Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

6,6'-[[3,3',5,5'-tetrakis(1,1-dimethylethyl)-[1,1'- biphenyl]-2,2'-diyl] bis(oxy)]bis-dibenzo[d,f][1,3,2]-dioxaphosphepin was tested in ames and chromosomal aberration assay. The results of the Salmonella-Escherichia coli/Mammalian-Microsome Reverse Mutation Assay Preincubation Method with a Confirmatory Assay with test material indicate that under the conditions of this study, the test article did not cause a positive increase in the mean number of revertants per plate with any of the tester strains either in the presence or absence of microsomal enzymes prepared from Aroclor™-induced rat liver (S9). There were no significant increases in the frequencies of cells with aberrations in either the absence or presence of S9 activation. Cultures treated with the positive control chemicals (i.e.,mitomycin C without S9 and cyclophosphamide with S9) had significantly higherincidences ofabnormal cells inall assays. Baseduponthese results, the test materialwas considered to be non-genotoxic in thisin vitrochromosomal aberration assayutilizing rat lymphocytes.
