Bacteria are stored as stock cultures in ampoules with nutrient broth + 5% DMSO in liquid nitrogen
Preculture: 10 hours in a shaking water bath at 37°C; thawed bacterial suspension in nutrient medium (8 g/L Merck nutrient broth and 5 g/L NaCl).
Selective agar: 2.0% Vogel-Bonner-Glucose-Minimal-Agar.
Overlay agar: 6.0 g/L Merck Agar Agar; 6.0 g/L NaCl; 10.5 mg/L L-histidine x HCl x H2O; 12.2 mg/L biotin.
Experimental performance:
Mixing the following components:
- 100 µL test solution at each dose level, positive or negative control
- 500 µL S9 mix or S9 mix substitution buffer
- 100 µL bacterial suspension
- 2000 µL overly agar
This mix was poured onto the selective agar plates; for the pre-incubation assay the mix was incubated at 37°C for 60 min prior to pouring onto minimal agar plates.
DURATION:
Exposure duration: After solidification at least 48h at 37°C in the dark (upside down).
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS:
At least 3 replicates for each strain and dose level.
DATA RECORDING:
Colonies were counted using the AUTOCOUNT (Artek Systems Corporation, BIOSYS GmbH, Karben). If precipitation of the test substance precluded automatic counting the revertant colonies were counted by hand.

- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, propane-1,3-diol was non-mutagenic in a Salmonella typhimurium mutation assay in strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 in the presence and absence of an exogenous metabolic activation system.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to investigate the potential of 1,3-propanediol to induce gene mutations according to the plate incorporation test (experiment I) and the pre-incubation test (experiment II) using the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, TA100, and TA102. The assay was performed in two independent experiments both with and without liver microsomal activation. Each concentration, including the controls, was tested in triplicate. Concentrations tested included: 0, 33.3, 100, 333.3, 1000, 2500, and 5000 µg/plate. No toxic effects occurred in the test groups with or without metabolic activation. The plates incubated with the test article showed normal background growth up to 5000 µg/plate with and without S9 mix in all strains used.
No substantial increases in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains were observed following treatment with 1,3-propanediol at any dose level, either in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. There was also no tendency of higher mutation rates with increasing concentrations. The test substance did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the strains used. Therefore, 1,3-propanediol was considered to be non-mutagenic in this Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay.

NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: 5e5 cells/25cm2
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: mitotic index
OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
- Determination of polyploidy: yes
- Determination of endoreplication: yes - Evaluation criteria:
- The use of the V79 cell line was based on the sponsor's request, and this cell line is not commonly used in chromosome aberration studies. The frequency of cells with structural chromosome aberrations in the solvent control must be ≤6%. The percentage of cells with chromosome aberrations in the positive control must be statistically increased (p≤0.05, Fisher's exact test) relative to the solvent control.
- Statistics:
- Statistical analysis of the percent aberrant cells was performed using the Fisher's exact test. Fisher's test was used to compare pairwise the percent aberrant cells of each treatment group with that of the solvent control. In the event of a positive Fisher's test at any test substance dose level, the Cochran-Armitage test was used to measure dose-responsiveness. All conclusions were based on sound scientific basis; however, as a guide to interpretation of the data, the test substance is considered to induce a positive response when the percentage of cells with aberrations was increased in a dose-responsive manner with one or more concentrations being statistically significant (p≤0.05). If the test substance did not demonstrate a statistically significant increase in aberrations, it was concluded to be negative.

- Executive summary:
The test substance was tested in the chromosome aberration assay using Chinese hamster V79 cells in both the presence and absence of an Aroclor-induced S9 activation system in order to evaluate the clastogenic potential of the test substance. The maximum dose tested was 5000 µg/mL. The cells were treated for 4 and 20 hours in the non-activated test system and for 4 hours in the S9 activated test system, and all cells were harvested at 20 hours after treatment initiation. The test substance was soluble in treatment medium at all dose levels in all treatment conditions. The test substance was concluded to be negative for the induction of structural and numerical chromosome aberrations in Chinese hamster V79 cells in the presence and absence of Aroclor-induced rat liver S9.

- CRITERIA FOR DOSE SELECTION: Range finding study identified that 4640 mg/kg bw caused severe toxicity symptoms and death, and at 3160 mg/kg bw distinct toxicity symptoms but no death was observed. Test guideline considers 2000 mg/kg bw to be the maximum single (limit) dose to be administered.
DETAILS OF SLIDE PREPARATION: Mice were sacrificed by CO2 overdose. Both femurs removed from each mouse and the bone marrow cells flushed into a labeled centrifuge tube with approx. 1.5 mL of fetal calf serum. Centrifuged at approx. 180 x g for 5 minutes. Supernatant serum was discarded and bone marrow cells suspended upon a thin layer of serum. A small drop of the marrow serum suspension was smeared on a slide and allowed to dry overnight.
METHOD OF ANALYSIS: Microscopical evaluation; 1000 polychromatic erythrocytes per animal were scored for the incidence of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei. Calculation of PCE/NCE, based on 1000 erythrocytes (PCE+NCE) scored per slide.
- Evaluation criteria:
- If a test material produced neither a statistically significant and reproducible positive response nor a dose related statistically significant response at any one of the test points compared to the negative control group, it is considered non-mutagenic in this system.
- Statistics:
- POISSON test
- Sex:
- male/female
- Genotoxicity:
- negative
- Remarks:
- non-mutagenic
- Toxicity:
- no effects
- Negative controls validity:
- valid
- Positive controls validity:
- valid
- Additional information on results:
- Under the experimental conditions reported, 1,3-Propanediol is considered not to induce chromosomal mutations in mice by damage to the chromosomes or the miotic apparatus at 24 or 48 hour intervals after the animals had received a single oral dose of 2150 mg/kg body weight. However, a weak clastogenic effect cannot be totally excluded due to a statistically significant increase in micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes at the 48 hour sampling time when calculations were performed for males and females combined. According to the test guideline, a second test (repetition test) was performed to examine the reproducibility of the statistically significant response at the 48 hour sampling time in males and females combined and to assess a possible dose relation in the increase of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes. These responses could not be verified during the repetition test using two additional dose levels and is therefore considered to be an incidental finding.
Therefore, 1,3-Propanediol is non-mutagenic in the reported in vivo mouse micronucleus test. - Conclusions:
- 1,3-Propanediol is non-mutagenic in the reported in vivo mouse micronucleus test.
- Executive summary:
This in vivo micronucleus test in mice was performed to assess the potential mutagenic activity, induced by 1,3-propanediol through damage to the chromosomes of to the mitotic apparatus. The main test was performed with three groups, the negative control, the positive control, and the test material group (2150 mg/kg). Half the mice were sacrificed at 24 hours after treatment and the remaining mice were sacrificed 48 hours after treatment. Bone marrow was removed from the femurs for examination. All animals of the positive control group were sacrificed 24 hours after administration. One thousand polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE) per animal were scored for micronuclei. The ratio of polychromatic to normochromatic erythrocytes (NCE) was used to assess the toxicity of the test material. No test substance-related clinical observations were observed in the mice. No mortality was observed. Under the experimental conditions reported, 1,3-Propanediol is considered not to induce chromosomal mutations in mice by damage to the chromosomes or the miotic apparatus at 24 or 48 hour intervals after the animals had received a single oral dose of 2150 mg/kg body weight. However, a weak clastogenic effect cannot be totally excluded due to a statistically significant increase in micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes at the 48 hour sampling time when calculations were performed for males and females combined.
According to the test guideline, a second test (repetition test) was performed to examine the reproducibility of the statistically significant response at the 48 hour sampling time in males and females combined and to assess a possible dose relation in the increase of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes. Dose levels of 1000, 1470, and 2150 were used in the repetition test. The responses of the first test could not be verified during the repetition test using two additional dose levels and is therefore considered to be an incidental finding. Therefore, 1,3-Propanediol is non-mutagenic in the reported in vivo mouse micronucleus test.

Additional information
This substance has been tested in 4 in vitro genetic toxicity studies involving bacterial and mammalian cells and mutagenicity and clastogenicity endpoints. Additionally, the substance has been tested in the mouse by the oral route of exposure for genetic toxicity. In bacterial cells, this substance was not mutagenic based on a lack of significant effects to reserve mutations. In mammalian cells, this substance was also not mutagenic for forward mutations at the HPGRT locus. This substance was tested for clastogenicity in V79 cells resulting in a significant increase in chromosome aberrations (CA) in the absence of metabolic activation at the highest scorable dose (the highest dose tested was not scored due to cytotoxicity). The result was not dose-related. It was negative in the presence of metabolic activation. Potential for poor metaphase preparation being related to the positive result could not be excluded; therefore, the study was repeated with the same protocol. The second study did not show any significant increase in CA at the same and higher dose. This substance was also negative for genetic toxicity in the mouse micronucleus test. Taken together, these results support a low potential of this substance to adversely affect genetic material, and it is concluded that it is not genetically toxic.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The test substance did not produce mutagenicity when evaluated in cell culture or laboratory animals. The substance does not need to be classified for mutagenicity according to EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
