Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: see 'Remark'
Remarks:
Well conducted study according to GLP, however, study was carried ou according to the previous version of the guideline. 4 strains were used, but not one of the strains having AT base pairs at the primary reversion site (such as TA 102 or E. coli WP2).
