The mutagenic potential of Acetamid was determined with the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test following OECD 471 and EU B.13/14. The test item did not show mutagenic effects in both experiments. The number of revertant colonies was not increased in comparison with the spontaneous revertants (solvent only).
Cytotoxicity of the test item was not detected. The bacterial background lawn was visible and the number of revertants was not significantly decreased.
Therefore it can be stated, that under the test conditions, the test item Acetamid is not mu-tagenic in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test using Salmonella typhimurium, strains TA97a, TA98, TA100, TA102 and TA1535. - Executive summary:
The mutagenic potential of Acetamid was determined with the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test following OECD 471 and EU B.13/14. Two valid experiments were performed.
First Experiment:
Five concentrations of the test item, dissolved in demineralized water (ranging from 50 to 5000 µg/plate) were used. Five genetically changed strains ofSalmonella typhimurium(TA97a, TA98, TA100, TA102 (genetically manipulated) and TA1535) were exposed to the test item both in the presence and in the absence of a metabolic activation system (S9-mix, rat liver S9 induced by Aroclor 1254) for 48 hours, using the plate incorporation method.
None of the concentrations caused a significant increase in the number of revertant colonies in the tested strains. The test item did not show any mutagenic effects in the first experiment.
The test item showed no precipitates on the plates in all tested concentrations.
No signs of toxicity towards the bacteria could be observed.
The sterility control and the determination of the titre did not show any inconsistencies. The determined values for the spontaneous revertants of the negative controls were in the normal range. All positive controls showed mutagenic effects with and without metabolic activation.
Second Experiment:
To verify the results of the first experiment, a second experiment was performed, using five concentrations of the test item (ranging from 313 to 5000 µg/plate) and a modification in study performance (pre-incubation method).
The test item did not show mutagenic effects in the second experiment, either.
The test item showed no precipitates on the plates in all tested concentrations.
No signs of toxicity towards the bacteria could be observed.
The sterility control and the determination of the titre didn’t show any inconsistencies. The determined values for the spontaneous revertants of the negative controls were in the normal range. All positive controls showed mutagenic effects with and without metabolic activation.
Under the conditions of the test, the test item did not show mutagenic effects towardsSalmonella typhimurium,strainsTA97a, TA98, TA100, TA102 and TA1535.
Therefore, no concentration-effect relationship could be determined.
The test itemAcetamidis considered as “not mutagenic under the conditions of the test”.

Additional information
The mutagenic potential of Acetamid was determined with the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test following OECD 471 and EU B.13/14. The test item did not show mutagenic effects in both experiments. The number of revertant colonies was not increased in comparison with the spontaneous revertants (solvent only). Cytotoxicity of the test item was not detected. The bacterial background lawn was visible and the number of revertants was not significantly decreased. Therefore it can be stated, that under the test conditions, the test item Acetamid is not mu-tagenic in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test using Salmonella typhimurium, strains TA97a, TA98, TA100, TA102 and TA1535.
Justification for selection of genetic toxicity endpoint
Data obtained from a GLP compliant study according to OECD Guideline 471.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available in-vitro data, no classification is needed.
