Test results:

Cytogenetic effects were seen as follows.

At the highest concentration (900 µg/ml) after 6 hr short-term treatment with and without exogenous metabolic activation, 22.5 and 12.0% cells demonstrated structural chromosomal aberrations including gaps.

Genotoxic effects: clastogenicity    polyploidy

Conclusions:
weekly positive with metabolic activation
3,5-Dimethylaniline induced structural chromosomal aberrations in CHL/IU cells at highest concentration (900µg/L) after 6 hr short-term treatment with and without exogenous metabolic activation. Polyploidy was not induced under the conditions of the present study.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the in vitro tests on mutagenicity the test item is expected to be not mutagenic and classification according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 will not be warranted based on in vitro tests. But as weakly postitive results were observed in the OECD 473 study, risk management measures of hazard band "medium" will be applied for safety precaution.
