Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

Gene mutation studies for 4-nitro-oxylenol conducted on Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 100 and TA 98 with metabolic activation (Rat, Liver, S-9, Kanechlor 500) showed negatve results. Based on this, this substance is not likely to cause genotixic effects.
