Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Carcinogenicity
Administrative data
Description of key information
The available read across data and available weight of evidence demonstrate that Hydrocarbons, C15-C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics are highly unlikely to be carcinogenic and is not classifiable as a carcinogen. Further testing is not required under Annex XI, section 1.2.

Justification for classification or non-classification
These findings do not warrant the classification of Hydrocarbons, C15 -C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics as a carcinogen under the CLP Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 on classification, labeling and packaging of substances and mixtures.
Additional information
Hydrocarbons, C15-C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics are not genotoxic and are not classifiable as mutagens based upon the results of reliable in vitro and in vivo studies. In bacterial reverse mutation studies, C15 -C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics were not mutagenic in the presence or absence of metabolic activation (IUCLID section 7.6.1). In mammalian cells in vitro there were no mutagenic, clastogenic or aneugenic effects reported in read-across from studies on hydrodesulfurized kerosene kerosene: a negative chromosome aberration (Human Peripheral Lymphocyte Chromosomal Aberration Test, Chinese Hamster Ovary Sister Chromatid Exchange Assay) (IUCLID section 7.6.1).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
