Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The substance does not show any activity on bacterial mutagenicity. Also bacterial mutagenicity studies with other alkylnitriles show negative results. Additionally, a mammalian chromosomal aberration study on V97 cells according to OECD 473 has been performed with Dodecanenitrile and also does not indicate any genotoxic potential.

 

Additionally, the alkylnitriles do not react with DNA or react to protein (indicated by OECD Toolbox profiling).

Short description of key information:

In vitro Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test (Ames): not mutagenic

In vitro Mammalian Chromosomal Aberration Test: not genotoxic

Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)

Justification for classification or non-classification

Alkylnitriles do not interact with DNA or protein. Available bacterial mutagenicity studies and an in vitrochromosomal aberration study show no indication of genotoxic potential.
