Additional information
Ethisterone (ZK 4957) did not show any mutagenic potential in a bacterial reverse mutation assay with S. typhymurium (TA 1535, TA 100, TA 1537, TA 102, TA 98) when tested up to 2.5 mg/plate (precipitation found) in the absense and presense of intrinsic metabolic activation (liver mix from Aroclor 1254 -treated rats) (Bayer Schering Pharma AG, Report No. A48453; 2010 -02 -02)
Short description of key information:
Gene mutation (Bacterial reverse muation assay/AMES test, GLP): negative with and without metabolic activation
[Bayer Schering Parma AG, Report No. A48453; 2010-02-02]
Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)
Justification for classification or non-classification
Ethisterone (ZK 4957) was tested in a standard genotoxicity test and did not show any genotoxic potential. Thus, there is no sufficient evidence available to classify ethisterone as genotoxic.
Ethisterone is not classified as genotoxic according to the German legislation (TRGS-905).
Classification according to Directive 67/548/EEC and Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 (CLP) is not required.
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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
