Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information

In vitro studies

As reported in Chemical Information Profile for Alkylaniline NTP 2009 with reference to Thompson et all, Environ Mutagen, 5(6):803-811, 1983 2-ethylanylnie resulted negative in Salmonella typhimuriumstrains TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, G46, C3076, and D3052 and in Escherichia colistrains WP2 and WP2uvrA- with or without S9.

Always in Chemical Information Profile for Alkylaniline NTP 2009 with reference to Thompson et all, Environ Mutagen, 5(6):803-811, 1983 it is reported that 2-ethylaniline did not induce unscheduled DNA synthesis in rodent hepatocytes

 

In vivo studies

No data available

 

Conclusion

Based on above results, there is no reason of concern regarding genetic toxicity of 2-ethylaniline.

Justification for classification or non-classification

As reported in Chemical Information Profile for Alkylaniline NTP 2009 2 -ethylaniline was negative in Ames test and in unscheduled DNA synthesis in rodent hepatocytes.

No classification is proposed for genetic toxicity of 2-ethylaniline according to the CLP Regulation (EC n. 1272/2008).
