Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

A compliance check (CCH-D-2114586980-34-01/F) on genetic toxicity is ongoing. To meet the request of the recent compliance check, a new in vivo genetic toxicity study is planned according to the autoritiy´s request. The dossier will be updated accordingly and submitted in regard to the defined deadline (21 Nov 2023).

Genotoxicity was evaluated in bacterial and mammalian cell assays. The Ames test yielded a clear positive result whereas the Mouse Lymphoma Assay showed no genotoxic effects. The chromosomal aberration assay performed in mammalian cells assay did not show a clastogenic effect.

The appraisal that Ziram should not be classified as genotoxic is confirmed by three in-vivo assays, two micronucleus assays in murine blood and bone marrow and a cytogenetic assay in murine spermatogonia. All assays were clearly negative.

Short description of key information:

Thiram was mutagenic in bacteria, but negative in mammalian test systems, including in-vivo assays.

Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)

Justification for classification or non-classification

The appraisal that Ziram should not be classified as genotoxic is confirmed by three in-vivo assays, two micronucleus assays in murine blood and bone marrow and a cytogenetic assay in murine spermatogonia. All assays were clearly negative.
