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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
DEGDBE was not mutagenic in the in-vitro battery consisted of Ames test, HPRT and Chromosome aberration test.
Based on that no genotoxicity potential can be assigned.
With respect to the read-across approach used for the endpoints repeated dose toxicity, developmental toxicity and skin sensitization potential, it may be worth mentioning the carcinogenicitiy of EGBE observed in rats and mice. It is reported that EGBE induced forestomach tumour and hemangiosarcomas (summarized in EU Risk Assessment). But these effects were evaluated by EU and IARC not relevant for humans. No concern is derived with respect to carcinogenicity for EGBE.
Justification for selection of genetic toxicity endpoint
Three in-vitro tests are available (Ames test, Chromosome aberration test, HPRT). All three studies are considered to be equally valid.
Short description of key information:
No genotoxicity found in in-vitro tests.
Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)
Justification for classification or non-classification
No classification is derived based on the in-vitro data.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
