Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Several in vitro genotoxicity studies have been conducted which showed that TEG is devoid of a mutagenic potential. A Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay was executed with strains TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538 at a concentration range for TEG of 1–113 mg per plate in the presence and absence of a metabolic activation system. There was no evidence for an increased mutation frequency (Ballantyne and Snelligs, Appl. Toxicol. 27: 291–299, 2007).
