Description of key information

Gene mutation in vitro:

Ames test:

Executive summary:

Data available for the test chemical was reviewed to determine its mutagenic nature of test chemical. The studies are as mentioned below:

The test chemical was studied for its ability to induce mutations in strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. The test compound was dissolved in DMSO and was tested at concentration of 0, 222, 444, 888, 1776 or 3552 µg/plate using Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 in the presence and absence of liver S9 metabolic activation system. Liquid preincubation assay was performed with a preicubation for 30 mins. The plates were observed for histidine independence. Concurrent solvent and positive controls were included in the study. The test chemical is not mutagenic to the Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 in the presence and absence of liver S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

In another study, Gene mutation by the spot assay was performed for the test chemical. The given chemical was used at dose level of 200 µg/plate both with and without S9 metabolic activation system. The plates were incubated for 3 days at 37°C for the growth of colonies to occur. The plates were observed for an increase in the number of His+ revertants. The criteria adopted for scoring a mutagenic response in routine plate tests was that the observed number of revertants should exceed twice the background value for that given assay and exceed the 99.9% confidence limit based on our historical controls. Concurrent positive control was also included in the study. The test chemical did not induce mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, TA98, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538 with and without S9 metabolic activation system in the spot test performed and hence is not likely to classify for gene mutation in vitro.

Based on the data available for the test chemical is not mutagenic to the Salmonella typhimurium strains in the presence and absence of liver S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Data for the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of 2,4-bis[(E)-2-(4-dodecylphenyl)diazen-1-yl]benzene-1,3-diol ( 65087-00-5). The studies are as mentioned below:

 

AMES Assay;

The test chemical was studied for its ability to induce mutations in strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. The test compound was dissolved in DMSO and was tested at concentration of 0, 222, 444, 888, 1776 or 3552 µg/plate using Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 in the presence and absence of liver S9 metabolic activation system. Liquid preincubation assay was performed with a preicubation for 30 mins. The plates were observed for histidine independence. Concurrent solvent and positive controls were included in the study. The test chemical is not mutagenic to the Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 in the presence and absence of liver S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

 

In another study, Gene mutation by the spot assay was performed for the test chemical. The given chemical was used at dose level of 200 µg/plate both with and without S9 metabolic activation system. The plates were incubated for 3 days at 37°C for the growth of colonies to occur. The plates were observed for an increase in the number of His+ revertants. The criteria adopted for scoring a mutagenic response in routine plate tests was that the observed number of revertants should exceed twice the background value for that given assay and exceed the 99.9% confidence limit based on our historical controls. Concurrent positive control was also included in the study. The test chemical did not induce mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, TA98, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538 with and without S9 metabolic activation system in the spot test performed and hence is not likely to classify for gene mutation in vitro.

Based on the data summarized, 2,4-bis[(E)-2-(4-dodecylphenyl)diazen-1-yl]benzene-1,3-diol ( 65087-00-5)did not induce gene mutation .Hence it is not likely to be mutagenic in vitro.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the data available for the test chemical, 2,4-bis[(E)-2-(4-dodecylphenyl)diazen-1-yl]benzene-1,3-diol ( 65087-00-5) not likly to exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to be mutagenic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
