- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- The test item was accurately weighed and approximate half-log dilutions prepared in sterile distilled water by mixing on a vortex mixer and sonication for 5 minutes at 40°C on the day of each experiment. To aid suspension, the test item was formulated at 12.5 mg/ml, which was four times less than required on Vogel-Bonner agar plates. To compensate, each formulation was dosed using 400 µm (0.4 ml) aliquots. All formulations were used within four hours of preparation and were assumed to be stable for this period. Analysis for concentration, homogeneity and stability of the test item formulations is not a requirement of the test guidelines and was, therefore, not determined.
The S9 microsomal fraction was prepared in-house from rats induced with Phenobarbitone/ß-Naphthoflavone at 80/100 mg/kg/day, orally, for 3 days prior to preparation on day 4. The S9 homogenate was produced by homogenising the liver in a 0.15 M KCI solution (1g liver to 3 ml KCI) followed by centrifugation at 9000 g.
The protein content of the resultant supernatant was adjusted to 20 mg/ml. Aliquots of the supernatant were frozen and stored at approximately -196 °C. Prior to use, each batch of S9 was tested for its capability to activate known mutagens in the Ames test.
The S9-mix was prepared immediately before use using sterilised co-factors and maintained on ice for the duration of the test.
S9 5.0 ml
1.65 M KCI/O.4 M MgCI2 1.0 ml
0. 1 M Glucose-6-phosphate 2.5 ml
0. 1 M NADP 2.0 ml
0. 2 M Sodium phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) 25 ml
Sterile distilled water 14.5 ml
A 0.5 ml aliquot of S9-mix and 2 ml of molten, trace histidine or tryptophan supplemented, top agar were overlaid onto a sterile Vogel-Bonner Minimal agar plate in order to assess the sterility of the S9-mix. This procedure was repeated, in triplicate, on the day of each experiment.
Top agar was prepared using 0.6 % Bacto agar and 0. 5 % sodium chloride with 5 ml of 1.0 mM histidine and 1.0 mM biotin or 1. 0 mM tryptophan solution added to each 100 ml of top agar. Vogel-Bonner Minimal agar plates were purchased from ILS Limited and SGL Ltd.
Preliminary Toxicity Test
In order to select appropriate dose levels for use in the main test, a preliminary test was carried out to determine the toxicity of the test item. The concentrations tested were 0, 0.15, 0.5, 1.5, 5, 15, 50, 150, 500, 1500 and 5000 µg/plate. The test was performed by mixing 0. 1 ml of bacterial culture (TA 100 or WP2uvrA), 2 ml of molten, trace histidine or tryptophan supplemented, top agar, 0. 4 ml of test item formulation and 0.5 ml of S9-mix or phosphate buffer and overlaying onto sterile plates of Vogel-Bonner Minimal agar (30 ml/plate). Ten concentrations of the test item formulation and a vehicle control (sterile distilled water) were tested. In addition, 0.4 ml of the maximum concentration of the test item and 2 ml of molten, trace histidine or tryptophan supplemented, top agar were overlaid onto a sterile nutrient agar plate in order to assess the sterility of the test item. After approximately 48 hours incubation at 37°C the plates were assessed for numbers of revertant colonies using a Domino colony counter and examined for effects on the growth of the bacterial background lawn.
Mutation Test - Experiment 1
Five concentrations of the test item (50, 150, 500, 1500 and 5000 µg/plate) were assayed in triplicate against each tester strain, using the direct plate incorporation method. Measured aliquots (0.1 ml) of one of the bacterial cultures were dispensed into sets of test tubes followed by 2 ml of molten, trace histidine or tryptophan supplemented, top agar, 0.4 ml of the vehicle or test item formulation or 0.1 ml of positive control and either0.5 ml of S9-mix or phosphate buffer. The contents of each test tube were mixed and equally distributed onto the surface of Vogel-Bonner Minimal agar plates (one tube per plate). This procedure was repeated, in triplicate, for each bacterial strain and for each concentration of test item both with and without S9-mix. All of the plates were incubated at 37 °C for approximately 48 hours and the frequency of revertant colonies assessed using a Domino colony counter.
Mutation Test - Experiment 2
The second experiment was performed using fresh bacterial cultures, test item and control solutions. The test item dose range was the same as Experiment 1 (50 to 5000 µg/plate).
As it is good scientific practice to alter one condition in the replicate assay, the exposure condition was changed from plate incorporation to pre-incubation.
The test item formulations and vehicle control were therefore dosed as follows:
Measured aliquots (0.1 ml) of one of the bacterial cultures were dispensed into sets of test tubes followed by 0.5 ml of S9-mix or phosphate buffer and 0.4ml of the vehicle or test item formulation and incubated for 20 minutes at 37 °C with shaking at approximately 130 rpm prior to the addition of 2 ml of molten, trace histidine or tryptophan supplemented, top agar. The contents of the tube were then mixed and equally distributed on the surface of Vogel-Bonner Minimal agar plates (one tube per plate).
This procedure was repeated, in triplicate, for each bacterial strain and for each concentration of test item both with and without S9-mix. The positive and untreated controls were dosed using the standard plate incorporation as previously described.
All of the plates were incubated at 37 °C for approximately 48 hours and the frequency of revertant colonies assessed using a Domino colony counter. - Evaluation criteria:
- There are several criteria for determining a positive result. Any, one, or all of the following can be used to determine the overall result of the study:
1. A dose-related increase in mutant frequency over the dose range tested (De Serres and Shelby (1979)).
2. A reproducible increase at one or more concentrations.
3. Biological relevance against in-house historical control ranges.
4. An indication of a positive result as determined by a statistical analysis of the data as recommended by UKEMS (Mahon et al (1989)).
5. Fold increase greater than two times the concurrent solvent control for any tester strain (especially if accompanied by an out-of-historical range response).
A test item will be considered non-mutagenic (negative) in the test system if the above criteria are not met.
Although most experiments will give clear positive or negative results, in some instances the data generated will prohibit making a definite judgement about test item activity.
Results of this type will be reported as equivocal. - Statistics:
- The reverse mutation assay may be considered valid if the following criteria are met:
All bacterial strains must have demonstrated the required characteristics as determined by their respective strain checks according to Ames et al (1975), Maron and Ames (1983) and Mortelmans and Zeiger (2000).
All tester strain cultures should exhibit a characteristic number of spontaneous revertants per plate in the vehicle and untreated controls. Acceptable ranges are presented in the General Study Plan, Section 4 (negative controls). Combined historical negative and solvent control ranges for 2009 and 2010 are presented in the attached Appendix 3.
All tester strain cultures should be in the range of 0.9 to 9 x 10E09 bacteria per ml.
Diagnostic mutagens (positive control chemicals) must be included to demonstrate both the intrinsic sensitivity of the tester strains to mutagen exposure and the integrity of the S9-mix. All of the positive control chemicals used in the study should induce marked increases in the frequency of revertant colonies, both with or without metabolic activation. The historical ranges of the positive controls for 2009 and 2010 are presented in the attached Appendix 3.
There should be a minimum of four non-toxic test item dose levels.
There should be no evidence of excessive contamination.

- Additional information on results:
- Prior to use, the master strains were checked for characteristics, viability and spontaneous reversion rate (all were found to be satisfactory). The amino acid supplemented top agar and S9-mix used in both experiments was shown to be sterile.
The culture density for each bacterial strain was also checked and considered acceptable. These data are not given in the report.
Results for the negative controls (spontaneous mutation rates) are presented in the attached Table 1 and were considered to be acceptable. These data are for concurrent untreated control plates performed on the same day as the Mutation Test.
The individual plate counts, the mean number of revertant colonies and the standard deviations, for the test item, reference item and vehicle controls, both with and without metabolic activation, are presented in the attached Table 2 and Table 3 for Experiment 1 and Table 4 and Table 5 for Experiment 2.
A history profile of vehicle/untreated and positive control values (reference items) for 2009 and 2010 are presented in the attached Appendix 3.
The test item caused no visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawn at any dose level and was, therefore, tested up to the maximum recommended dose level of 5000 µg/plate. A light, opaque oily test item film was observed under an inverted microscope at 5000 µg/plate, this observation did not prevent the scoring of revertant colonies.
No significant increases in the frequency of revertant colonies were recorded for any of the strains of bacteria, at any dose level either with or without metabolic activation or exposure method.
All of the positive control chemicals used in the test induced marked increases in the frequency of revertant colonies thus confirming the activity of the S9-mix and the sensitivity of the bacterial strains. - Remarks on result:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative Negative with and without metabolic activation.
The test substance was assessed for genetic toxicity according to OECD Guideline 471 and was determined to be non-mutagenic under the conditions of this test either with or without metabolic activation. - Executive summary:
Introduction.
The test method was designed to be compatible with the guidelines for bacterial mutagenicity testing published by the major Japanese Regulatory Authorities including METI, MHLW and MAFF, the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals No. 471 " Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test", Method B13/14 of Commission Regulation (EC) number 440/2008 of 30 May 2008 and the USA, EPA OCSPP Guideline 870.5100.
Methods.
Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA98, TA 100 and Escherichia coli strain WP2uvrA were treated with suspensions of the test item, Monosodium cyanurate monohydrate, using both the Ames plate incorporation and pre-incubation methods at five dose levels, in triplicate, both with and without the addition of a rat liver homogenate metabolising system (10% liver S9 in standard co-factors). The dose range was determined in a preliminary toxicity assay and was 50 to 5000 µg/ plate in the first experiment. The experiment was repeated on a separate day (pre-incubation method) using the same dose range as Experiment 1, fresh cultures of the bacterial strains and fresh test item formulations.
Results.
The vehicle (sterile distilled water) control plates gave counts of revertant colonies within the normal range. All of the positive control reference items used in the test induced marked increases in the frequency of revertant colonies, both with or without metabolic activation. Thus, the sensitivity of the assay and the efficacy of the S9-mix were validated. The test item caused no visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawn at any dose level and was, therefore, tested up to the maximum recommended dose level of 5000 µg/plate. A light, opaque but oily test item film was observed under an inverted microscope at 5000 µg/plate, this observation did not prevent the scoring of revertant colonies. No significant increases in the frequency of revertant colonies were recorded for any of the bacterial strains, with any dose of the test item, either with or without metabolic activation or exposure method.
Conclusion.
The test item, Monosodium cyanurate monohydrate, was determined to be non-mutagenic under the conditions of this test.
