ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
The bacterial background lawn was not reduced in the main study at all concentrations tested and no decrease in the number of revertants was observed. - Conclusions:
- Based on the results of this study it is concluded that the test article is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay.
- Executive summary:
The test material was tested in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay with four histidine-requiring strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA1535, TA1537, TA100 and TA98) and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay with a tryptophan-requiring strain of Escherichia coli WP2UvrA in two independent experiments. In the dose range finding test, the test article was tested up to concentrations of 5000 µg/plate in the absence and presence of S9 mix in the strains TAl00 and WP2UvrA. At this dose level no toxicity was observed. Precipitation was observed on the plates at dose levels of 333 µg/plate and upwards. In the mutation assays, the test item was tested up to concentrations of 333 µg/plate in the absence and presence of S9 mix. Precipitated was observed at this dose level. The bacterial background lawn was not reduced at all concentrations tested and no decrease in the number of revertants was observed. The test article did not induce a dose-related increase in the number of revertant (His+) colonies in each of the four tester strains (TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100) and in the number of revertant (Trp+) colonies in tester strain WP2UvrA both in the absence and presence of S9 metabolic activation. These results were confirmed in an independently repeated experiment. Based on the results of this study it is concluded that the test item is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay.

Additional information
Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test
The test substance was tested according to OECD guideline 471 using strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA1535, TA1537, TA100 and TA98) and Escherichia coli WP2uvrA in two independent experiments. In the dose range finding test, the test substance was tested up to concentrations of 5000 µg/plate in the absence and presence of S9 mix in the strains TA100 and WP2uvrA. At this dose level no toxicity was observed. The test substance precipitated on the plates at dose levels of 333 µg/plate and upwards. In the main mutation assays, the test substance was tested up to concentrations of 333 µg/plate in the absence and presence of S9 mix. The test substance precipitated on the plates at this dose level. The bacterial background lawn was not reduced at all concentrations tested and no decrease in the number of revertants was observed. The test substance did not induce a dose-related increase in the number of revertant (His+) colonies in each of the four tester strains (TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100) and in the number of revertant (Trp+) colonies in tester strain WP2uvrA both in the absence and presence of S9 metabolic activation. These results were confirmed in an independently repeated experiment. Based on the results of this study it is concluded that the test substance is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay (Notox, 1999).
Justification for classification or non-classification
Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
The available experimental test data is reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. As a result the substance does not need to be classified and labelled for mutagenic toxicity under Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
