Any other information on results incl. tables

Mice were treated with Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts at dose of 2000 mg/kg bw for two consecutive days.

All animals survived and no signs of toxicity were observed.

The dissection of the animals revealed no test substance related macroscopic findings. The bone marrow smears were examined for the occurrence of micronuclei in red blood cells.

The incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes was within the normal range of the negative control groups. No statisticallysignificant increase of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes was observed.

The ratio of polychromatic erythrocytes to total erythrocytes remained essentiallyunaffected by the test compound and was not less than 20% of the control values.

Cyclophosphamide induced a marked and statistically significant increase in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei, thus indicating the sensitivity of the test system.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts did not induce clastogenic effect on the bone marrow cells in mice.

Executive summary:

Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts was investigated for its clastogenic potential according to the OECD Guideline 474. Mice were treated at dose of 2000 mg/kg bw for two consecutive days. No clastogenic effect was found in bone marrow cells and no effect on the ratio of polychromatic erythrocytes to total erythrocytes.

Pentapropylensuccinic anhydride, reaction products with ethanolamine, sodium and triethanolamine salts is considered to be a non-clastogenic compound.
