Genetic toxicity in vitro

Description of key information

In accordance with REACH Annex XI, section 2, testing is technically not feasible as a consequence of the properties of the substance (hydrolytically unstable substance and quasi-instantaneously degraded in contact with moist skin or mucuous membranes to form Vanadium pentoxide and hydrogen chloride). There are sufficient data on the cleavage products (Vanadium pentoxide and hydrogen chloride were already registered in the frame of REACH) and the breakdown substance are exempted to Registration following Annex V (Entry I).

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Vanadium trichloride oxide quasi-instantaneously degraded in contact with moist skin or mucuous membranes to form Vanadium pentoxide and hydrogen chloride.

Testing Vanadium trichloride oxide for genetic toxicity is for this reason not relevant at all, but breakdown products have to be considered (classification for Vanadium pentoxide and hydrogen chloride have been elaborated in the frame of REACH).

For these reasons, no classification could be set for genetic toxicity.
