Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative without metabolic activation
negative with metabolic activation

The test substance was not mutagenic in the presence and absence of a metabolizing system in this Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test
Executive summary:

The test substance was tested for mutagenicity with the tester strains TA 100, TA1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 1538 of Salmonella typhimurium and WP2 uvrA of Echerichia coli.

The mutagenicity studies were conducted in the absence and in the presence of a metabolizing system derived from induced rat liver homogenate (S-9 Mix). A dose range of 7 different doses from 4 to 10000 µg/plate was tested.

Toxicity: The tested compound showed toxicity to the bacterial strains except of TA 1537.

Mutagenicity: In the absence and in the presence of the metabolic activation system the test compound did not show a dose dependent increase in the number of revertants in any of the bacterial strains.

It can be stated that the tested sample is not mutagenic in these bacterial test systems without and with exogenous metabolic activation at the dose levels investigated.
