Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
Type and composition of metabolic activation system: S9 liver Mix
- source of S9 : S9 was obtained by Trinova Biochem GmbH, Gießen.
- method of preparation of S9 mix: produced from the livers of male Sprague-Dawley rats which were treated with 500 mg Aroclor 1254/kg body weight intra-peritoneally.
- concentration or volume of S9 mix and S9 in the final culture medium: 500µL
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
nominal concentrations: 0, 50, 150, 500, 1500, 5000 µg/plate Experiment 1 and 0, 78, 156, 313, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000 µg/plate Experiment 2
Vehicle / solvent:
- Vehicle(s)/solvent(s) used: DMSO; demineralized water
- Justification for choice of solvent/vehicle: DMSO was chosen due to the solubility of the positive controls 4-Nitro-1,2-phenylene diamine, benzo-a-pyrene and 2-amino anthracene
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
no
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
yes
True negative controls:
no
Positive controls:
yes
Positive control substance:
sodium azide
benzo(a)pyrene
other: 4-Nitro-1,2-phenylene diamine: without metabolic activation, TA98, TA102, TA1537, 20 µg (TA98) and 30 µg (TA102 and TA1537) 2-Amino-anthracene: with metabolic activation, TA 100, TA102, TA1535, TA1537, 1µg (TA100, TA1535) and 2.4 µg (TA102, TA1537)
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS:
- Number of cultures per concentration: triplicate for each with and without metabolic acitvation
- Number of independent experiments : 2

METHOD OF TREATMENT/ EXPOSURE:
- Cell density at seeding (if applicable): > E+09 cells/mL
- Test substance added in agar (plate incorporation)and in the second experiment with preincubation


METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: background growth inhibition
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity: No cytotoxicity nor precipitation occurred with the test item during the experimental time.

Rationale for test conditions:
as recommended by OECD Testguideline 471
Evaluation criteria:
The colonies were counted visually and the numbers were recorded. A substance is considered to be mutagenic, if a reproducible increase with or without metabolic activation of revertant colonies per plate exceeding an increase factor of 2 for the bacteria strains TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1535 and TA1537 compared to vehicle controls in at least one strain can be observed. A concentration-related increase over the range tested is also taken as a sign of mutagenic activity. A substance is not mutagenic if it does not meet these criteria. If the criteria listed above are not clearly met, the results will be assessed as equivocal and will be discussed.
Statistics:
The colonies were counted visually and the numbers were recorded. A validated spread-sheet software (Microsoft Excel®) was used to calculate mean values and standard deviations of each treatment, solvent control and positive control.

Remarks:
The positive control of strain TA 1537 was slightly outside the historical data. However, since the number of revetants was increased this was not considered to reduce the validity of the test result.

Additional information on results:
TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Data on pH: not reported
- Water solubility: The test item is not completely soluble in a concentration of 50 g/L in any of the solvents directly after preparation. But after a storage of 24 hours at room temperature (20 ± 5 °C) and vortexing, the test item in demin. water appeared soluble.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES (if applicable):
In a non-GLP pre-test, the solubility of the test item was tested in a concentration of 50 g/L in demineralised (demin.) water, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetone, ethanol and tetrahydrofuran (THF). The test item is not completely soluble in a concentration of 50 g/L in any of the solvents directly after preparation. But after a storage of 24 hours at room temperature (20 ± 5 °C) and vortexing, the test item in demin. water appeared soluble. Based on these results of the non-GLP pre-test, a test item suspension containing 50 ± 5 g/L in demin. water was prepared

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
There was no evidence of induced mutant colonies over background, when ferrous glycinate sulfate was tested with and without metabolic activation up to the recommended limit concentration (5000 µg/plate).
Executive summary:

In a reverse gene mutation assay in bacteria according to EU Method B.14 (Version Commission Directive 92/69/EEC), strains TA1535, TA 1537, TA 102, TA 100 and TA 98of S. typhimurium were exposed to Ferrous glycinate sulfate. Test was performed with concentrations up to the recommended limit concentration of 5000 µg/plate in the absence and the presence of mammalian metabolic activation.

 

No evidence of biologically significant mutagenic activity of the test item was found in the presence and absence of metabolic activation, up to the limit concentration of 5000 µg/plate. The positive controls induced the appropriate responses in the corresponding strains and activity of metabolizing system was confirmed.

 

There was no evidence of induced mutant colonies over background.

 Based on the presented data ferrous monoglycinate sulfate is not considered mutagenic and does not need to be classified according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and the globally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS).
