DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: other: reductions of spontaneous revertants or cleaning of background lawn - Evaluation criteria:
- The Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay is considered
acceptable if it meets the following criteria:
- regular background growth in the negative and solvent control
- the spontaneous reversion rates in the negative and solvent control are in the range of our historical data
- the positive control substances should produce a significant increase in mutant colony frequencies
A test item is considered as a mutagen if a biologically relevant increase in the number of revertants exceeding the threshold of twice (strains TA 98, TA 100, and WP2 uvrA) or thrice (strains TA 1535 and TA 1537) the colony count of the corresponding solvent control is observed.
A dose dependent increase is considered biologically relevant if the threshold is exceeded at more than one concentration.
An increase exceeding the threshold at only one concentration is judged as biologically relevant if reproduced in an independent second experiment.
A dose dependent increase in the number of revertant colonies below the threshold is regarded as an indication of a mutagenic potential if reproduced in an independent second experiment. However, whenever the colony counts remain within the historical range of negative and solvent controls such an increase is not considered biologically relevant. - Statistics:

Under the conditions of this study the test item was not mutagenic to bacteria. - Executive summary:
This study was performed to investigate the potential of the test item to induce gene mutations according to the plate incorporation assay with rat liver S9(experiment I) and the pre-incubation test with hamster liver S9 (experiment II) using the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100, and the Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA.
The assay was performed in two independent experiments with and without liver microsomal activation. Each concentration, including the controls, was tested in triplicate. The test item was tested at the following concentrations: Pre-Experiment/Experiment I and II: 3; 10; 33; 100; 333; 1000; 2500; and 5000 µg/plate.
The plates incubated with the test item showed normal background growth up to 5000 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation in both experiments.
No toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants, were observed with and without metabolic activation in all strains in experiment II. A minor reduction in the number of revertants, was observed only in experiment I in strains TA 1535, TA 1537 and TA 98 in the absence of metabolic and in strains TA 1537 and TA 98 in the presence of metabolic activation at higher concentrations. No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with the test item at any dose level, neither in the presence nor absence of metabolic activation (S9 mix). There was also no tendency of higher mutation rates with increasing concentrations in the range below the generally acknowledged border of biological relevance.
Appropriate reference mutagens were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase of induced revertant colonies.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: mitotic index - Evaluation criteria:
- Evaluation of the cultures was performed (according to standard protocol of the "Arbeitsgruppe der Industrie, Cytogenetik") using NIKON microscopes with 100x oil immersion objectives. Breaks, fragments, deletions, exchanges, and chromosome disintegrations were recorded as structural chromosome aberrations. Gaps were recorded as well but not included in the calculation of the aberration rates. 100 well spread metaphases per culture were scored for cytogenetic damage on coded slides.
Only metaphases with characteristic chromosome numbers of 46 ± 1 were included in the analysis. To describe a cytotoxic effect the mitotic index (% cells in mitosis) was determined. - Statistics:

- Additional information on results:
- The test item, suspended in deionised water, was assessed for its potential to induce chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes in vitro in the absence and presence of metabolic activation by S9 mix.
Three independent experiments were performed. In Experiment IA the exposure period was 4 hours with S9 mix. In Experiment IB the exposure period was 4 hours without S9 mix. In Experiment II the exposure period was 4 hours with S9 mix and 22 hours without S9 mix. The chromosomes were prepared 22 hours after the start of treatment with the test item.
In each experimental group two parallel cultures were analysed. 100 metaphases per culture were scored for structural chromosomal aberrations. 1000 cells were counted per culture for determination of the mitotic index.
The highest treatment concentration in this study, 5360.0 µg/mL was chosen with regard to the C.I. content (93.3 %) of the test item and with respect to the OECD Guideline for in vitro mammalian cytogenetic tests.
In Experiment IA, visible precipitation of the test item in the culture medium was observed at 34.8 µg/mL and above in the presence of S9 mix. In Experiment IB, precipitation was observed at 18.3 µg/mL and above in the absence of S9 mix. In Experiment II, precipitation occurred at 20.9 µg/mL in the absence of S9 mix and at 41.9 µg/mL in the presence of S9 mix. No relevant influence on osmolarity or pH value was observed.
No relevant cytotoxicity, indicated by reduced mitotic indices could be observed up to the highest applied concentration.
In the absence and presence of S9 mix, no biologically relevant increase in the number of cells carrying structural chromosome aberrations was observed. The aberration rates of the cells after treatment with the test item (0.0 -2.0 % aberrant cells, excluding gaps) were within the range of the solvent control values (0.0 -2.5 % aberrant cells, excluding gaps) and within the range of the laboratory historical solvent control data.
No evidence of an increase in polyploid metaphases was noticed after treatment with the test item as compared to the control cultures.
In both experiments, either EMS (770.0 or 660.0 µg/mL) or CPA (7.5 or 15.0 µg/mL) were used as positive controls and showed distinct increases in cells with structural chromosome aberrations. - Remarks on result:

negative
In conclusion, it can be stated that under the experimental conditions reported, the test item did not induce structural chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes in vitro.
Therefore, the test item is considered to be non-clastogenic in this chromosome aberration test, when tested up to precipitating concentrations. - Executive summary:

In each experimental group two parallel cultures were analysed. Per culture 100 metaphases were evaluated for structural chromosomal aberrations.
The highest applied concentration in this study was 5360.0 µg/mL.
Dose selection of the cytogenetic experiment was performed considering the toxicity data and the occurrence of test item precipitation in accordance with OECD Guideline 473.
In both experiments in the absence and presence of S9 mix, no cytotoxicity was observed up to the highest evaluable concentration. Evaluation was limited by severe test item precipitation on the slides.
In both independent experiments, neither a statistically significant nor a biologically relevant increase in the number of cells carrying structural chromosomal aberrations was observed after treatment with the test item.
No evidence of an increase in polyploid metaphases was noticed after treatment with the test item as compared to the control cultures.
Appropriate mutagens were used as positive controls. They induced statistically significant increases in cells with structural chromosome aberrations.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: cloning efficiency
PRE-TEST:
A pre-test was performed in order to determine the concentration range for the mutagenicity experiments. The general culture conditions and experimental conditions in this pre-test were the same as described for the mutagenicity experiment below. In this pre-test the colony forming ability of approximately 500 single cells (duplicate cultures per concentration level) after treatment with the test item was observed and compared to the controls. Toxicity of the test item is indicated by a reduction of the cloning efficiency (CE). - Evaluation criteria:
- A test item is classified as positive if it induces either a concentration-related increase of the mutant frequency or a reproducible and positive response at one of the test points.
A test item producing neither a concentration-related increase of the mutant frequency nor a reproducible positive response at any of the test points is considered non-mutagenic in this system.
A positive response is described as follows:
A test item is classified as mutagenic if it reproducibly induces a mutation frequency that is three times above the spontaneous mutation frequency at least at one of the concentrations in the experiment.
The test item is classified as mutagenic if there is a reproducible concentration-related increase of the mutation frequency. Such evaluation may be considered also in the case that a threefold increase of the mutant frequency is not observed.
However, in a case by case evaluation this decision depends on the level of the corresponding negative control data. If there is by chance a low spontaneous mutation rate in the range normally found (0.5 - 31.8 mutants per 10exp6 cells) a concentration-related increase of the mutations within this range has to be discussed. The variability of the mutation rates of negative and solvent controls within all experiments of this study was also taken into consideration. - Statistics:
- Distribution of mutant cells does not follow statistical methods, so an adequate statistical method is not available.

- Precipitation: observed at 125 µg/mL and above
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
There was no indication of cytotoxic effects. Precipitation of the test item was observed at 125 µg/mL and above.
COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA:
All test samples remained well in the range of historical solvent controls.
No relevant and reproducible increase of the mutation frequency was observed in the main experiments up to the maximum concentration. All mutation frequencies remained well within the historical data range of negative and solvent controls.
In experiment 1 the mutation frequency exceeded the threshold of three times the mutation frequency of the corresponding solvent control at 62.5 µg/mL in culture II. However, the total number of mutant colonies/10exp6 cells remained well within the range of our historical solvent control data. Furthermore, this increase was not reproduced in the parallel culture under identical conditions nor in both cultures at any other, even higher, concentration. Therefore, this isolated increase was judged as biologically irrelevant fluctuation.
In both experiments of this study (with and without S9 mix) the range of the negative and solvent controls was from 4.3 up to 15.7 mutants per 10exp6 cells; the range of the groups treated with the test item was from 4.4 up to 23.6 mutants per 10exp6 cells.
EMS (0.3 mg/mL in experiment I, 0.15 mg/mL in experiment II) and DMBA (2.0 µg/mL) were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase in induced mutant colonies. - Remarks on result:

- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative
Under the conditions of this study the test item was not mutagenic in mammalian cells in vitro. - Executive summary:
The study was performed according to guideline OECD 476 to investigate the potential of the test item to induce gene mutations at the HPRT locus in V79 cells of the Chinese hamster. The assay was performed in two independent experiments. The cells were exposed to the test item for 4 hours in the first experiment with and without metabolic activation. The second experiment was solely performed in the absence of metabolic activation with a treatment period of 24 h. The tested concentrations were 0, 15.6, 31.3, 62.5, 125, 250 and 1000 µg/mL. The highest applied concentration (1000 µg/mL) was limited by the solubility properties of the test item.
No substantial and reproducible dose dependent increase of the mutation frequency was observed in both main experiments.
Appropriate reference mutagens were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase in induced mutant colonies and thus showed the sensitivity of the test item and the activity of the S9 mix.

Based on the results of this study it is concluded that the test item is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay. - Executive summary:
A bacterial reverse mutation assay according to OECD TG 471 with Prival modification was performed in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and Escherichia coli WP2uvrA. The preicincubation test was performed in two independent experiments in the presence and absence of S9 -mix (uninduced male golden Syrian hamster liver S9 -mix). Test concentrations were 0, 3, 10, 33, 100 and 333 µg/plate based on a dose range finding test (tested up to concentrations of 5000 µg/plate) which revealed that the test item precipitated on the plates at concentrations of 333 µg/plate and above. The test item did not induce an increase in the number of revertants in any strain indicating that the test item is not mutagenic under the conditions of this test.
Appropriate reference mutagens were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase of induced revertant colonies

Under the conditions of this study the test item was not mutagenic in bacteria. - Executive summary:
A plate incorporation assay with rat liver S9 (experiment I) and the pre-incubation test with hamster liver S9 (experiment II) using the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and the Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA was performed in two independent experiments with and without liver microsomal activation. Each concentration, including the controls, was tested in triplicate. The test item was tested at the following concentrations:
Pre-Experiment/Experiment I: 3; 10; 33; 100; 333; 1000; 2500; and 5000 µg/plate.
Experiment II: 33; 100; 333; 1000; 2500; and 5000 µg/plate
The plates incubated with the test item showed normal background growth up to 5000 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation in both independent experiments. Slight toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants (below the indication factor of 0.5), were observed in strain TA 1535 at 5000 µg/plate without S9 mix and in strain TA 1537 at 1000 and 5000 µg/plate with S9 mix in experiment I. In experiment II, slight toxic effects were observed at 5000 µg/plate with S9 mix in strains TA 1535 and TA 1537. No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with the test item at any dose level, neither in the presence nor absence of metabolic activation (S9 mix). There was also no tendency of higher mutation rates with increasing concentrations in the range below the generally acknowledged border of biological relevance. Appropriate reference mutagens were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase of induced revertant colonies.

- Additional information on results:
- The test item, suspended in deionised water, was assessed for its potential to induce chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes in vitro in the absence and presence of metabolic activation by S9 mix.
Three independent experiments were performed. In Experiment IA the exposure period was 4 hours with S9 mix. In Experiment IB the exposure period was 4 hours without S9 mix. In Experiment II the exposure period was 4 hours with S9 mix and 22 hours without S9 mix. The chromosomes were prepared 22 hours after the start of treatment with the test item.
In each experimental group two parallel cultures were analysed. 100 metaphases per culture were scored for structural chromosomal aberrations. 1000 cells were counted per culture for determination of the mitotic index.
The highest treatment concentration in this study, 5360.0 µg/mL was chosen with regard to the C.I. content (93.3 %) of the test item and with respect to the OECD Guideline for in vitro mammalian cytogenetic tests.
In Experiment IA, visible precipitation of the test item in the culture medium was observed at 34.8 µg/mL and above in the presence of S9 mix. In Experiment IB, precipitation was observed at 18.3 µg/mL and above in the absence of S9 mix. In Experiment II, precipitation occurred at 20.9 µg/mL in the absence of S9 mix and at 41.9 µg/mL in the presence of S9 mix. No relevant influence on osmolarity or pH value was observed.
No relevant cytotoxicity, indicated by reduced mitotic indices could be observed up to the highest applied concentration.
In the absence and presence of S9 mix, no biologically relevant increase in the number of cells carrying structural chromosome aberrations was observed. The aberration rates of the cells after treatment with the test item (0.0 -2.0 % aberrant cells, excluding gaps) were within the range of the solvent control values (0.0 -2.5 % aberrant cells, excluding gaps) and within the range of the laboratory historical solvent control data.
No evidence of an increase in polyploid metaphases was noticed after treatment with the test item as compared to the control cultures.
In both experiments, either EMS (770.0 or 660.0 µg/mL) or CPA (7.5 or 15.0 µg/mL) were used as positive controls and showed distinct increases in cells with structural chromosome aberrations. - Remarks on result:
- other: strain/cell type: human lymphocytes
- Remarks:
- Migrated from field 'Test system'.
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative
In conclusion, it can be stated that under the experimental conditions reported, the test item did not induce structural chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes in vitro.
Therefore, the test item is considered to be non-clastogenic in this chromosome aberration test, when tested up to precipitating concentrations. - Executive summary:
The test item, suspended in deionised water, was assessed for its potential to induce structural chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes in vitro in three independent experiments. The following study design was performed:

The highest applied concentration in this study was 5360.0 µg/mL.
Dose selection of the cytogenetic experiment was performed considering the toxicity data and the occurrence of test item precipitation in accordance with OECD Guideline 473.
In both experiments in the absence and presence of S9 mix, no cytotoxicity was observed up to the highest evaluable concentration. Evaluation was limited by severe test item precipitation on the slides.
In both independent experiments, neither a statistically significant nor a biologically relevant increase in the number of cells carrying structural chromosomal aberrations was observed after treatment with the test item.
No evidence of an increase in polyploid metaphases was noticed after treatment with the test item as compared to the control cultures.
Appropriate mutagens were used as positive controls. They induced statistically significant increases in cells with structural chromosome aberrations.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
There was no indication of cytotoxic effects. Precipitation of the test item was observed at 125 µg/mL and above.
COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA:
All test samples remained well in the range of historical solvent controls.
No relevant and reproducible increase of the mutation frequency was observed in the main experiments up to the maximum concentration. All mutation frequencies remained well within the historical data range of negative and solvent controls.
In experiment 1 the mutation frequency exceeded the threshold of three times the mutation frequency of the corresponding solvent control at 62.5 µg/mL in culture II. However, the total number of mutant colonies/10exp6 cells remained well within the range of our historical solvent control data. Furthermore, this increase was not reproduced in the parallel culture under identical conditions nor in both cultures at any other, even higher, concentration. Therefore, this isolated increase was judged as biologically irrelevant fluctuation.
In both experiments of this study (with and without S9 mix) the range of the negative and solvent controls was from 4.3 up to 15.7 mutants per 10exp6 cells; the range of the groups treated with the test item was from 4.4 up to 23.6 mutants per 10exp6 cells.
EMS (0.3 mg/mL in experiment I, 0.15 mg/mL in experiment II) and DMBA (2.0 µg/mL) were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase in induced mutant colonies. - Remarks on result:

- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative
Under the conditions of this study the test item was not mutagenic in mammalian cells in vitro. - Executive summary:
The study was performed according to guideline OECD 476 to investigate the potential of the test item to induce gene mutations at the HPRT locus in V79 cells of the Chinese hamster. The assay was performed in two independent experiments. The cells were exposed to the test item for 4 hours in the first experiment with and without metabolic activation. The second experiment was solely performed in the absence of metabolic activation with a treatment period of 24 h. The tested concentrations were 0, 15.6, 31.3, 62.5, 125, 250 and 1000 µg/mL. The highest applied concentration (1000 µg/mL) was limited by the solubility properties of the test item.
No substantial and reproducible dose dependent increase of the mutation frequency was observed in both main experiments.
Appropriate reference mutagens were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase in induced mutant colonies and thus showed the sensitivity of the test item and the activity of the S9 mix.
- Endpoint:
- in vitro cytogenicity / micronucleus study
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- an in vitro cytogenicity study in mammalian cells or in vitro micronucleus study does not need to be conducted because adequate data from an in vivo cytogenicity test are available

Comparison of the mean number of silver grains per nucleus in the negative controls and after treatment with the test substance in the various concentrations (125, 25, 5 and 1 µg/ml) revealed no marked differences. By contrast, the positive control, DMN (100 mM) yielded a marked increase in the mean value of silver grains per nucleus. Here, the mean value was 22.8, whereas the negative controls gave values of 1.70 and 1.82.
Comparison of the mean number of silver grains per nucleus in the negative controls and after treatment with the test substance in the various concentrations (125, 25, 5 and 1 µg/ml) revealed no marked differences. By contrast, the positive control, 4NQG (5 µM) yielded a marked increase in the mean value of silver grains per nucleus. Here, the mean value was 24.5, whereas the negative controls gave values of 1.36 and 1.18.
