- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- PREINCUBATION PROTOCOL
- Test tube containing a suspension of one strain of Salmonella typhimurium plus S9 mix or plain buffer without S9
- Incubation for 20 minutes at 37º C with the test chemical
- Control cultures, with all the same ingredients except the test chemical, are also incubated
- In addition, positive control cultures are prepared (containing the particular bacterial tester strain under investigation, the various culture ingredients, and a known potent mutagen)
- After 20 minutes, agar is added to the cultures and the contents of the tubes are thoroughly mixed
- Then the mixture is poured onto the surface of Petri dishes containing standard bacterial culture medium
- The plates are incubated, and bacterial colonies that do not require an excess of supplemental histidine appear and grow
- These colonies are comprised of bacteria that have undergone reverse mutation to restore function of the histidine-manufacturing gene
- The number of colonies is usually counted after 2 days. - Evaluation criteria:
- - Spontaneous mutations (those that occur by chance, not by chemical treatment) will appear as colonies on the control petri dishes.
- If the test chemical was mutagenic to any particular strain of bacterium, the number of histidine-independent colonies arising on those plates will be significantly greater than the corresponding control plates for that strain of bacteria.
- The positive control plates are also counted, and the number of mutant colonies appearing on them must be significantly increased over the spontaneous control number for the test to be considered valid.
- Failure of the positive control chemical to induce mutation is reason to discard the experiment. - Statistics:
- - No data given, according to OECD TG statistics are not obligate for conduction of the Ames-Test.
- However, mean values and standard errors are given in the results table

- Additional information on results:
- - Precipates observed onwards from 1000 µg/plate
- One replicate of TA 100 w/o activation resulted in equivocal results and was repeated twice with negative results
- One replicate of TA 98 w/ Hamster S9@30% was equivocal (weakly positive). However, a follow-up experiment applying identical conditions was negative, as well as all other TA98 experiments w/ an w/o S9. - Remarks on result:
- other: all strains/cell types tested
- Remarks:
- Migrated from field 'Test system'.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative with and without metabolic activation
Based on the results of this NTP-study, phenothiazine is non-mutagenic in the Salmonella mutagenicity assay (Ames test) when tested with and without metabolic activation using several Salmonella strains. Tests were conducted up to precipitating concentrations. - Executive summary:
Phenothiazine was tested in 6 different concentrations up to 10000 µg/plate. Precipitation was observed onward 1000 µg/plate. Six different Salmonella strains (TA 97, TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 104 and TA 1535) were used for testing. Based on the results of this NTP-study, phenothiazine is non-mutagenic in the Salmonella mutagenicity assay (Ames test) when tested with and without metabolic activation.
