Results and discussion
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results : negative
In the majority of the in vivo tests assessing CS2 mutagenic potential, a negative result was obtained, except for one case. The validity of the studies is uncertain due to technical issues (e.g. invalid controls).
Carbon disulphide (CAS number 75–15–0) is both reagents used in the manufacture of S-allyl O-pentyl dithiocarbonate. Therefore, Carbon disulphide (CAS number 75–15–0) need to be considered in the assessment of S-allyl O-pentyl dithiocarbonate. - Executive summary:
In male and female rats inhaling 63 or 125 mg carbon disulfide/m3, 7 hours per day for 1 or 5 days, there was no significant increase in the frequency of chromosomal aberrations in bone marrow cells (Belisles et al., 1980). In another study (Vasil’eva, 1982), oral exposure to carbon disulfide gave a mutagenic response, manifested as chromosomal aberrations and polyploid cells in the bone marrow of female rats and in rat embryos exposed on days 10–13 of gestation. According to the reviewer,'it is difficult to assess the validity of these findings, as the reporting was brief e.g., the statistical significance was often not indicated and the effective dose was not reported, except to indicate that it was one-tenth of the LD50 '. In the investigation of Belisles et al. (1980), male rats were exposed to 63–125 mg/m3 of CS2, 7 h/d for 5 d; no significant increase in dominant lethal mutations was observed, nor was there a dose related increase in sperm abnormalities in rats or mice exposed according to the same protocol. However, lack of an effect on sperm abnormalities in positive control rats suggests that there was a problem with the test methods in this study.
