Study design
In this GLP study performed according to OECD GL 476 the test item was assayed for its ability to induce mutations at the TK locus (5-trifluorothymidine resistance) in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells using a fluctuation protocol. The study consisted of two independent experimental series, each conducted in the absence and presence of an exogenous metabolizing system (S9 mix from livers of rats pre-treated with Aroclor 1254). Ethanol was used as the solvent. The exposure times were 3 and 24 hours in the absence and 3 hours in the presence of S9 mix, respectively. Test item concentrations ranging from 15.8 to 5000 μg/mL were tested in the absence or presence of S9 mix.
Results
No precipitation of the test material in the incubation medium was observed. Clear cytotoxic effects, i.e. a relevant decrease in either the % relative survival or % total growth of the test cells, occurred at the highest concentration tested in the 1st experiment in the absence of S9, i.e. at 5000 μg/mL. The doses tested were selected to determine viability and mutagenicity (5 -trifluorothymidine (TFT) resistance) 2 days after treatment. Negative (solvent) and positive control treatments were included in each mutation experiment in the absence and presence of S9 mix. Mutant frequencies in negative control cultures fell within normal ranges, and clear increases in mutation were induced by the positive control chemicals 4-nitroquinoline N-oxide (without S9 mix) and 7, 12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (with S9 mix). Therefore, the study was accepted as valid.
Conclusion
No relevant increases in mutant frequency were observed following treatment with test item in the two experimental series in the absence and presence of S9 mix. It is therefore concluded that the test item is non-mutagenic in this test system under conditions where the positive controls exerted potent mutagenic effects.

- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- The assessment of test material-induced effects is dependent on the number of spontaneous revertants of each bacterial strain (solvent controls) and the increase in the number of revertants at the test material concentration which shows the highest number of colonies. The following criteria, based upon the historical controls of the laboratory and statistical considerations, are established:
Mean Number of Colonies Maximal Mean Number of Colonies over
(Solvent Control) the Actual Solvent Control (Test Material)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<=10 <=9 >=30
<=30 <=19 >=40
<=80 <=29 >=80
<=200 <=49 >=120
<=500 <=79 >=200
Assessment: No increase Clear increase
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All further results, ranging between "no" and "clear", are assessed as "weak in-creases".
Interpretations:
A test material is defined as non-mutagenic in this assay if:
- "no" or "weak increases" occur in the first and second series of the main experiment. ("Weak increases" randomly occur due to experimental variation.)
A test material is defined as mutagenic in this assay if:
- a dose-related (over at least two test material concentrations) increase in the number of revertants is induced, the maximal effect is a "clear increase", and the effects are reproduced at similar concentration levels in the same test system;
- "clear increases" occur at least at one test material concentration, higher concentrations show strong precipitation or cytotoxicity, and the effects are reproduced at the same concentration level in the same test system.
In all further cases, a third test series with the bacterial strain in question should be performed. If the criteria for a positive test result are not fulfilled in at least two out of the three series, the test material is defined as being non-mutagenic in this test system. - Evaluation criteria:

Study design
In this GLP study performed according to OECD GL 471 the test item was tested for its mutagenic potential using triplicate cultures of Salmonella typhimurium tester strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 1535 and TA 1537, and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA in a plate incorporation test. Two independent experimental series were performed in the absence and presence of metabolic activation (S9 mix). With metabolic activation, either 10 % or 30 % S9 in the S9 mix were used in the first and second experimental series, respectively. The test item was dissolved in ethanol and tested at concentrations ranging from 5 – 5000 μg/plate.
Results
Toxicity to the bacteria was not observed. Treatment of the bacteria with appropriate positive control compounds led to clear increases in the number of revertant colonies, thus, showing the expected reversion properties of all strains and adequate activity of the S9 mix. Treatment with the test material resulted in frequencies of revertant colonies that were similar to those of the negative controls in two independent experimental series with and without metabolic activation at concentrations of up to 5000 μg/plate. Thus, no relevant increase in the number of induced revertant colonies was observed after treatment with the test item.
Conclusion
The test item did not induce gene mutations under the experimental conditions described and is thus not mutagenic in this Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay.
