Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
Based on the experimental conditions reported the oral application of the substance to mice did not induce micronuclei as determined by the micronucleus test in the bone marrow cells (polychromatic erythrocytes).
