Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

EC# 457-320-2 showed no evidence of mutagenic potential in an Ames test, and EC# 434-650-5 - a substance structurally and chemically similar to EC# 457-320-2 - showed no evidence of genotoxic potential in an in vitro chromosome aberraton study and an in vivo mouse micronucleus study. In view of the similarity of the two substances, it is concluded that further testing on EC# 457-320-2 is unnecessary and read-across to the results for EC# 434-650-5 can be justifiably used. It is therefore concluded that EC# 457-320-2 is not genotoxic.


Short description of key information:
EC# 457-320-2 showed no evidence of mutagenic potential in an Ames test, and a substance structurally and chemically similar to EC# 457-320-2 showed no evidence of genotoxic potential in an in vitro chromosome aberraton study and an in vivo mouse micronucleus study.

Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)

Justification for classification or non-classification

EC# 457-320-2 showed no evidence of mutagenic potential in an Ames test, and EC# 434-650-5 - a substance structurally and chemically similar to EC# 457-320-2 - showed no evidence of genotoxic potential in an in vitro chromosome aberraton study and an in vivo mouse micronucleus study. In view of the similarity of the two substances, it is concluded that further testing on EC# 457-320-2 is unnecessary and read-across to the results for EC# 434-650-5 can be justifiably used. It is therefore concluded that EC# 457-320-2 is not genotoxic. Consequently, in accordance with the CLP Regulation in the absence of specific germ cell mutagenicity data, no classification is proposed for germ cell mutagenicity.
