Diglycidyl 1,2-cyclohexanedicarboxylate is combustible.
HPADGE was tested in vitro for
gene mutation effects in S. typhimurium at concentrations up
to 231 mg/mL and was positive in strains TA100 and
TA1535. HPADGE has also been reported as positive
in the mouse lymphoma assay. Negative results were
found in the BALB/3T3 fibroblast transformation assay
at concentrations up to 30 mg/mL. In vivo,
HPADGE administered orally in a single dose of 1250,
2500, or 5000 mg/kg to Chinese hamsters produced a statistically
significant increase in SCEs in bone marrow cells
at the two higher dose levels. Mice given a single oral
dose of 500 or 1000 mg/kg had a statistically significant
increase in the frequency of micronucleated polychromatic
erythrocytes compared to negative controls.
