Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Gene mutation of the targetMethyl (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetatewas estimated by using the following predictors: Derek Nexus, Sarah Nexus, Vega (four models).

The predictors were employed in order to apply a weight of evidence (WoE) approach to enhance the reliability of the prediction. In the weight of evidence assessment only reliable predictions are to be taken into account.

Vega models predicted the target compound as non-mutagenic (low reliable - CAESAR), non-mutagenic (low reliable - SarPy/IRFMN), non-mutagenic (not reliable - ISS) and mutagenic (moderate reliable - KNN/Read-Across).

Derek Nexus predicted the chromosome damage in vitro as PLAUSIBLE and the mutagenicity in vitro as INACTIVE.

Sarah Nexus predicted the target compound as negative.

Therefore, it was concluded that Methyl (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate was predicted as positive for chromosome damage in vitro and as negative for mutagenicity in vitro.
