DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Following incubation, the mutation plates were examined for evidence of toxicity to the background lawn, and where possible revertant colonies were counted. - Evaluation criteria:
- For valid data, the test article was considered to be mutagenic if:
1. A concentration related increase in revertant numbers was ≥2-fold (in strains TA98, TA100 and WP2 uvrA pKM101) or ≥3-fold (in strains TA1535 and TA1537) the concurrent vehicle control values
2. The positive trend/effects described above were reproducible.
The test article was considered as positive in this assay if the above criteria were met.
The test article was considered as negative in this assay if the above criteria were not met.
Results which only partially satisfied the above criteria were dealt with on a case-by-case basis. Biological relevance was taken into account, for example consistency of response within and between concentrations and (where applicable) between experiments. - Statistics:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- It was concluded that arabinofuranosidase, batch PPH40331 did not induce mutation in four histidine-requiring strains (TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537) of Salmonella typhimurium, and one tryptophan-requiring strain (WP2 uvrA pKM101) of Escherichia coli when tested under the conditions of this study. These conditions included treatments at concentrations up to 5000 μg TOS/mL (the maximum recommended concentration according to current regulatory guidelines) in the absence and in the presence of a rat liver metabolic activation system (S-9) using a modified Treat and Plate methodology.
- Executive summary:
Arabinofuranosidase, batch PPH40331 was assayed for mutation in four histidine-requiring strains (TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537) of Salmonella typhimurium, and one tryptophan-requiring strain (WP2 uvrA pKM101) of Escherichia coli, both in the absence and presence of metabolic activation by an Aroclor 1254-induced rat liver post-mitochondrial fraction (S-9), in two separate experiments. A 'treat and plate' procedure was used for all treatments in this study as arabinofuranosidase, PPH40331 is a high molecular weight protein (which may cause artefacts through growth stimulation in a standard plate-incorporation test). All arabinofuranosidase, PPH40331 treatments in this study were performed using formulations prepared in water for irrigation (purified water).
Experiment 1 treatments of all the tester strains were performed in the absence and in the presence of S-9, using final concentrations of arabinofuranosidase, PPH40331 at 16, 50, 160, 500, 1600 and 5000 μg TOS/mL, plus vehicle and positive controls. Following these treatments, no evidence of toxicity was observed in any of the tester strains.
Experiment 2 treatments of all the tester strains were performed in the absence and in the presence of S-9. The maximum test concentration of 5000 μg TOS/mL was retained for all strains. Narrowed concentration intervals were employed covering the range 160–5000 μg TOS/mL, in order to examine more closely those concentrations of arabinofuranosidase, PPH40331 approaching the maximum test concentration and considered therefore most likely to provide evidence of any mutagenic activity.
Following these treatments there was again no clear evidence of toxicity observed. The test article was completely soluble in the aqueous assay system at all concentrations treated, in each of the experiments performed. Vehicle and positive control treatments were included for all strains in both experiments. The numbers of revertant colonies per plate all fell within acceptable ranges for vehicle control treatments, and were elevated by positive control treatments.
Following arabinofuranosidase, PPH40331 treatments of all the test strains in the absence and presence of S-9, there were no clear and concentration-related increases in revertant numbers observed, and none that were ≥2-fold (in strains TA98, TA100 and WP2 uvrA pKM101) or ≥3-fold (in strains TA1535 and TA1537) the concurrent vehicle control. This study was considered therefore to have provided no evidence of any mutagenic activity in this assay system.
It was concluded that arabinofuranosidase, batch PPH40331 did not induce mutation in four histidine-requiring strains (TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537) of Salmonella typhimurium, and one tryptophan-requiring strain (WP2 uvrA pKM101) of Escherichia coli when tested under the conditions of this study. These conditions included treatments at concentrations up to 5000 μg TOS/mL (the maximum recommended concentration according to current regulatory guidelines) in the absence and in the presence of a rat liver metabolic activation system (S-9) using a modified Treat and Plate methodology.
