Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- no guideline followed
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Guideline followed was not stated. The detect mutations at the HFPRT locus, the CHO cells are subjected to a three-step procedure: exposure to the test sample, culturing for an appropriate phenotypic expression period after treatment and then growth in a selection medium containing the purine analogue 6-thioguanine. The wild type cells convert the purine analogue to toxic metabolites and are killed, while thioguanine and hence escape its lethal effect. The HGRPT mutants are quantitated by clonal growth in the selection medium.

OTHER: - Evaluation criteria:
- Cytotoxity was evaluated by the number of colonies present following 6-8days growth from cultures exposed to the substance for five hours in the presence of S-9 and for 16-18 hours in the absence of S-9. Survival frequency was determined by comparison to solvent controls. The number of mutant cells was determined by TG colonies after growth in selective media containing 6-thioguanine. The mutationfrequenvy was calculated by' dividing the total number of mutant colonies per duplicate culture by the total number of cells seeded per culture, corrected for the cloning efficiency and was expressed as mutants per 1000000 cloned cells.

- Additional information on results:
- The test article was initially tested in a range-finding assay to select concentrations for the mutagenesis assay. Cells were exposed to concentrations ranging from 0.13 to400 µg/ml in half-logs in the nonactivated rang-finding assay. No toxicity, the highest concentration tested in the mutagenesis assay, 400 µg/ml, was based on the limited solubility of the test article in DMSO and the lack of solubility in the culture medium.
The results of the parallel cytotoxicity assays which accompanied the mutagenesis assay were similar to the result in the rang-finding assay. The test article was non-toxic at all concentrations.
In Experiment 1, the range mutation frequencies were not calculated due to the variation in the cloning efficiency at the time of selection. Due to a systematic technical error (presumably in dilution), several of the groups had cloning efficiencies which were greater than 100% (negative control and 25µg/ml). The remainder of the groups (positive control and 50µg/ml to 400µg/ml) had cloning efficiencies in the expected range, from 42% to 91%.
In order to analyze the mutation results, the number of total mutant colonies was compared for each group. The average number of mutants per 1000000 total cells was 19.5 for the negative control, and the range was 7 to 28. The average number of mutants for each test article concentration was similar to the negative control. There were 11.5, 14, 22, 14 and 23 mutants per 1000000 total cells at concentrations of 25 to 40 400µg/ml, respectively. Thus, the test article did not induce an increase in the total number of mutant colonies.
In Experiment 2, the cloning efficiencies at the time of selection were in the expected range and were used to calculate the mutation frequency. The average negative control mutation frequency was 13.6 ×10-6 and the range was 0.0 to 26.5×10-6. There of the average mutation frequencies from cells exposed to the test article were higher than the average negative control value. These were 27.2, 43.6, and 47.8×10-6 at 25 µg/ml, 50 µg/ml, and 400 µg/ml, respectively.
These values, however, are not an indication of mutagenesis for two reasons. First, there is no concentration-dependent increase; the mutation frequencies at 100 µg/ml and 200 µg/ml are equel to or lower than the negative control mutation frequency. Second, most of the individual mutation frequencies are within the range established by the negative control, 0 to 26.5×10-6. Only two values, 59.3 and 47.8 ×10-6 are outside this range, and these two higher frequency. Therefor, there is no convincing evidence that the test article induced mutations in Experiment 2. - Remarks on result:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative
The test article was tested for its ability to induce mutations in CHO at the HGPRT locus in the presence and absence of S9. The test article was non- mutagenic in this study. - Executive summary:
CHO cells were exposed to the substance for five hours in the presence of S-9 and for 16-18 hours in the absence of S-9 at concentrations of 0.13-400μg/ml to evaluate its mutagenic potential as evidenced by its ability to induce forward mutations at the HGPRT locus. A slight reduction in cell survival occurred in the presence of S-9 at a concentration of 400μg/ml of the substance in the activated cytotoxicity assay. The test article was non-mutagenic in both the activated and non-activated mutation assay systems.
