Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Terpineol multiconstituent was found not to be mutagenic in TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 1535 and TA 1537 with and without metabolic activation.

Executive summary:

In a reverse gene mutation assay in bacteria, performed according to OECD Guideline 471 and in compliance with GLP, strains of S. typhimurium (TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 1535 and TA 1537) were exposed to Terpineol multiconstituent at concentrations of 50, 150, 500, 1500 and 5000 µg/plate in both the absence and presence of S9 metabolic activation according to the direct plate incorporation method for a preliminary cytotoxicity test. In the main test, two experiments were performed at 19, 56, 167, 500 and 1500 µg/plate (up to cytotoxic concentrations) in both the absence and presence of S9. These experiments were performed according to the direct plate incorporation method except for the second experiment with S9 which was performed with a pre incubation period of 30 min with the test substance and S9 mix.

The positive controls induced the appropriate responses in the corresponding strains. Terpineol multiconstituent showed no biologically significant increases in revertant colony numbers over control count obtained with any of the tester strains at any concentrations in either presence or absence of S9 mix.

This study is classified as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for bacterial reverse gene mutation endpoint.

Therefore, Terpineol multiconstituent is not considered as mutagenic in this bacterial system according to CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
