| Abstract | Chemical hazard evaluations are important for work-ers’ health and working environments. tert-Butyl methacrylate (CAS No. 585-07-9) is used in many in-dustries, leading to concerns about the possibility of threats to the health of workers. Since only insufficient or controversial information is available about potential related hazards, Ames assay and in vitro mammalian chromosomal aberration (CA) assay were conducted in order to gain additional information concerning any such hazards. Moreover, toxicologi- cal information from this study could be applied for workers’ rights as background knowledge, and for the preparation or update of the Materials Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for a number of industries. In this Ames reverse mutation study, treatment of 1,250, 625, 312.5, 156.25, 78.125 pg/plate did not induce mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537, or in Escherichia coli WP2uvrA with and without metabolic activation. In vitro chromosomal aberration assay was performed using the Chinese hamster lung fibroblast cell (ATCC, CRL-1935) by the direct method (− S9) and by the metabolic activated method (+S9 mix) at a dose of 0.039, 0.078, 0.156, 0.312, 0.625, 1.25, 2.5 mg/mL. Using the direct method, the seven dosages in the 48-hour treatment group did not show that the frequency of CA was proportional to the dosage. The frequency of CA is not proportional to the dosage addition for a six-hour treatment using the metabolic activated method. From these findings, the chemical does not have mutagenic potential under the conditions of the Ames assay, but also does not induce chromosomal aberrations under the tested conditions. However, further investigations are necessary because it may be harmful to workers after ingestion, inhalation, skin or eye contact. It is also desirable to prepare a local exhaust system and to wear personal protection equipment. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
