DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: cloning efficiency; relative total growth; - Evaluation criteria:
- There are several criteria for determining a positive result:
- clear and dose-related increase in the mutant frequency,
- biologically relevant response (at least a 2-fold increase of mutant frequencies related to the respective negative control values and higher than the historical range of negative controls) for at least one of the dose groups,
- combined with a positive effect in the mutant frequency, an increased occurrence of small colonies (slow growth colonies) indicated by a low large/small colonies ratio (1.5 times the ratio of clastogenic controls MMS and/or B[a]P) is an indication for potential clastogenic effects and/or chromosomal aberrations. - Statistics:
- According to the OECD guidelines, the biological relevance of the results is the criterion for the interpretation of results. A statistical evaluation of
the results is not regarded as necessary.
A test item is considered to be negative if there is no biologically relevant increase in the induction of mutant cells above concurrent control levels, at any dose level. - Species / strain:

- Additional information on results:
- In the main experiment with metabolic activation, the quotient of large/small colonies of the negative controls were found to be 3.11 and
3.38, the quotients of large/small colonies of the solvent controls were found to be 2.62 and 3.59, the quotient of large/small colonies of the
positive control was found to be 1.04. The quotient of the highest dose groups were found to be 2.49 (0.30 µL/mL), 3.28 (0.32 µL/mL) and 1.07(0.34 µl/mL). In the highest concentration an increased number of small colonies was found. Here a quotient of 1.07 was evaluated. Since no
mutagenicity was found in this dose group the finding is considered to be a secondary effect of the attended toxicity (RTG 5.51) and not biologically relevant.
In the main experiment without metabolic activation, the quotient of large/small colonies of the negative controls were found to be 3.27 and
2.50, the quotients of large/small colonies of the solvent controls were found to be 1.98 and 6.06, the quotient of large/small colonies of the
positive control was found to be 0.86. The quotient of the highest dose groups were found to be 2.10 (0.02 µL/mL), 2.69 (0.05µL/mL) and 1.95
(0.10 µL/mL). No clastogenic effects of the test item were indicated.
The positive controls MMS (10 µg/mL) and B[a]P (2.5 µg/mL) induced a significant increase of the mutant frequency and a biologically significant
increase of small colonies, thus proving the ability of the test system to indicate potential clastogenic effects. - Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results:
negative with metabolic activation
negative without metabolic activation
Isooctyl mercaptopropionate is considered to be non-mutagenic in the mouse lymphoma thymidine kinase locus using the cell line L5178Y. - Executive summary:
The test item Isooctyl mercaptopropionate was assessed for its potential to induce mutations at the mouse lymphoma thymidine kinase locus using the cell line L5178Y.
The selection of the concentrations was based on data from the pre-experiment. In the main experiment 0.34 uL/mL (with metabolic
activation) and 0.10 pL/mL (without metabolic activation) were selected as the highest concentrations. The test item was investigated in the main experiment at the following concentrations:
with metabolic activation:
0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.25, 0.28, 0.30, 0.32, 0.34 wL/mL
and without metabolic activation:
0.001, 0.003, 0.005, 0.008, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10 pL/mL
Growth inhibition was observed in the main experiment with and without metabolic activation.
In the main experiment with metabolic activation the relative total growth (RTG) was 5.51% for the highest test item concentration (0.34 pL/mL) evaluated. The highest test item concentration evaluated without metabolic activation was 0.10 wL/mL with a RTG of 41.05%.
In the main experiment with and without metabolic activation no biologically relevant increase of mutants was found after treatment with the test item Isooctyl mercaptopropionate. No dose-response relationship was observed.
In addition, colony sizing did not indicate potential clastogenic effects induced by the test item under the experimental conditions (with and without metabolic activation).In conclusion, in the described mutagenicity test under the experimental conditions reported, the test item Isooctyl mercaptopropionate is
considered to be non-mutagenic in the mouse lymphoma thymidine kinase locus using the cell line LS178Y.- Endpoint:

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: relative total growth - Evaluation criteria:
- A test item is considered as mutagenic if:
- a clear and dose-related increase in the number of revertants occurs and/or
- a biologically relevant positive response for at least one of the dose groups occurs in at least one tester strain with or without metabolic activation.
A biologically relevant increase is described as follows:
- if in tester strains TA 100 and E. coli WP2 uvr A the number of reversions is at least twice as high
- if in tester strains TA 1535, TA 1537 and TA 98 the number of reversions is at least three times higher as compared to the reversion rate of the solvent control. - Statistics:
- According to the OECD guidelines, the biological relevance of the results is the criterion for the interpretation of results, a statistical evaluation of the results is not regarded as necessary. A test item producing neither a dose related increase in the number of revertants nor a reproducible biologicallyrelevant positive response at any of the dose groups is considered to be non-mutagenic in this system.

- Additional information on results:
- Pre-Experiment for Toxicity: The toxicity of the test item was determined with tester strain TA 98 and TA 100 in a pre-experiment. Eight concentrations were tested for toxicity and induction of mutations with three plates each. The experimental conditions in this pre-experiment were the same as described for the plate incorporation test (Experiment 1). Toxicity may be detected by a clearing or rather diminution of the background lawn or a reduction in the number of revertants down to a mutation factor of approximately ≤ 0.5 in relation to the solvent control. The test item was tested in the pre-experiment at the following concentrations: 0.00316, 0.0100, 0.0316, 0.100, 0.316, 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 µl/plate.
No precipitation of the test article was observed in any tester strain used in Experiment 1 and 2 (with and without metabolic activation). Toxic effects of the test article were noted in all tester strains evaluated in Experiment 1 and 2.
COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA: Positive and negative controls of the recent study are within the HCD-range for positive (-S9 / +S9) and negative (-S9 / +S9) controls.
The reference mutagens induced a distinct increase of revertant colonies indicating the validity of the experiments.
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results: negative
In conclusion, it can be stated that during the described mutagenicity test and under the experimental conditions reported, Isooctyl mercaptopropionate did not cause gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the tester strains used.
Therefore, Isooctyl mercaptopropionate is considered to be non-mutagenic in this bacterial reverse mutation assay. - Executive summary:
The test item Isooctyl mercaptopropionate was investigated for its potential to induce gene mutations according to the plate incorporation test (experiment I) and the pre-incubation test (experiment II) using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and tester strain E. coli WP2 uvrA.
In two independent experiments several concentrations of the test item were used. Each assay was conducted with and without metabolic
activation. The concentrations, including the controls, were tested in triplicate. The following concentrations of the test item were prepared and used in the experiments:
Experiment I:
0.0316, 0.100, 0.316, 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 μL/plate
in addition 0.0100 μL/plate only for tester strain TA 100
Experiment II:
0.00316, 0.0100, 0.0316, 0.100, 0.316, 1.0, 2.5 and 5.0 μL/plate
No precipitation of the test item was observed in any tester strain used in experiment I and II (with and without metabolic activation).
Toxic effects of the test item were noted in all tester strains used in experiment I and II:
• In experiment I and II toxic effects of the test item were observed at concentrations of 0.0316 μL/plate and higher (without metabolic
activation) and at concentrations of 0.316 μL/plate and higher (with metabolic activation), depending on the particular tester strain.
No biologically relevant increases in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains were observed following treatment with Isooctyl mercaptopropionate at any concentration level, neither in the presence nor absence of metabolic activation in experiment I and II.
The reference mutagens induced a distinct increase of revertant colonies indicating the validity of the experiments.In conclusion, it can be stated that during the described mutagenicity test and under the experimental conditions reported, Isooctyl
mercaptopropionate did not cause gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the tester strains used.
Therefore, Isooctyl mercaptopropionate is considered to be non-mutagenic in this bacterial reverse mutation assay.

mercaptopropionate did not cause gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the tester strains used.
Therefore, Isooctyl mercaptopropionate is considered to be non-mutagenic in this bacterial reverse mutation assay.
Gene mutation assay in mammalian cells
The test item Isooctyl mercaptopropionate was assessed for its potential to induce mutations at the mouse lymphoma thymidine kinase locus using the cell line L5178Y.
The selection of the concentrations was based on data from the pre-experiment. In the main experiment 0.34 uL/mL (with metabolic
activation) and 0.10 pL/mL (without metabolic activation) were selected as the highest concentrations. The test item was investigated in the main experiment at the following concentrations:
with metabolic activation:
