Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Two valid experiments were perfomed.
First Experiment:
Five concentrations of the test item, dissolved in DMSO were used: Five genetically manipulated strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA 97a, TA 98, TA100, TA102 and TA 1535) were exposed to the test item both in the presence and in the absence of a metabolic activation system (S9) 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 didn't show any mutagenic effects in the first experiment.
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 spontanous revertants of the negative controls were in the normal range. All positive controls showed mutangenic effects with and withour 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 4981 to 312 µg/plate) and a modification in study performance (pre-incubation method).
The test item didn't show mutagenic effects in the second experiment, either.
No signs of toxicity towards the bacteria could be observed.
The sterility control and the determination of the titre didn't show any inconsistncies. 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 didn't show mutagenic effects towards Salmonella typhimurium, strains TA 97a, TA 98, TA 100, TA 102 and TA 1535
Terefore, no concentration-effect relationship could be determined.
The test item Dicyclohexylammonium Isostearat (Isostaric acid, compund with Dicyclohexylamine) is considered as "not mutagenic under the conditions of the test".
