Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
No classification required
Executive summary:

No mutagenicity assay was performed with ZK 5624 (gestonorone acetate), results of studies with a different ester of gestonorone (gestonorone caproate, ZK 5623) are regarded as representative:

Results of a dominant-lethal test in mice with ZK 5623 did not indicate a mutagenic potential up to the highest tested dose of 200 mg/kg.
