Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

No data is available on mutagenicity of the substance being registered. However, data for a similar substance is used for read-across to meet the data requirement. The key study for mutagenicity is an OECD 471 compliant study in a representative alkylbenzene sulfonate salt identified as AS 702 Calcium Sulfonate. In this standard study, no indication of mutagenicity was observed.

No data is available on cytogenicity of the substance being registerd. However, data for a similar substance is used for read-across to meet the data requirement. The key study for cytogenicity is an OECD 473 study evaluting chromosomal abberations in human blood lymphocytes. In this study, no indication of cytogenicity was observed in multiple replicates.


Short description of key information:
Testing for a representative alkaryl sulfonate salt was negative for mutagenicity and also negative for cytogenicity.

Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)

Justification for classification or non-classification

Representative alkylbenzene sulfonate salts do not meet the criteria set out in Directive 67/548/EEC and also Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 for classification for genotoxic effects. Classification of EC No. 271-877-7 for effects genotoxicity is not considered to be necessary based on chemical similarity to those representative substances.
