- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: Preincubation in suspension, followed by plating on agar plates (treat and plate method)
- Cell density at seeding (if applicable): Overnight culture of approximately 1x 10^9 cells/mL
DURATION
- Exposure duration, pre-incubation: The incubation mixtures were incubated with shaking at 37 ± 1 °C for 3 hours (treat and plate).
- Incubation time (selective incubation): about 72 hours
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Viable cell count and observation of the bacterial background lawn. 0.1 ml aliquots of a 10^6 dilution of each bacterial suspension were poured on to minimal glucose agar plates in duplicates. The plates were inverted and incubated at 37 ± 2°c for about 72 hours and scored. - Evaluation criteria:
- If exposure to a test substance produces a reproducible increase in revertant colony numbers of at least twice (three times in the case of strains TA1535 and TA1537) that of the concurrent vehicle controls, with some evidence of a positive concentration-response relationship, it is considered to exhibit mutagenic activity in this test system.
- Statistics:
- Not performed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- It was concluded that pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366 showed no evidence of mutagenic activity in this bacterial system tested up to a concentration equivalent to 5000 μg/plate in the presence and absence of S9.
- Executive summary:
In this in vitro assessment of the mutagenic potential of pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366, histidine-dependent auxotrophic mutants of Salmonella typhimurium, strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100, and a tryptophan-dependent mutant of Escherichia coli, strain WP2 uvrA (pKM101), were exposed to pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366 diluted in water. Water was also used as a vehicle control.
Two independent mutation tests were performed in the presence and absence of liver preparations (S9 mix) from rats treated with phenobarbital and 5,6-benzoflavone. Both tests included a washing stage for removal of the test substance and any released amino-acids from the treated bacterial cultures, in order to avoid a misleading response caused by growth of pseudorevertant colonies (which may be auxotrophic bacteria, or may be a mixture of prototrophs and auxotrophs) and overgrowth of background lawns.
Pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366 was tested up to a concentration equivalent to 5000 μg/plate (the concentration that would have been applied to the test plate if the original treated culture had been plated without being washed). This is the standard limit concentration recommended in the regulatory guidelines that this assay follows. Other concentrations used were a series of ca half-log10 dilutions of the highest concentration.
No signs of toxicity towards the tester strains were observed in either mutation test following exposure to pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366. No evidence of mutagenic activity was seen at any concentration of pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366 in either mutation test.
The concurrent positive controls verified the sensitivity of the assay and the metabolising activity of the liver preparations. The mean revertant colony counts for the vehicle controls were within or close to the current historical control range for the laboratory.
It was concluded that pectin lyase, batch PPJ34366 showed no evidence of mutagenic activity in this bacterial system under the test conditions employed.
