Endpoint summary

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Genetic toxicity in vitro

Description of key information

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, gene mutation was predicted for 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine. The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with S9 metabolic activation system. 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine was predicted to not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the predicted result it can be concluded that the substance is considered to be not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

Additional information

Gene toxicity in vitro:

Prediction model based estmation and data from read across chemical has been reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test compound 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine. The studies are as mentioned below:

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, gene mutation was predicted for 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine. The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with and without S9 metabolic activation system. 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine was predicted to not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

From the study for read across chemical (RA CAS no 369 -01 -0), Gene mutation toxicity study was performed by Mortelmans et al (Environmental Mutagenesis, 1986) for the test compound Triamterene to evaluate its mutagenic nature. The study was performed as per the preincubation protocol in two labs using Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA98 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system at doses of 0, 100, 333, 1000, 3333, 10000µg/plate in lab 1 and 0, 33, 100, 333, 1000, 2000, 3333 µg/plate in lab 2. The plates were incubated for 48 hrs after 20 mins preincubation before the evaluation of the revertant colonies could be made. Triamterene did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA98 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Another Gene mutation toxicity study was performed (J-check, 2016) for the test compound Sodium naphthionate (RA CAS no 130 -13 -2) to evaluate its mutagenic nature. Salmonella typhimurium TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvr A2 were used in the preincubation assay both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system at doses of 0, 313, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000µg/plate. The plates were incubated for 48 hrs after 20 mins preincubation before the evaluation of the revertant colonies could be made. Sodium naphthionate did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvr A2 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the data available for the target chemical and its read across, the test chemical 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro as per the criteria mentionedin CLP regulation.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the data available for the target chemical and its read across, the test chemical 2-Chloro-6,7-dimethoxy-4-quinazolinamine does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro as per the criteria mentionedin CLP regulation.
