- Positive controls:

- Positive control substance:

- Remarks:
- Positive control solutions were prepared immediately before the treatment of the cells and filtered sterile using a 0.22 μm syringe filter before use.
- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: in medium.
Cells were treated with test material solutions, negative (solvent) or positive control solution (treatment volume: 100 μL/dish in all cases) for the given period of time at 37°C in the absence or presence of S9-mix. After the exposure period, the cultures were washed with Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium (supplemented with 2 mM L-glutamine and 1 v/v% Antibiotic-antimycotic solution). Then, 10 mL of fresh culture medium were added into the dishes and cells were incubated further until the scheduled harvesting time.
DURATION
- Exposure duration:
> Assay 1: 3 hours with and without S9-mix.
> Assay 2: 20 hours without S9-mix and 3 hours with S9-mix.
- Expression time:
> Assay 1: Cells were harvested 20 hours after the beginning of treatment (approximately 1.5 normal cell cycles).
> Assay 2: Cells were harvested 28 hours after the beginning of treatment (approximately 2 normal cell cycles).
SPINDLE INHIBITOR: Colchicine (0.2 μg/mL) was added to cultures 2 to 2.5 hours prior to harvesting.
The cells were swollen with 0.075 M KCl hypotonic solution, then were washed in fixative (Methanol:Acetic acid 3:1 (v:v) mixture) until the preparation became plasma free (4 washes). Then, a suspension of the fixed cells was dropped onto clean microscope slides and air-dried.
STAIN: The slides were stained with 5 % Giemsa solution, air-dried and coverslips were mounted.
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Two replications were performed.
NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: At least one hundred metaphases with 22 ± 2 chromosomes (dicentric chromosomes were counted as two chromosomes) from each culture were examined for the presence or absence of chromosomal aberrations (approximately 1000x magnification), where possible. Examination of slides from a culture was halted when 15 or more metaphases with aberrations (excluding gaps) had been recorded for that culture. Chromatid and chromosome type aberrations (gaps, deletions and exchanges) were recorded separately.
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: For concurrent measurement of cytotoxicity an extra dish was plated for each sample and treated in the same manner. At the scheduled harvesting time, the number of surviving cells was determined using a haemocytometer. Results are expressed compared to the negative (solvent) control as % relative survival.
OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
The occurrence of polyploid and endoreduplicated metaphases was recorded in the main tests. - Evaluation criteria:
- The assay is considered valid, if the following criteria are met:
- The solvent control data are within the laboratory’s normal range for the spontaneous aberration frequency.
- The positive controls induce increases in the aberration frequency, which are significant.
A test material is considered to have shown clastogenic activity in this study if all of the following criteria are met:
- Increases in the frequency of metaphases with aberrant chromosomes are observed at one or more test concentrations (only data without gaps will be considered).
- The increases are reproducible between replicate cultures and between tests (when treatment conditions were the same).
- The increases are statistically significant.
- The increases are not associated with large changes in pH or osmolarity of the treated cultures.
The historical control data for this laboratory were also considered in the evaluation. Evidence of a dose-response relationship (if any) was considered to support the conclusion.
A test material is concluded to have given a negative response if no reproducible, statistically significant increases are observed. - Statistics:
- For statistical analysis, Fisher’s exact test was used. The parameter evaluated for statistical analysis was the number of cells with one or more chromosomal aberrations excluding gaps.

- Additional information on results:
- TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Effects of pH: No large changes in the pH were observed.
- Effects of osmolality: A slightly higher than usual difference was observed in osmolality was observed at the highest concentration (5000 μg/mL) in both experiments of Assays 1 and 2.
- Water solubility: No insolubility was detected at the end of the treatment period in the final treatment medium for either Assay 1 or 2.
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: A total of eight test concentrations between 5000 and 2.29 μg/mL were used to evaluate toxicity in the presence and absence of metabolic activation in each cytotoxicity assay.
Cells survival relative to the negative solvent control ranged from (exposure time/harvest time):
> Assay A: 88 - 114% (3/20 without S9-mix) and 84 – 123 % (3/20 with S9-mix).
> Assay B: 77 - 127% (20/28 without S9-mix) and 88 – 116 % (3/28 with S9-mix).
All observations were normal throughout the study, pH measured 7.4 in all samples and osmolarity ranged from 321 to 402 mmol/kg.
COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA: The negative (solvent) control data were within the laboratory’s normal range for the spontaneous aberration frequency, the positive control substances caused a statistically significant increase in the number of structural aberrations excluding gaps in the experiments with or without metabolic activation demonstrating the sensitivity of the test system.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY: No cytotoxicity was observed in both experiment in Assays 1 and 2.
CHROMOSOME ADERRATION EVALUATION
Concentrations of 5000, 2500 and 1250 μg/mL (a total of three) were chosen for evaluation in both cases in Assays 1 and 2. Based on the observed results, an additional concentration (625 μg/mL) was evaluated in Assay 1 in the experiment with metabolic activation.
None of the treatment concentrations caused a significant increase in the number of cells with structural chromosome aberrations in either assay without metabolic activation or in Assay 2 with metabolic activation. Following the initial analysis of three concentrations, a significant increase in chromosome aberrations at 1250 μg/mL in Assay 1 with metabolic activation was observed. No increase was found at two higher concentrations (2500 and 5000 μg/mL). A further concentration, 625 μg/mL, was then analysed and no increase in aberrations was observed. Therefore the increase was not repeatable either at other concentrations within the assay or between assays.
POLYPLOID AND ENDOREDUPLICATED METAPHASES
The occurrence of polyploid and endoreduplicated metaphases was recorded in the main tests. Polyploid metaphases (1-3) were found in some cases in the negative (solvent) control or test material treated samples in the performed experiments. No endoreduplicated metaphases were found in the main tests. - Remarks on result:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the test material did not induce reproducible, statistically significant increases in chromosome aberrations in either assay, with or without metabolic activation. Therefore, the test material is considered not clastogenic in this test system.
- Executive summary:
The clastogenic potential of the test material was determined in an in vitro mammalian cell chromosome aberration assay performed under GLP conditions and in line with the standardised guideline OECD 473, EU Method B.10 and EPA OPPTS 870.5375.
Cultures of Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79) cells were exposed to the test material at concentrations of 5000, 2500, 1250, 625 and 312.5 μg/mL, in two assays, with and without metabolic activation. Assay 1 was performed with two experiments both with a three hour exposure period and 20 hours harvesting time. Both experiments were performed in the presence or absence of a metabolic activation system, which was a cofactor-supplemented post-mitochondrial S9 fraction prepared from the livers of phenobarbital/β-naphthoflavone induced rats. Assay 2 was performed either in the presence of S9-mix with a three hour exposure period, or in the absence of S9-mix with a 20 hour exposure period. Both experiments were conducted with a harvesting time of 28 hours.
Treatment with the test material did not result in a statistically and biologically significant, repeatable, dose-dependent increase in the frequency of the cells with structural chromosome aberrations either in the presence or absence of a metabolic activation system. Additionally there was no indication of polyploidy or endoreplication.
The test material is therefore considered not to be clastogenic in this test system.
