Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- no adverse effect observed (negative)
Additional information
This substance showed a positive effect in the in vitro Ames test, but only in the presence of metabolic activation.
In the in vivo micronucleus test (OECD TG474 protocol) the substance was negative.
It should be noted that its analogue 2,2,6,6 -piperidin-4 -ol (CAS 2403-88-5), i.e. the substance lacking the methyl group on the N, is described in the OECD SIDS for this chemical as follows:
"As for the genotoxicity, this substance was not mutagenic in bacteria [OECD TG 471 and 472].
An increase in chromosome aberrations in Chinese hamster lungs cells without S9 [OECD TG
473], were considered to be due to cytotoxicity and the study was considered to be “equivocal.”
A negative result was obtained in a rat bone marrow micronucleus assay [OECD TG 474]. Thus,
on the basis of the available data, 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-4-ol is not considered to be an in
vivo genotoxicant, as the questionable genotoxicity observed in vitro is not expressed in vivo ".
Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)
Justification for classification or non-classification
At the observed effect level there is no requirement to classify this substance for genetic toxicity
