The prediction was based on dataset comprised from the following descriptors: "Chromosome aberration"
Estimation method: Taking highest mode value from the 5 nearest neighbours
Domain logical expression:Result: In Domain

(("a" and "b" ) and ("c" and "d" ) )

Domain logical expression index: "a"

Similarity boundary:Target: C(C)(=O)c1cc2c(cc(OC)cc2)cc1
Threshold=50%,
Dice(Atom pairs)

Domain logical expression index: "b"

Similarity boundary:Target: C(C)(=O)c1cc2c(cc(OC)cc2)cc1
Threshold=80%,
Dice(Atom pairs)

Domain logical expression index: "c"

Parametric boundary:The target chemical should have a value of log Kow which is >= 2.46

Domain logical expression index: "d"

Parametric boundary:The target chemical should have a value of log Kow which is <= 3.28

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The estimated genotoxicity of 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one for chinese hamster lung cell of chromosome aberration test using QSAR toolbox version 2.3 is found to be negative. Based on this value and and criteria of classifiction mentioned in new CLP regulation it can be concluded that 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one is not genetically toxic.
Executive summary:

The estimated genotoxicity of 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one for chinese hamster lung cell of chromosome aberration test using QSAR toolbox version 2.3 is found to be negative. Based on this value and and criteria of classifiction mentioned in new CLP regulation it can be concluded that 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one is not genetically toxic.

Based on the results summarized in above table for the target chemical CAS NO 3900-45-6 and read across, it can be concluded that the substance is non-genotoxic.Thus according to CLP criteria 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl) ethan-1-one is considered to be non-genetic toxic substance.

Justification for selection of genetic toxicity endpoint

The estimated genotoxicity of 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one for chinese hamster lung cell of chromosome aberration test using QSAR toolbox version 2.3 is found to be negative. Based on this value and and criteria of classifiction mentioned in new CLP regulation it can be concluded that 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one is not genetically toxic.

Justification for classification or non-classification

The subsatnce 1-(6-methoxy-2-naphthyl)ethan-1-one is not genotoxic as per CLP criteria
