Results and discussion

Test results
Sex:
male
Genotoxicity:
negative
Toxicity:
not specified
Vehicle controls validity:
not specified
Negative controls validity:
not specified
Positive controls validity:
valid
Additional information on results:
TOTM was not mutagenic when compared with the positive control (METEPA, probably tris(1-(2-methyl)aziridinyl) phosphine oxide); results
with METEPA confirmed the validity of the system.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
Based on the data reported, the test material was not clastogenic.

Classification as clastogenic is not warranted under the new Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP) or under Directive 67/548/EEC for dangerous substances and Directive 1999/45/EC for preparations.
Executive summary:

Based on the data reported, the test material was not clastogenic.
