Genetic toxicity in vitro
Description of key information
Gene mutation in vitro:
Ames test:
The test chemical 2-({4-[ethyl(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]phenyl}diazenyl)-6-methoxy-3-methyl-1,3-benzothiazol-3-ium acetate(84051-87-6) did not induce gene mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains used in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to be mutagenic in vitro.
Chromosome aberration study:
The test chemical 2-({4-[ethyl(2-hydroxyethyl)amino]phenyl}diazenyl)-6-methoxy-3-methyl-1,3-benzothiazol-3-ium acetate(84051-87-6) does not induce gene mutation in mammalian cell lines in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

- Evaluation criteria:
- 1 . Results were interpreted using a doubling of the mutant frequency over the concurrent solvent-treated control value as an indication of a positive effect, together with evidence of a dose-related increase. Doubling of the mutant frequency was previously reported as representing a positive effect. Only doses yielding total growth values of 10% were used in the analysis of induced mutant frequency. Doses yielding less than 10% total growth were used in determining dose response.
2. Selection of cells for scoring was based on well-spread chromosomes with good morphology and a chromosome number of 21 ± 2. Cells were analyzed for the following categories of chromosomal aberrations: “simple,” defined as a chromatid gap, break, fragment, and deletion or chromosome gap,break, or double minutes; “complex,” defined as interstitial deletions, triradials, quadriradials, rings, and dicentric chromosomes; and “other,” defined as pulverized chromosomesor cells with greater than 10 aberrations. Chromatid and chromosome gaps were recorded but were not used in the analysis.
A positive response at a single dose was designated “ + W”, weak evidence for clastogenicity. If there was a strong trend as the result of a large increase in ABs at a single dose only, we designated the result ‘‘ + W*”. A test was designated “ + ” if at least two doses gave significantly increased responses. - Statistics:
- 1. Not specified
2. A binomial sampling assumption as described by Margolin et al. was used to examine absolute increases in ABs over solvent control levels at each dose. The P values were adjusted by Dunnett’s method to take into account the multiple dose comparisons. Only the “total” percent cells with aberrations were analyzed, and a positive response was defined as one for which the adjusted P value was <0.05. - Species / strain:

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: Test concentrations for the AB assays were empirically chosen based on toxicity and cell cycle delay as noted in the SCE experiments. At least five
concentrations of the test chemical were selected; the concentrations were spaced using two merged half-log scales (e.g., 1,000, 500, 300, 150, 100, etc.), and the highest concentrations analyzed were those yielding a sufficient number of suitable metaphase cells. The concentrations analyzed generally covered a one-log range.

- other: No mutagenic potential
- Conclusions:
- The test chemical does not induce gene mutation in mammalian cell lines in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
- Executive summary:
Data for the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of test chemical . The studies are as mentioned below:
The gene mutation study was conducted according to L5178Y TK+/-Mouse Lymphoma Mutagenicity Assay to determine the mutagenic nature of structurally and functionally similar test chemical.The Cells at a concentration of 6 X 105/mL (6 X106cells total) were exposed for 4 h to a range of concentrations from 0.001 -6 µg/mL of the test chemical. The cells were then washed, resuspended in growth medium, and incubated at 37°C for 48 h. The rate of cell growth was determined for each of the treated cultures and compared to the rate of growth of the solvent controls.Results were interpreted using a doubling of the mutant frequency over the concurrent solvent-treated control value as an indication of a positive effect, together with evidence of a dose-related increase The test chemical did not induce a doubling of the mutant frequency both in the presence andabsence of S9 activation system and hence is not likely to be gene mutant in vitro.
In vitro mammalian chromosome aberration test was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. Approximately 24 hr before chemical treatment, cultures were initiated at a density of 1.75 X 106cells/75 cm2flask. In the AB trials without S9, the cultures were treated with the test chemical in medium for 8 hr, washed to remove the test chemical, and treated with colcemid M) for 2-2.5 hr before cell harvest. In the experiments with activation, cultures were exposed to the test chemical in serum free medium with S9 and cofactors for 2 hr, washed to remove the test chemical and S9, and incubated at 37°C with fresh medium for 8 hr. Colcemid was then added, andthe cells were harvested 2 hr later. Thus the total durations of the nonactivated and activated AB experiments were 10hr and 12 hr, respectively, to give 10 hr growth in medium with serum for each experiment. For ABs, slides were stained in 5% Giemsa for 5 min. In early studies, one hundred cells were scored for each ofthree concentrations: the highest test concentration in whichsufficient metaphase cells could be scored and the next two lower concentrations, covering a one-log range. For later studies, 200 cells per dose were scored; however, fewer cells were scored if a test chemical produced a strong positive response or the chemical was toxic. Cells were analyzed for the following categories of chromosomal aberrations: “simple,” defined as a chromatid gap, break, fragment, and deletion or chromosome gap,break, or double minutes; “complex,” defined as interstitial deletions, triradials, quadriradials, rings, and dicentric chromosomes; and “other,” defined as pulverized chromosomesor cells with greater than 10 aberrations. Chromatid and chromosome gaps were recorded but were not used in the analysis. The test chemical did not induce chromosome aberrations in the CHO-LB cell line in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
Based on the data summarized, test chemical does not induce gene mutation in mammalian cell lines in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence it is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
