Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative
Executive summary:

N,N-dimethylbenzylamine was tested for genotoxicity in Chinese hamster V79 cells according to OECD TG 376 in the presense and in the absence of a metabolic activation system (S9 -mix from rat liver). Based on the negative result N,N-dimethylbenzylamine was considered to be non-mutagenic in this test system.
