Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Additional information on results:
Doses producing toxicity:
No deaths were observed in this study. Adverse reactions in test substance treated animals included subdued nature,
hunched posture, piloerection, splayed gait, downward curvature of the spine and eyes half shut. No clinical signs were observed in any other group.

Observations:
A significant decrease in mean percentage of polychromatic

erythrocytes was only observed at 48 hours in test

substance-treated male mice. No statistically significant

increase in the frequency of micronuclei was observed in the

test substance-treated groups compared with controls.

Negative control values were within the range of historical

controls and a significant increase in the incidence of

micronuclei was observed with the positive control,

cyclophosphamide.
