Link to relevant study records
Reference
Endpoint:
in vitro gene mutation study in bacteria
Type of information:
read-across based on grouping of substances (category approach)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Justification for type of information:
The target substance is included in a category where a trend is identified. Data for the substances that procede and follow the target indicate genotoxic properties, therefore, the substance is genotoxic for interpolation. See Category rationale for further details.
Key result
Genotoxicity:
positive
Remarks on result:
other: Based on the read- across approach, the substance can be considered genotoxic.
Conclusions:
Based on the read- across approach, the substance can be considered genotoxic.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

According to Regulation (EC) n. 1272/2008, the substance can be considered genotoxic and is classified as H341, Muta, cat.2; in the presence of benzene the substance is considered H340, muta, cat. 1.
