- Metabolic activation system:
- Type and composition of metabolic activation system:
- source of S9: Rat liver microsomal enzymes (S9 homogenate) were obtained from Trinova Biochem GmbH, Giessen, Germany and were prepared from male Sprague Dawley rats that had been injected intraperitoneally with Aroclor 1254 (500 mg/kg body weight).
- method of preparation of S9 mix : S9-mix was prepared immediately before use and kept on ice. S9-mix contained per 10 ml: 30 mg NADP (Randox Laboratories Ltd., Crumlin, United Kingdom) and 15.2 mg glucose-6-phosphate (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany) in 5.5 ml or 5.0 ml Milli-Q water (first or second experiment, respectively) (Millipore Corp., Bedford, MA., USA); 2 ml 0.5 M sodium phosphate buffer pH 7.4; 1 ml 0.08 M MgCl2 solution (Merck); 1 ml 0.33 M KCl solution (Merck). The above solution was filter (0.22 µm)-sterilized. To 9.5 ml of S9-mix components 0.5 ml S9-fraction was added (5% (v/v) S9-fraction) to complete the S9-mix in the first experiment and to 9.0 ml of S9-mix components 1.0 ml S9-fraction was added (10% (v/v) S9-fraction) to complete the S9-mix in the second experiment.
- concentration or volume of S9 mix and S9 in the final culture medium: 5% (v/v) S9-mix (0.5 mL) in the first experiment and 10% S9-mix (v/v) (1.0 mL) in the second experiment.
- quality controls of S9 (e.g., enzymatic activity, sterility, metabolic capability): - Each S9 batch is characterised with the mutagens Benzo-(a)-pyrene and 2-aminoanthracene, which require metabolic activation, in tester strain TA100 at concentrations of 5 µg/plate and 2.5 µg/plate, respectively. - Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
- - Dose-range finding test: Selection of an adequate range of doses was based on a dose range finding test with tester strain TA100 with and without 5% (v/v) S9-mix. Eight concentrations, 1.7, 5.4, 17, 52, 164, 512, 1600 and 5000 µg/plate were tested in triplicate. The highest concentration of the test item used in the subsequent mutation experiment was 5000 µg/plate.
- The above mentioned dose range finding study with tester strain TA100 is reported as a part of the first mutation experiment. In the second part of the first mutation experiment, the test item was tested both in the absence and presence of 5% (v/v) S9-mix in the tester strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA102. Five concentrations, 52, 164, 512, 1600 and 5000 µg/plate were tested in triplicate.
- In a second mutation experiment, the test item was tested both in the absence and presence of 10% (v/v) S9-mix in all tester strains. Six concentrations, 275, 492, 878, 1568, 2800 and 5000 µg/plate were tested in triplicate
- The negative control (vehicle) and relevant positive controls were concurrently tested in each strain in the presence and absence of S9-mix. - Vehicle / solvent:
- - Vehicle(s)/solvent(s) used: dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)
- Justification for choice of solvent/vehicle: The test item was observed to be insoluble in water at 50 mg/ml. In DMSO, the test item was soluble at 50 mg/ml (= 5000 μg/plate). Based on these solubility findings, DMSO was selected as vehicle and 5000 μg/plate was selected as the maximum final concentration for the dose range finding test.

- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS:
- Number of cultures per concentration: triplicate
- Number of independent experiments: 2
METHOD OF TREATMENT/ EXPOSURE:
- Test substance added; in agar (plate incorporation)
- Method: Top agar in top agar tubes was melted by heating to 45 ± 2°C. The following solutions were successively added to 3 mL molten top agar:
- 0.1 mL of a fresh bacterial culture (109 cells/mL) of one of the tester strains,
- 0.1 mL to 0.3 mL of a dilution of the test item in DMSO or Milli-Q water and
- either 0.5 mL S9-mix (in case of activation assays) or 0.5 mL 0.1 M phosphate buffer (in case of non-activation assays).
The ingredients were mixed on a Vortex and the content of the top agar tube was poured onto a selective agar plate. After solidification of the top agar, the plates were inverted and incubated in the dark at 37.0 ± 1.0 °C for 48 ± 4 h. . After this period revertant colonies were counted automatically with the Sorcerer Colony Counter. Plates with sufficient test item precipitate to interfere with automated colony counting were counted manually. Evidence of test item precipitate on the plates and the condition of the bacterial background lawn were evaluated when considered necessary, macroscopically and/or microscopically by using a dissecting microscope
TREATMENT AND HARVEST SCHEDULE:
- Exposure duration/duration of treatment: 48 ± 4 h
METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF CYTOTOXICITY
- To determine the toxicity of the test item, the reduction of the bacterial background lawn, the increase in the size of the microcolonies and the reduction of the revertant colonies were examined - Evaluation criteria:
- In addition to the criteria stated below, any increase in the total number of revertants was evaluated for its biological relevance including a comparison of the results with the historical control data range.
A test item is considered negative (not mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in the tester strain TA100 or TA102 is not greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, and the total number of revertants in tester strains TA1535, TA1537 or TA98 is not greater than three (3) times the concurrent vehicle control.
b) The negative response should be reproducible in at least one follow-up experiment.
A test item is considered positive (mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in tester strain TA100 or TA102 is greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, or the total number of revertants in tester strain TA1535, TA1537 or TA98 is greater than three (3) times the concurrent control.
b) A concentration related effect is observed.
c) In case a follow up experiment is performed when a positive response is observed in one of the tester strains, the positive response should be reproducible in at least one follow up experiment. - Statistics:
- No formal hypothesis testing was done.

- TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Water solubility: The test item was observed to be insoluble in water at 50 mg/ml. In DMSO, the test item was soluble at 50 mg/ml (= 5000 µg/plate). Based on these solubility findings, DMSO was selected as vehicle and 5000 µg/plate was selected as the maximum final concentration for the dose range finding test
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: The test item was tested in tester strain TA100 at concentrations of 1.7, 5.4, 17, 52, 164, 512, 1600 and 5000 µg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix. Based on the results of the dose range finding test, the following dose range was selected for the first mutation experiment with the tester strains, TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA102 in the absence and presence of S9-mix: 52, 164, 512, 1600 and 5000 μg/plate. To obtain more information about the possible mutagenicity of the test item, a second mutation experiment was performed in the absence of S9-mix and in the presence of 10% (v/v) S9-mix. Based on the results of the first mutation experiment, the test item was tested up to the dose level of 5000 µg/plate in strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, TA100 and TA102
STUDY RESULTS
- Precipitate:
- Mutation Experiment 1: Precipitation of the test item on the plates was not observed at the start or at the end of the incubation period.
- Mutation Experiment 2: Precipitation of the test item on the plates was not observed at the start or at the end of the incubation period.
- Signs of toxicity:
- Mutation Experiment 1: See section Overall remarks, attachments for the data tables with results.
- Mutation Experiment 2: See section Overall remarks, attachments for the data tables with results.
Mutagenicity:
- Mutation Experiment 1: No increase in the number of revertants was observed upon treatment with the test item under all conditions tested.
- Mutation Experiment 2: No increase in the number of revertants was observed upon treatment with he test item under all conditions tested.
- Discussion:
The negative control values were within the laboratory historical control data ranges, except the response for TA100 (second experiment, absence of S9-mix). Since the mean number of revertant colonies showed a slightly lower number of revertant colonies (59 revertant colonies) when compared against relevant historical control data (64 relevant colonies), the validity of the test was considered to be not affected.
The strain-specific positive control values were within the laboratory historical control data ranges indicating that the test conditions were adequate and that the metabolic activation system functioned properly, except the response for TA102 (first experiment, absence of S9-mix). The purpose of the positive control is as a reference for the test system, where a positive response is required to check if the test system functions correctly. Since the value was 2.1 times greater than the concurrent solvent control value, this deviation in the mean plate count of the positive control had no effect on the validity of the test results.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the results of this study it is concluded that the test item is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay.
