- METHOD OF APPLICATION: Initial Mutation Test - Plate Incorporation Method; Mutation Test - Pre-Incubation Method; Confirmatory Mutation Test - Pre-Incubation Method; Complementary Initial Mutation Test - Plate Incorporation Method; Complementary Confirmatory Mutation Test - Pre-Incubation Method. Procedure for Exposure in the Initial Mutation Test and in the Complementary Initial Mutation Test:
A standard plate incorporation procedure was performed as an Initial Mutation Test. The same meth
od was used in the Complementary Initial Mutation Test. Bacteria (cultured in Nutrient Broth No.2 as described in Section 5.3.6.) were exposed to the test item both in the presence and absence of an
appropriate metabolic activation system.
Molten top agar was prepared and kept at 45°C. The equivalent number of minimal glucose agar plates (three plates per concentration and for each control) was properly labelled. The test item and
other components were prepared freshly and added to the overlay (45°C). The content of the tubes:
top agar: 2000 μL
vehicle (solvent) or test item solution (or reference controls): 50 μL
overnight culture of test strain: 100 μL phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) or S9 mix: 500 μL
This solution was mixed and poured on the surface of minimal agar plates. For activation studies, inst
ead of phosphate buffer, 0.5 mL of the S9 mix was added to each overlay tube. The entire test consi
sted of non-activated and activated test conditions, with the addition of untreated, negative (solvent)
and positive controls. After preparation, the plates were incubated at 37°C for 48±1 hours.
Procedure for Exposure in the Confirmatory Mutation Test and Complementary Confirmatory Mutation
Test:
A pre-incubation procedure was performed as a Confirmatory Mutation Test since in the Initial Mu
tation Test no positive effect was observed. The same method was used in the Complementary
Confirmatory Mutation Test.
For the pre-incubation method, bacteria (cultured in Nutrient Broth No.2. as described in 5.3.6.) were
exposed to the test item both in the presence and absence of an appropriate metabolic activation
system. The equivalent number of minimal glucose agar plates was properly labelled. Molten top
agar was prepared and kept at 45°C.
Before the overlaying, 50 μL of test item formulations or its vehicle (or positive reference controls or
their solvent), 100 μL of the overnight culture of bacterial cells and the 0.5 mL of S9 mix (activated
test conditions) or phosphate buffer pH 7.4 (nonactivated test conditions) were added into the appropriate tubes to provide direct contact between bacteria and the test item. These tubes (3 tubes per
control and 3 tubes for each concentration level) were gently mixed and incubated for 20 min at 37ºC
in a shaking incubator.
After the incubation period, 2 mL of molten top agar were added to the tubes, and then the content
mixed and poured on the surface of minimal glucose agar plates. The entire test consisted of nonactivated
and activated test conditions, with the addition of untreated, negative and positive controls.
After preparation, the plates were incubated at 37°C for 48±1 hour. - Evaluation criteria:
- The colony numbers on the untreated / negative (vehicle/solvent) / positive control and test item
treated plates were determined by manual counting. Visual examination of the plates was also
performed; precipitation or signs of growth inhibition (if any) were recorded and reported. The mean number of revertants per plate, the standard deviation and the mutation factor* values were calculated for each concentration level of the test item and for the controls using Microsoft ExcelTM s
oftware.
* Mutation factor (MF): mean number of revertants on the test item plate / mean number of revertants
on the vehicle control plate.
Criteria for Validity:
The study was considered valid if:
- the number of revertant colonies of the negative (solvent) and positive controls were in the historical
control range in all strains of the main tests;
- at least five analyzable concentrations were presented in all strains of the main tests.
Criteria for a Positive Response:
A test item was considered mutagenic if:
- a dose–related increase in the number of revertants occurred and/or;
- a reproducible biologically relevant positive response for at least one of the dose groups occurred in
at least one strain with or without metabolic activation.
An increase was considered biologically relevant if:
- the number of reversions was more than two times higher than the reversion rate of the negative
(solvent) control in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA bacterial
strains;
- the number of reversions was more than three times higher than the reversion rate of the negative
(solvent) control in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 and TA1537 bacterial strains.
Criteria for a Negative Response:
The test item was considered to have shown no mutagenic activity in this study if it produces neither
a dose-related increase in the number of revertants nor a reproduciblevbiologically relevant positive
response at any of the dose groups, with or without metabolic activation.

Any other information on results incl. tables
In the Initial Mutation Test and in the Complementary Initial Mutation Test (using the plate incorporation
method), the highest revertant rate was observed in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 bacterial strain
at 50 μg/plate and 5 μg/plate concentrations without metabolic activation (the observed mutation factor
value was 1.64). However, there was no clear dose-response relationship, the observed mutation factor
values were below the biologically relevant threshold limit and the numbers of revertant colonies were
within the historical control range.
In the Confirmatory Mutation Test and in the Complementary Confirmatory Mutation Test (using the
pre-incubation method), the highest revertant rate was observed in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 at
0.5 μg/plate concentration without metabolic activation (the observed mutation factor value was 2.14).
However, there was no clear dose-response relationship, the observed mutation factor values were
below the biologically relevant threshold limit and the numbers of revertant colonies were within the
historical control range.
Higher numbers of revertant colonies compared to the vehicle (solvent) control were detected in the
main tests in some other sporadic cases. However, no dose-dependence was observed in those cases
and they were below the biologically relevant threshold value. The numbers of revertant colonies were
within the historical control range in each case, so they were considered as reflecting the biological
variability of the test.
Sporadically, lower revertant counts compared to the vehicle (solvent) control were observed in the main
tests at some non-cytotoxic concentrations. However, no background inhibition was recorded and the
mean numbers of revertant colonies were in the historical control range in all cases, thus they were
considered as biological variability of the test system.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test item had no mutagenic activity in the applied bacterium tester strains under the test conditions used in this study.
- Executive summary:
The test item was tested for potential mutagenic activity using the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay.
The experiments were carried out using histidine-requiring auxotroph strains of Salmonella
typhimurium (Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537) and the tryptophanrequiring
auxotroph strain of Escherichia coli (Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA) in the presence and
absence of a post mitochondrial supernatant (S9 fraction) prepared from the livers of phenobarbital/β-
naphthoflavoneinduced rats.
The study included a Preliminary Compatibility Test, a Preliminary Concentration Range Finding
Test (Informatory Toxicity Test), an Initial Mutation Test (Plate Incorporation Method), a Confirmatory
Mutation Test (Pre-Incubation Method), a Complementary Initial Mutation Test (Plate Incorporation
Method, during the Experimental Period II) and a Complementary Confirmatory Mutation Test (Pre-
Incubation Method).
Based on the results of a solubility test, the test item was formulated in Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO).
Concentrations of 5000; 2500; 1000; 316; 100, 31.6 and 10 μg/plate were examined in the Preliminary
Concentration Range Finding Test. Based on the results of the Range Finding Test, the test item
concentrations in the Initial Mutation Test (5 strains) were, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50, 15.81, 5, 1.581 and
0.5 μg/plate, the test item concentrations in the Confirmatory Mutation Test (5 strains) in all Salmonella
typhimurium strains were 1581, 500, 158.1, 50, 15.81, 5, 1.581, 0.5 and 0.1581 μg/plate and in
Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA strain were 5000, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50, 15.81, 5 and 1.581 μg test item/
plate, the test item concentrations in the Complementary Initial Mutation Test in Escherichia coli WP2
strain were 5000, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50, 15.81 and 5 μg test item/plate. Examined concentrations in the
Complementary Confirmatory Mutation Test in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 strain without metabolic
activation were 158.1, 50, 15.81, 5, 1.581, 0.5 and 0.1581 μg test item/plate.
In the Preliminary Concentration Range Finding Test and in the main tests, none of the observed
revertant colony numbers were above the respective biological threshold value. There were no doserelated
trends and no indication of any treatment effect. In all test item treated groups, the numbers of
revertant colonies did not exceed the biological relevance when compared to the vehicle control and
were within the normal biological variability of the test system.
No precipitate was detected on the plates in the Preliminary Concentration Range Finding Test and in
the main tests in all examined bacterial strains with and without metabolic activation.
Inhibitory, cytotoxic effect of the test item was observed in the Preliminary Concentration Range Finding
Test and in the main tests in all Salmonella typhimurium strains with and without metabolic activation at
several concentrations. Furthermore in the Confirmatory Mutation Test the lower numbers of revertant
colonies may indicate inhibitory, cytotoxic effect of the test item in Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA without
metabolic activation at 5000 μg test item/plate. The mean values of revertant colonies of the negative
(vehicle/solvent) control plates were within the historical control range, the reference mutagens showed
the expected increase in the number of revertant colonies, the viability of the bacterial cells was checked
by a plating experiment in each test. At least five analyzable concentrations were presented in all strains
of the main tests, the examined concentration range was considered to be adequate. The study was
considered to be valid.
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 had no
