Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), Annex I, Part 3, substances which cause concern for humans owing to the possibility that they may induce heritable mutations in the germ cells of humans are classified in Category 2. This classification is based on positive evidence obtained in:

— somatic cell mutagenicity tests in vivo, in mammals; or

— other in vivo somatic cell genotoxicity tests which are supported by positive results from in vitro mutagenicity assays.

Note: substances which are positive in in vitro mammalian mutagenicity assays, and which also show chemical structure activity relationship to known germ cell mutagens, shall be considered for classification as Category 2 mutagens.

In vitro mutagenicity tests are the following:

in vitro mammalian chromosome aberration test;

in vitro mammalian cell gene mutation test;

— bacterial reverse mutation tests.

Based on the responses in the available experimental studies and estimation, a genotoxic potential for target substance is excluded. Therefore, it is not classified according to the CPL Regulation (EC 1272/2008).
