Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Genetic toxicity in vitro

Description of key information

In vitro and in vivo studies are available. The in vitro data performed on dicopper hydroxide phosphate has been conducted in accordance with recommended guidelines and under the conditions of GLP and is therefore considered to be reliable for use in assessing the genotoxic potential of the material to be registered. In addition two in vivo studies on the analogous material copper sulphate are also available and as such the genotoxicity endpoint has been fulfilled by applying a weight of evidence approach.
All available studies indicate that copper and copper compounds are not genotoxic.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

The data set is considered to be adequate and reliable for the purpose of classification and labelling in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (EU CLP) and as such the test substance is not considered to be genotoxic.
