Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results:
negative with and without metabolic activation

The reported data of this mutagenicity assay show that under the experimental conditions applied the test item did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the strains used. In conclusion, the test item CUCURBIT[8]URIL had no mutagenic activity in the examined bacterial strains under the test conditions of this study.
Executive summary:

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test item by measuring its ability to induce reverse mutations at selected loci of several strains of Salmonella typhimuriumand at the tryptophan locus of Escherichia coli WP2uvrA strain in the presence and absence of activated rat liver S9 fraction. Study was performed to – Ninth Addendum to OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, Section 4, No. 471, "Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test", 21 July 1997 – EPA Health Effects Test Guidelines, OPPTS 870.5100 "Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test", EPA

712-C-98-247, August 1998 – Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, B.13/14. "Mutagenicity: Reverse Mutation Test Using Bacteria", 30 May 2008 The method described in the above mentioned guidelines conforms to the guidelines for bacterial mutagenicity testing published by the major Japanese Regulatory Authorities including METI, MHLW and MAFF.

In conclusion The reported data of this mutagenicity assay show that under the experimental conditions applied the test item did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the strains used.

In conclusion, the test item CUCURBIT[8]URIL had no mutagenic activity in the examined bacterial strains under the test conditions of this study.
