Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: 2 main experiments, both conducted with plate incorporation method

- Exposure duration: 48 hours at 37 +/- 1.5°C

SELECTION AGENT (mutation assays): test item

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3

COUNTING: electronic counting with an Artek counter

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- TA 100 and WP2uvrA with and without metabolic activation at 20.6, 61.7, 185.2, 555.6, 1666.7 and 5000 µg/plate
Evaluation criteria:
Test is considered acceptable if
- mean colony counts of the control values of strains are within the acceptable ranges
- the results of the positive controls meet the criteria for a positive response (at least a reproducible doubling of the mean number of revertants per plate above that of the negative control at any concentration for one or more of the strains TA 98, TA 1535, TA 1537 and WP2uvrA; a reproducible increase of the mean number of revertants per plate for any concentration above that of the negative control by at least a factor of 1.5 for strain TA 100).
Generally a concentration-related effect should be observable.
Statistics:
A statistical analysis was not performed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative without metabolic activation all tester strains
negative with metabolic activation all tester strains

Under conditions tested, the test item did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frame-shifts in the genome of the tester strains used.
Thus, the test item is considered non-mutagenic in this bacterial reverse mutation assay.
