METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: cloning/plating efficiency - Evaluation criteria:
- An evaluation of either no adverse effect or an adverse effect was made independently with and without metabolic activation by the following criteria:
1. To be an adverse effect, the Mutant Frequency must exhibit a reproducible, significant increase, and that increase must be accompanied by an increase in the average number of colonies per selection plate compared to that of the solvent control.
2. If 2 different concentrations of the test compound produce a significant increase in the Mutant Frequency, then duplicates, to confirm the reproducibility of the result, may be in the same test. If the increase in the Mutant Frequency was at only one test compound concentration, then the result must be reproduced in an independent test before accepting it as evidence for an adverse effect.
3. Negative results (no adverse effect) must include evaluation of the test compound to its limits of solubility or over a range of toxicities from 75% or greater survival to 20% or less survival relative to the solvent control. If a test compound is relatively non-toxic, the maximum treatment concentration will be 1000 µg/mL. - Statistics:
- The Mutant Frequency at each concentration of test compound is compared to that of both the simultaneous solvent controls and the historical negative control for this laboratory. The results of tests performed at different times are not pooled but analyzed independently.

- RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
Two range finding studies were conducted:
1) without metabolic activation at 9 test substance concentrations from 0.05 to 1000 µg/mL (88% a.i.). The toxicity results as assessed by plating efficiency ranged from 19% survival at 5.0 µg/mL to 88% survival at 0.1 µg/mL. No surviving cells were found following treatment concentrations > 10 µg/mL.
2) with metabolic activating system containing Fischer-344 rat liver (S-9 at 1 mg protein/mL) at test substance concentrations from 0.1 to 1000 µg/mL (88 % a.i.). Approximately 100% or more cell survival occurred at concentrations less than or equal to 2.0 µg/mL. No surviving cells were found following treatment at 1000 µg/mL. Treatment with 5 or 20 µg/mL resulted in cell survivals of 79 and 41%, respectively.
STUDY RESULTS
Without metabolic activation, Dithane M-45 did not induce mutations when tested from 0.5 to 15 µg/mL (0.44 to 13.2 µg/mL a.i.).These treatment concentrations yielded >101 to <52 cell survival relative to solvent controls. Dithane M-45 did not Induce mutations when tested with a metabolic activating system derived from Aroclcr induced Fischer 344 rat liver (1 mg S-9 protein/mL) at compound concentrations of 0.25 to 45 µg/mL (0.22 to 39.6 µg/mL a.i.). These treatments produced >100 to <5% cell survival relative to the solvent controls. In addition, 1 µg/mL Dithane M-45 did not induce mutations when tested with 0.3 and 2.0 mg S-9 protein/mL. Dithane M-45 also did not induce mutations when tested from 1 to 16 µg/mL (0.88 to 14.1 µg/mL a.i.) with a metabolic activation system from B6C3F1 mouse liver (1 mg S9 protein/mL). These treatments produced cell survivals from >100 to <5%. In addition, Dithane M-45 at either 4 or 12 µg/mL did not induce mutations when tested at 0.3 and 0.2 mg S-9 protein/mL.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Mancozeb is not mutagenic at the HGPRT locus of the CHO cells up to cytotoxic concentrations with and without metabolic activation.
- Executive summary:
Dithane M-45 (Mancozeb, coordination product of zinc and manganese ethylene bis-dithiocarbamate. 88.0% a.i., TD# 83-224, Lot 0842) was tested for mutagenic activity at the hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyl transferase (HGPRT) locus in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells both with and without metabolic activation by Aroclor 1254-induced Fischer 344 rat or B6C3F1 Mouse liver S-9. Without metabolic activation, cells were exposed to the test compound dissolved in water, for 18 to 20 h at 37C in Ham's nutrient medium F-12 supplemented with 5% heat-activated, dialyzed, fetal calf serum. With S-9 metabolic activation, cells were exposed to the test compound for approximately 5 h at 37°C in serum-free Ham's nutrient medium F-12. After treatment, cells were grown for approximately 8 days to permit expression of the mutation, and then cultured in 10 µM 6-thioguanine (6TG) to select for HGPRT locus mutants. After Incubation for approximately 7 days, the mutant colonies were counted and compared to the results of concurrent and historical negative (solvent and untreated) controls.
Without metabolic activation, Dithane H-45 did not induce mutations when tested from 0.5 to 15 µg/mL (0.44 to 13.2 µg/mL a.i.). These treatment concentrations yielded >101 to <5% cell survival relative to solvent controls.
Dithane M-45 did not Induce mutations when tested with a metabolic activating system derived from Aroclor Induced Fischer 344 rat liver (1 mg S-9 protein/mL) at compound concentrations of 0.25 to 45 µg/mL (0.22 to 39.6 µg/mL a.i.). These treatments produced >100 to <5% cell survival relative to the solvent controls. In addition, 1 µg/mL Dithane H-45 did not induce mutations when tested with 0.3 and 2.0 mg S-9 protein/mL. Dithane M-45 also did not induce mutations when tested from 1 to 16 µg/mL (0.88 to 14.1 µg/mL a.i.) with a metabolic activation system from B6C3F1 mouse liver (1 mg S9 protein/mL). These treatments produced cell survivals from >100 to <5%. In addition, Dithane H-45 at either 4 or 12 µg/mL did not induce mutations when tested at 0.3 and 0.2 mg S-9 protein/mL.
Under these test conditions Dithane M-45 does not induce mutations at the HGPRT locus in CHO cells in culture when tested in the absence of metabolic activation, or in the presence of either Fischer 344 rat liver S-9 or B6C3F1 mouse liver S-9.
