- Preparation of S9 Homogenate and Activation Mixture
Sodium phenobarbitone and β-naphthoflavone induced rat liver S9 homogenate was used as the metabolic activation system. The S9 homogenate was prepared from male Wistar rats induced with intraperitoneal injection of sodium phenobarbitone and β-naphthoflavone at 16 mg/mL and 20 mg/mL, respectively, for 3 days prior to sacrifice. The S9 homogenate was prepared and stored in the test facility at -80±10ºC until use. Each batch of S9 homogenate was assessed for sterility by streaking the supernatant fluid on Nutrient Agar plates and incubated at 37±1ºC for 24 hours. It was found sterile and was further evaluated for its protein content (Modified Lowry Assay, Sword and Thomson, 1980) and for its ability to metabolize the promutagens 2-Aminoanthracene and Benzo(a)pyrene to mutagens using Salmonella typhimurium TA100 tester strain. The results were found to be acceptable for the tested parameters.
A volume of 1 mL of S9 homogenate was thawed immediately before use and mixed with 9 mL of co-factor solution containing 4 mM Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate (NADP) disodium salt, 5 mM Glucose-6-phosphate, 8 mM MgCl2 and 33 mM KCl in Phosphate Buffer Saline (PBS) of pH 7.34 for initial cytotoxicity, and pH 7.37 for plate incorporation and preincubation method to get the concentration of 10% (v/v). - Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
- Based on the results of precipitation test, the concentrations of 0.00625, 0.0125, 0.025, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, 1.6, 3.2 and 5 mg/plate were selected for the initial cytotoxicity test.
The test item resulted no cytotoxicity from 0.00625 to 5 mg/plate Salmonella typhimurium TA100 with lawn intensity 4+ (Thick lawn) in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system when compared to vehicle control.
Based on cytotoxicity results 5 mg/plate was considered as the highest test concentration for mutation assay. - Vehicle / solvent:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the results of the study, it is concluded that the test item Enzymatically produced steviol glycosides is “non-mutagenic” in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test up to the highest tested concentration of 5 mg/plate under the test conditions, when tested on Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA (pKM101) tester strains.
