DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: relative total growth - Evaluation criteria:
- There are several criteria for determining a positive result. Any, one, or all of the following can be used to determine the overall result of the study:
1. A dose-related increase in mutant frequency over the dose range tested (De Serres and Shelby (1979)).
2. A reproducible increase at one or more concentrations.
3. Biological relevance against in-house historical control ranges.
4. Statistical analysis of data as determined by UKEMS (Mahon et al (1989)).
5. Fold increase greater than two times the concurrent solvent control for any tester strain (especially if accompanied by an out-of-historical range response).
A test item will be considered non-mutagenic (negative) in the test system if the above criteria are not met.
Although most experiments will give clear positive or negative results, in some instances the data generated will prohibit making a definite judgement about test item activity. Results of this type will be reported as equivocal.

- TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Precipitation: No test item precipitate was observed on the plates at any of the doses tested in either the presence or absence of S9-mix.
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
The test item was toxic at 5000 μg/plate to the strains of bacteria used (TA100 and WP2uvrA). The test item formulation and S9-mix used in this experiment were both shown to be sterile.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY
In the range-finding test (plate incorporation method) the test item caused a visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawns of all of the tester strains, initially at 1500 μg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix. In the main test (pre-incubation method) the test item induced a much greater toxic response with weakened bacterial background lawns initially noted from 15 and 150 μg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix respectively. The sensitivity of the tester strains to the toxicity of the test item varied between strain type, exposures with or without S9-mix and experimental methodology. The test item was tested up to either the maximum recommended dose level of 5000 μg/plate or the toxic limit, depending on experimental methodology.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The substance is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and the E.coly assay performed according to OECD guideline 471.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP compliant study, in accordance with OECD guideline 471, the test substance was examined for its possible mutagenic activity using a the bacterial reverse mutation test. Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100 and Escherichia coli strain WP2uvrA were treated with the test substance using both the Ames plate incorporation and pre-incubation methods at up to seven dose levels, in triplicate, both with and without the addition of a rat liver homogenate metabolising system. The dose range for the range-finding test was determined in a preliminary toxicity assay and was 15 to 5000 μg/plate. The experiment was repeated on a separate day (pre-incubation method) using doses ranging between 0.15 and 5000 μg/plate. The sensitivity of the assay and the efficacy of the S9-mix were validated with negative and positive control plates. In the range-finding test (plate incorporation method) the test item caused a visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawns of all of the tester strains, initially at 1500 μg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix. In the main test (pre-incubation method) the test item induced a much greater toxic response with weakened bacterial background lawns initially noted from 15 and 150 μg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix respectively. The sensitivity of the tester strains to the toxicity of the test item varied between strain type, exposures with or without S9-mix and experimental methodology. The test item was tested up to either the maximum recommended dose level of 5000 μg/plate or the toxic limit, depending on experimental methodology. No test item precipitate was observed on the plates at any of the doses tested in either the presence or absence of S9-mix. No significant increases in the frequency of revertant colonies were recorded for any of the bacterial strains, with any dose of the test item, either with or without metabolic activation or exposure method. The test item was therefore considered to be non-mutagenic under the conditions of the test.
