Endpoint:
in vitro gene mutation study in bacteria
Remarks:
Type of genotoxicity: gene mutation
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2001
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
The study is described in the SIDS Initial Assessment Report for SIAM 30 which is peer-review by the Japanese government. The study followed OECD TG 471 and was performed under GLP. The Klimisch rating was taken over from the SIDS dossier. However as the full study report and full individual data were not available for full reliability assessment, a Klimisch 2 reliability for this study is proposed in the dossier.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

2-ethylanthraquinone did not induce gene mutations in bacteria under the conditions of this study.
