@No data were available on the genetic and related effects of benzyl chloride in humans.
@It did not induce MNs in mice treated in vivo. It induced DNA strand breaks but not UDS or CAs in cultured human cells,; conflicting results were obtained for the induction of SCEs. It induced SCEs, CAs, mutation and DNA strand breaks in cultured rodent cells. It induced somatic and SLRL mutations in Drosophila and mitotic recombination, gene conversion, mutation and DNA damage in fungi. Benzyl It induced mutation and DNA damage in bacteria.

yNotez (Sited from CICADS Documents, 6, 1999)
   In vitro studies with bacteria have yielded no evidence of mutagenic potential for biphenyl, whereas gene mutation and mitotic recombination were observed with Saccharomyces cerevisiae D7 in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. However, no gene conversion was observed with S. cerevisiae D3. Testing in mammalian cells has produced positive results for gene mutations and clastogenicity in the presence of metabolic activation and negative results in the absence of metabolic activation. In an in vivo rat cytogenetic assay of bone marrow cells, the incidence of chromosomal aberrations was not increased (no further information available) (Kawachi et al., 1980). The exposure by inhalation of male Sprague-Dawley rats to 64 or 320 mg biphenyl/m3 (as dust aerosol) for 7 h/day, 5 days/week, for 30 days (20 exposures in total) reportedly did not increase the frequency of chromosomal aberrations in the bone marrow (Dow Chemical Co., 1976). However, owing to insufficient documentation (i.e. no data available concerning dust particle size distribution or cell harvesting times) and the low number of metaphase cells examined (i.e. 50 cells per animal), the validity of this study cannot be ascertained. The results of in vitro studies indicate that biphenyl has mutagenic potential; in the absence of reassurance from reliable results from in vivo tests, it is assumed that exposure to biphenyl may be associated with a mutagenic risk.
