Description of key information

Prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, gene mutation was predicted for Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); Acid Red 183 (6408-31-7). The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with and without S9 metabolic activation system. Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); was predicted to not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro. Based on the predicted result it can be concluded that the substance is considered to not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation

Prediction model based estimation and data from read across chemical have been reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); Other name Acid Red 183 (6408-31-7). The studies are as mentioned below

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, gene mutation was predicted for Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); Acid Red 183 (6408-31-7). The study assumed the use of Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 with and without S9 metabolic activation system. Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); was predicted to not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro. Based on the predicted result it can be concluded that the substance is considered to not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 3.4 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, chromosomal aberration was predicted for Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); Acid Red 183 (6408-31-7) .The study assumed the use of Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line with and without S9 metabolic activation system Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-)was predicted to not induce chromosomal aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell line in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence, according to the prediction made, it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro. Based on the predicted result it can be concluded that the substance is considered to not toxic as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.

In a study for structurally and functionally similar read across chemical, Gene mutation toxicity study was performed by National Institute of Technology and Evaluation (Japan chemicals collaborative knowledge database, 2017) to determine the mutagenic nature of 4,4'-Isopropylylidenebis(2,6-dibromophenol (79-94-7). The read across substances share high similarity in structure and log kow .Therefore, it is acceptable to derive information on mutation from the analogue substance. Genetic toxicity in vitro study was assessed for 4,4'-Isopropylylidenebis(2,6-dibromophenol. For this purpose AMES test was performed according to Guidelines for Screening Mutagenicity Testing of Chemicals (Japan) and OECD Test

Guideline 471.The test material was exposed to Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537, Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of metabolic activation S9. The concentration of test material used in the presence and absence of metabolic activation were as fallow

-S9 mix; 0, 78.1, 156, 313, 625, 1250, 2500 µg/plate(TA100)

-S9 mix; 0, 19.5, 39.1, 78.1, 156, 313, 625 µg /plate(TA1535)

-S9 mix; 0, 156, 313, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000 µg /plate (WP2 uvrA, TA98)

-S9 mix; 0, 4.88, 9.77, 19.5, 39.1, 78.1, 156 µg /plate(TA1537)

+S9 mix; 0, 156, 313, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000 µg /plate(TA100, TA98,

TA1535, WP2 uvrA)

+S9 mix; 0, 9.77, 19.5, 39.1, 78.1, 156, 313 µg /plate(TA1537)

No mutagenic effects were observed in all strains, in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. Therefore 4,4'-Isopropylylidenebis(2,6-dibromophenol was considered to be non mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537, Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA by AMES test. Hence the substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.

In a study for structurally and functionally similar read across chemical, Gene mutation toxicity study was performed by Aparajita Das et al.( Int J Hum Genet, 2004) to determine the mutagenic nature of Tartrazine (1934-21-0); IUPAC name: Trisodium 5-hydroxy-1-(4-sulphophenyl)-4-(4-sulphophenylazo) pyrazole-3-carboxylate. The read across substances share high similarity in structure and log kow .Therefore, it is acceptable to derive information on mutation from the analogue substance. Ames mutagenicity assay was performed to evaluate the mutagenic nature of the test compound tartrazine using the plate incorporation assay. Tartrazine was dissolved in sterile double distilled water and was tested at a concentration of 0, 100, 250, 500 and 1000 μg /plate. The plates were inverted within an hour and placed in a dark vented incubator at 37⁰C for 48 hours. Positive controls (for TA97a and TA98, 20 μg/plate nitro phenylene diamine and for TA100, 1.5 μg/plate sodium azide) and negative controls were maintained concurrently for all the experiments. Three plates were used for each set. After 48 hours of incubation, the revertants colonies were counted. Tartrazine did not induce gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97a, TA98 and TA100 and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the data available for the target chemical and its read across substance and applying weight of evidence Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]-2-hydroxybenzene-1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); Other name Acid Red 183 (6408-31-7)does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

Justification for classification or non-classification

Thus based on the above annotation and CLP criteria for the target chemical Disodium [5-chloro-3-[[4,5-dihydro-3-methyl-5-oxo-1-(3-sulphophenyl)- 1H-pyrazol-4-yl]azo]- 2-hydroxybenzene -1-sulphonato(4-)]hydroxychromate(2-); Other name Acid Red 183 (6408-31-7)does not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
