Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):negativeBased on an examination of the capacity of its constituents to induce gene mutation in bacteria, it is concluded that the registered substance is not expected to induce gene mutation in mammalian cells. The registered substance does not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 on the Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures.
Executive summary:

The potential of reaction mass of 2-aminoethanol and 6-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulphonyl]amino]hexanoic acid, compound with 2-aminoethanol (1:1) to induce gene mutation in bacteria is expected to be driven by the capacity of its constituents – 6-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulphonyl]amino]hexanoic acid, 2-aminoethanol, and water – to induce gene mutation in bacteria.

A GLP study has been performed on 6-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulphonyl]amino]hexanoic acid according to OECD Guideline 471 and concluded that the substance is negative for gene mutation in bacteria with and without metabolic activation.

The QSAR predictions performed on 2-aminoethanol demonstrated that the substance is not expected to induce gene mutation in bacteria. This conclusion supports a non-GLP study conducted in 1984 by Mortelmans et al. using a method equivalent to OECD Guideline 471, which found 2-aminoethanol to be negative for gene mutation in bacteria with and without metabolic activation.

Based on the activity of its constituents, it is concluded that reaction mass of 2-aminoethanol and 6-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulphonyl]amino]hexanoic acid, compound with 2-aminoethanol (1:1) is not expected to induce gene mutation in bacteria. No further testing is considered as required.
