. The animals were sacrificed using CO2 followed by bleeding and observed for micronuclei formation in bone marrow cells. In the main stusy, Cinnamyl nitrile did not induce micronuclei formation in bone marrow isolated from male and female NMR1 mice. In the repeat experiment, the number of PCEs was not substantially decreased when compared to the mean value of PCEs of the vehicle control thus indicating that cinnamyl nitrile did not exert any cytotoxic effects in the bone marrow. In comparison to the corresponding vehicle controls there was no statistically significant or biologically relevant enhancement in the frequency of the detected micronuclei at any preparation interval or dose level after administration of the test item. The mean values of micronuclei observed after treatment with cinnamyl nitrile were below or near to the value of the vehicle control group. Based on the observations made, cinnamyl nitrile is non-mutagenic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

Additional information
Gene mutation:
Data available for the target chemical, its predicted data and data from read across chemicals have been reviewed to determine the muutagenic nature of (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile in vitro and in vivo. The studies are as mentioned below:
In vitro:
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 (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile. 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. (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile 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.
Gene mutation toxicity was predicted for (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile using the battery approach from Danish QSAR database (2017). The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium bacteria in the Ames test. The end point for gene mutation has been modeled in the Danish QSAR using the three software systems Leadscope, CASE Ultra and SciQSAR. Based on predictions from these three systems, a fourth and overall battery prediction is made. The battery prediction is made using the so called Battery algorithm. With the battery approach it is in many cases possible to reduce “noise” from the individual model estimates and thereby improve accuracy and/or broaden the applicability domain. Gene mutation toxicity study as predicted by Danish QSAR for (E)-3-phenylprop-2-enenitrile is negative and hence the chemical is predicted to not classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
In a study by Bhatia et al (Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2013), in vitro micronucleus test was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of cinnamyl nitrile (CAS no 1885 -38 -7). The study was performed as per OECD 487 using Chinese Hamster V79 cellsin the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. The test chemical was dissolved in DMSO and used at dose levels of 0,2.5, 5.1, 10.2, 20.3, 40.6, 81.3, 162.5, 325, 650, 1300µg/mL. The cells were exposed to the test chemical for 4 hours and were provided with an expression time of 24 hrs.Cinnamyl nitrile induced micronuclei formation in Chinese Hamster V79 cells in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. However the data obtained in this study provides false positive results and hence the test chemical is considered to be negative for gene mutation in vitro.
In the same study by Bhatia et al, Gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of cinnamyl nitrile (CAS no 1885 -38 -7). The study was performed using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100 with and without S9 metabolic activation system. Cinnamyl nitrile did not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
Gene mutation toxicity study was performed (J-check, 2017) to determine the mutagenic nature of 70 -80% structurally and functionally similar read across chemical β- bromostyrene (RA CAS no 103 -64 -0; IUPAC name: (2-bromovinyl)benzene). The study was performed as per the OECD guideline 471 using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1535 and E. coli WP2 uvrA with and without of S9 metabolic activation system. The study was performed at various dose levels and in triplicate plates/dose. Concurrent solvent and positive control chemicals were incorporated in the study. The plates were observed for dose dependent increase in the number of revertnats/plate. β- bromostyrene did not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1535 and E. coli WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
In another study mentioned in J-check (2017) for the same read across chemical, Chromosomal aberration study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of β- bromostyrene (RA CAS no 103 -64 -0; IPAC name: (2-bromovinyl)benzene). The study was performed using CHL/IU cell line. The duration of treatment was short term from 6-18 hrs and continuous treatment for 24 and 14 hrs. The doses were dissolved in DMSO and the dose levels were Short term treatment (With S9: 0, 0.90, 1.81, 3.61, 7.23 or 14.5µg/mL, Without S9: 0, 7.23, 14.5, 28.9, 57.8 or 116µg/mL), for 24 hrs and 48 hrs treatment (Without S9: 0, 14.5, 28.9, 57.8 or 116µg/mL) and retest dose level was 0, 5.71, 8.56, 12.8, 19.3 or 28.9µg/mL with S9. Concurrent solvent and vehicle control chemicals were included in the study. β- bromostyrene did not induce chromosomal aberrations in CHL/IU cell line in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
In another study for 60 -70% structurally similar read across chemical by Sekizawa and Shibamoto (Mutation research, 1982) gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of cinnamyl alcohol (RA CAS no 104 -54 -1; IUPAC name: 3-phenylprop-2-en-1-ol). The study was performed using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 1538, TA 98 and TA 100 and E. coli WP2 uvrA with and without S9 metabolic activation system. The chemical was dissolved in DMSO and used at dose levels of 0, 250, 750, 1500 and 3000 µg/plate. The assay without S9 were performed by the plate-incorporation method and the assay with S9 were conducted by the pre-incubation method. The plates were observed for number of revertants/plate. Concurrent solvent and positive controls were included in the study. Cinnamyl alcohol did not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 1538, TA 98 and TA 100 and E. coli WP2 uvrA with and without S9 metabolic activation system and hence the chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
In vivo:
In vivo micronucleus assay was performed by Bhatia et al (Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2013) to determine the mutagenic nature of cinnamyl nitrile (CAS no 1885 -38 -7). The study was performed as per OECD 474 using male and female NMR1 mice. The test chemical was dissolved in corn oil and used at dose levels of 0, 50, 100, 200 mg/Kg bw for 24 hrs and 200 mg/Kg bw for 48 hrs in the main study and 150 mg/Kg bw for 24 and 48 hrs in the repeat study. Cinnamyl nitrile at 200 mg/kg was lethal in seven male mice and in one female mouse. Due to the low survival rates of the male mice, mutagenicity could not be assessed. Hence, additional males were treated with 150 mg/kg and prepared at 24 and 48 h post treatment.The mice were given a single oral dose of the test chemical and were observed for acute toxic symptoms at intervals of 1, 2–4, 6, 24 and 48 h after administration of the test material. The animals were sacrificed using CO2 followed by bleeding and observed for micronuclei formation in bone marrow cells. In the main stusy, Cinnamyl nitrile did not induce micronuclei formation in bone marrow isolated from male and female NMR1 mice. In the repeat experiment, the number of PCEs was not substantially decreased when compared to the mean value of PCEs of the vehicle control thus indicating that cinnamyl nitrile did not exert any cytotoxic effects in the bone marrow. In comparison to the corresponding vehicle controls there was no statistically significant or biologically relevant enhancement in the frequency of the detected micronuclei at any preparation interval or dose level after administration of the test item. The mean values of micronuclei observed after treatment with cinnamyl nitrile were below or near to the value of the vehicle control group. Based on the observations made, cinnamyl nitrile is non-mutagenic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
Based on the aboave data available for the target chemical and its read across, Cinnamyl nitrile does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro and in vivo. The false positive result obtained in the in vitro micronucleus test is further confirmed by the negative mutagenic effects noted in the in vivo micronucleus study. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro and in vivo as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
