Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
No data available.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Justification for classification or non-classification
The test substance Vulcuren was shown to be not genotoxic in an in vivo micronucleus assay (Bayer AG 2000c) and in vivo Comet assay (Lanxess GmbH 2005). No evidence of pre-neoplastic lesions was found in a repeated dose study with male and female Wistar rats (Bayer AG 2000d). There was no evidence of any gross pathological and histopathological findings associated to dosing with the test substance up to the highest dose group evaluated. Vulcuren (purity: 99.7%) has a very low local irritation potential on mucous membranes in an eye irritation study in rabbits (LPT 1999). In addition, no effects were detected on the gastrointestinal tract in an oral repeated dose study (Bayer AG 2000d). Overall it can be concluded that there is no evidence to anticipate a carcinogenic potential of Vulcuren based on the absence of a gentoxic potential in vivo and no observation of pre-neoplastic lesions in an oral repeated dose study.
Additional information
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
