- Pre-Experiment for Toxicity
Ta evaluate the toxicity of the lest item a pre-experiment was performed with strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100, and WP2 uvrA. Eight concentrations were tested for toxicity and mutation induction with three plates each. The experimental conditions in this pre-experiment were the same as described below for the experiment I (plate incorporation test).
Toxicity of the test item results in a reduction in the number of spontaneous revertants or a clearing of the bacterial background lawn.
The pre-experiment is reported as main experiment I, since the following criteria are met: Evaluable plates (>0 colonies) at five concentrations or more in all strains used.
Dose Selection
In the pre-experiment the concentration range of the test item was 3 - 5000 µg/plate. The pre-experiment is reported as experiment I since no relevant toxic effects were observed and 5000 µg/plate were chosen as maximal concentration.
The concentration range included two logarithmic decades. The following concentrations were tested:
Experiment I: 3; 10; 33; 100; 333; 1000; 2500; and 5000 µg/plate
Experiment II: 33; 100; 333; 1000; 2500; and 5000 µg/plate
Experimental Performance
For each strain and dose level including the controls, three plates were used.
The following materials were mixed in a test tube and poured onto the minimal agar plates:
100 µI Test solution at each dose level, solvent (negative control) or reference mutagen solution (positive control),
500 µI S9 mix (for lest with metabolic activation) or S9 mix substitution buffer (for lest without metabolic activation),
100 µI Bacteria suspension (cf. lest system, pre-culture of the strains),
2000µl Overlay agar
In the pre-incubation assay 100 µI test solution, 500 µI S9 mix / S9 mix substitution buffer and 100 µI bacterial suspension were mixed in a test tube and shaken at 37° C for 60 minutes. After pre-incubation 2.0 ml overlay agar (45° C) was added to each tube. The mixture was poured on minimal agar plates.
After solidification the plates were incubated upside down for at least 48 hours at 37° C in the dark.
Data Recording
The colonies were counted using the Petri Viewer Mk2 (Perceptive Instruments Ltd, Suffolk CB 7BN, UK) with the software program Ames Study Manager. The counter was connected to an IBM AT compatible PC
Acceptability of the Assay
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 historical data
- the positive control substances should produce a significant increase in mutant colony frequencies - Rationale for test conditions:
- In the pre-experiment the concentration range of the test item was 3 - 5000 µg/plate. The pre-experiment is reported as experiment I since no relevant toxic effects were observed and 5000 µg/plate were chosen as maximal concentration.
- Evaluation criteria:
- A test item is considered positive if a dose related increase in the number of revertants exceeding the threshold of twice or thrice the colony count of the corresponding solvent control is observed at more than one concentration. Furthermore, a biologically relevant and reproducible increase exceeding the threshold at one lest concentration is considered as positive.
A lest item producing neither a dose related increase in the number of revertants nor a biologically relevant positive response at any one of the lest points is considered non mutagenic in this system.
A biologically relevant response is described as follows:
An increase is considered relevant if the number of reversions is at least twice the spontaneous reversion rate in strains TA 98, TA 100, and WP2 uvrA or thrice in strains TA 1535 and TA 1537 (3, 4).
Also, a dose-dependent and reproducible increase in the number of revertants is regarded as an indication of possibly existing mutagenic potential of the test item regardless whether the highest dose induced the above described enhancement factors or not. - Statistics:
- A statistical analysis of the data is not mandatory.

- No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with Sandoplast Violet RSB 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.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Negative (test item did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshift in the genome of the strains used).
- Executive summary:
The test item Sandoplast Violet RSB was assessed for its potential to induce gene mutations in the plate incorporation test (experiment I) and the pre-incubation test (experiment II) using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, and TA 100, and the Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA.
The assay was performed in two independent experiments both with and without liver microsomal activation. Each concentration and the controls were 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 S9 mix in both experiments.
No toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants, occurred in the test groups with and without metabolic activation.
No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with Sandoplast Violet RSB 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. They showed a distinct in- crease of induced revertant colonies.
In conclusion, it can be stated that during the described mutagenicity test and under the experimental conditions reported, the test item did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the strains used.
