Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

The IUCLID 4 dataset reports three results regarding genetic toxicity in vitro.

The three tests are summarised in the table below :-

  Test Method  Test Sysyem  Metabolic Activity  Result    GLP
Test 1 (7.6,001) OECD 471 (Ames)  S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100  With and without  Negative  Yes
Test 2 (7.6, 002)  Ames  Not indicated  Not indicated  Negative  No Data
Test 3 (7.6, 003)  SOS-Chromotest  Escherichia coli  Without  Negative  No Data

All three taken together contribute to the weight of evidence that 2 -chloropropionic acid is considered to be non-mutagenic.


Short description of key information:
Three study results are presented in the IUCLID 4 dossier and all report a negative result in the in vitro genetic toxicity studies, therefore no classification is required.

Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)

Justification for classification or non-classification

The conclusions from the three studies confirm that 2 -chloropropionic acid is considered to be non-mutagenic and therefore does nor warrant classification.
