- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Positive control(s):
- Mitomycin C, batch number 40F-0404, was used as the positive control compound. It was prepared as a solution in sterile 0.9% saoline at a concentration of 0.4 mg/ml. It was adminitered by IP injection.
Examinations
- Tissues and cell types examined:
- The femurs were cleared of tissue and one epiphysis removed from each bone. A direct bone marrow smear was made onto a slide containing a drop of calf serum. The slide was cleaned by inversion in methanol for 24 hours and air-dried immediately before use. One smear was mode from each femur.
- Details of tissue and slide preparation:
- The prepared smears were air-dried and fixed in methanol overnight. After fixation, the smears were air-dried and placed in buffered distilled water (pH 6.8) for 10 minutes prior to staining In Giemsa (dilution Factor I part Giemsa : 9 parts buffered distilled water pH 6.8) for 10 minutes. After rinsing in buffered distilled water (pH 6.8), the slides were air-dried and mounted in OPX. The stained smears were examined by light microscopy to determine the incidence of micronucleated cells per 1000 polychromatic erythrocytes per animal and the ratio of normochromatic to polychromatic erythrocytes.
- Evaluation criteria:
- A compound was considered to show evidence of mutagenic activity if it produced a statistically significant increase in micronucleated cells compared to the concurrent negative control values.

- RESULTS OF RANGE-FINDING STUDY
- Dose range: Phase I: 500, 5000, 10000, 15000, 24400 mg/kg; Phase II: 6000, 7000 and 8000 mg/kg
After administration of test substance at a total dosage of 500 mg/kg bodyweight, no toxic reactions were observed. At total dosages between 5000 and 24400 mg/ltg bodyweight, a toxic reaction consisting of tremors was observed 30 minutes after dosing. The tremors decreased over the next 1.5 hours until they were not observed two hours after each dose. From 10000 mg/kg and higher all animals died. At 6000, 7000 and 8000 mg/kg, 6/10, 6/10 and 9/10 animals died. From the above results, a top dosage of 5000 mg/kg bodyweight was chosen for the micronucleus test which, it was indicated, would cause one or two deaths.
RESULTS OF DEFINITIVE STUDY
In this experiment the negative control group gave a mean count of 0.1 micronucleated cells which was within the range for previous unrelated experiments. After administration of test substance at all dosages, the group mean micronucleated cell counts were comparable with the concurrent control value and within the laboratory standard range for negative controls obtained In previous unrelated experiments.
In this experiment the negative control group gave a mean ratio of 1.86 normochromatic to polychromatic cells. After administration of test substance at the highest total dosage of 5000 mg/kg bodyweight, the normochromatic to polychromatic cell ratios were comparable with the concurrent control values. The ratios of the two lower dosages were, therefore, not scored. The positive control group administered intraperitoneally with Mitomycin C gave a group mean ratio of 7.32 normochromatic to polychromatic cells.
At total dosages of 1250 and 2500 mg/kg bodyweight no toxic reactions or mortalities were observed. At a total dosage of 5000 mg/kg bodyweight, a toxic reaction consisting of tremors was observed 30 minutes after dosing. The tremors decreased over the next 1.5 hours until they were not observed two hours after each dose. There were 5 mortalities at this dose level. Advanced visceral autolysis prevented any post mortem examination in all animals. After administration of Mitomycin C, no toxic reactions or mortalities were observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, no evidence of induced chromosomal damage or other damage leading to micronucleus formation was given in polychromatic erythrocytes of treated mice after oral administration of the test substance.
