Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In an in vivo mouse micronucleus assay, conducted to a protocol similar to OECD Test Guideline 474 and pre-GLP, HEDP (2-3Na) did not cause any increase in the number of PCEs detected after ip administration. Appropriate controls were included and gave expected result. It is concluded that HEDP (2-3Na) is negative for induction of micronuclei under the conditions of the test.
