- METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation)A range finding test was carried out with strain TA 100 with and without metabolic activation at six concentrations of the test substance and one negative control according to a Standard Operating Procedure of Genetic Toxicology. The highest concentration applied was 5000 µg/plate. The five lower concentrations decreased by a factor of three. The plates were inverted and incubated for about 48 hours at 37± 1.5 °C in darkness. Thereafter, they were evaluated by counting the colonies and determining the background lawn. One plate per test substance concentration and negative control was used.NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3
- Statistics:
- A statistical analysis of the test data was not performed. At present the use of statistical methods concerning this particular test system is not generally recommended

- TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS- Precipitation: No precipitates or aggregates were notedADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY: The numbers of revertant colonies were occasionally slightly reduced at the highest concentration of 5000 µg/plate.RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: Six concentrations of test item) ranging from 20.6 to 5000.0 µg/plate were tested with strain Salmonella typhimurium TA 100 to determine the highest concentration to be used in the mutagenicity assay. The experiments were performed with and without metabolic activation. Normal background growth was observed. The numbers of revertant colonies were not reduced. From the results obtained the highest concentration suitable for the mutagenicity test was selected to be 5000.0 µg/plate with and 5000.0 µg/plate without metabolic activation.COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA: Arithmetic Mean and Standard Deviation (SD) of colony counts obtained in 75 separate experiments over the period of January 01, 1993 to December 31, 1993 and acceptable ranges for mean colony counts of spontaneous revenants.ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results: negative
It is concluded that the substance and its metabolites did not induce gene mutations in the strains of Salmonella typhimurium used. - Executive summary:
The substance was tested for mutagenic effects in vitro in histidine-requiring strains of Salmonella typhimurium. The following
strains of Salmonella typhimurium were used: TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535 and TA 1537. The test was performed with and without the addition of rat-liver post mitochondrial supernatant (S9 fraction) as an extrinsic metabolic activation system. The compound was dissolved in bidistilled water and tested at five concentrations in the range of 61.7 to 5000.0 µg/plate in the presence and absence of a
metabolic activation system. In order to confirm the results, the experiments were repeated with and without metabolic activation at five concentrations in the range of 61.7 to 5000.0 µg/plate. Each strain was additionally tested in the presence and in the absence of a metabolic activation system with a suitable, known mutagen as positive control.
In both experiments, performed with and without metabolic activation, none of the tested concentrations of test item led to an increase in the incidence of histidine-prototrophic mutants by comparison with the negative control.
