Remarks:
For the distribution of the top agar on the minimal-glucose-plates, the plates were slowly shaken instead of using the Drigalski-spatula. As distribution was good, this was considered as uncritical.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The test item is considered not mutagenic.
Executive summary:

Mutagenicity of Test Item

The test item did not show mutagenic effects in all four experiments. The number of rever- tant colonies was not increased in comparison with the spontaneous revertants (solvent only).

Cytotoxicity of the test item was detected in the first experiment in the upper three concen­trations: 5000 pg/plate, 1500 [jg/plate and 500 pg/plate and in the third experiment in all seven concentrations (150 - 2.5 pg/plate).

Therefore it can be stated, that under the test conditions, the test item Bis(triphenylsilyl)- chromate is not mutagenic in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test usingSalmonella typhi- murium,strains TA 97a, TA 98, TA 100, TA 102 and TA 1535 in concentrations below the toxicity threshold.

Acceptability of Study

Most spontaneous revertants and positive control values were within the range of the his­torical data; if they lay outside the range, the differences to the respective maximum or minimum of the history were marginal only. Mutagenicity of the positive controls was de­tected without doubts. Therefore, the result of the test is considered valid.

Discussion

The test item is considered not mutagenic for the reasons given above.

No sings of toxicity could be observed in the toxicity control. Therefore, the highest con­centration was 5000 Mg/plate for the first experiment.

But the test item showed cytotoxicity towards the bacteria in the first experiment in the up­per three concentrations, therefore a second experiment was performed with five concen­trations and again using the plate-incorporation-method. The maximum dose in the second experiment was 150 fjg/plate. No toxicity and no mutagenicity were detected.

On the base of the results of the second experiment, a third experiment was performed with seven concentrations using the pre-incubation-method. The test item showed cytotox­icity in all seven concentrations. Therefore, a fourth experiment was performed with six lower concentrations.

The confirmation tests of the genotype did not show any irregularities. The control of the titre was above the demanded value. The revertant colonies of the positive controls were in the range of the historical data of the laboratory (see page 49) and were definitely in­creased in comparison with the negative controls, as well as showing mutagenous poten­tial of the diagnostic mutagenes.

Spontaneous revertants were within the normal range in comparison with the historical data of the LAUS GmbH.

For these reasons, the result of the test is considered valid.
