Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD: standard plate test

DURATION
- Exposure duration: 48 hours

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS:
3 experiments, 4 plates per dose or per control

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: his- background growth, reduction in number of bacterial colonies
Evaluation criteria:
In general, a substance to be characterized as positive in the Ames test has to fulfill the following requirements:
- doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate (control)
- dose-response relationship
- reproducibility of the results
