Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation); preincubation

DURATION
- Preincubation period: 20 minutes
- Exposure duration: 48 hours

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3 plates per strain and dose

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: cloning efficiency; relative total growth
Evaluation criteria:
A reproducible and dose-related increase in mutant counts of at least one strain is considered to be a positive result. For TA 1535, TA 100 and TA 98 this increase should be about twice that of negative controls, whereas for TA 1537, at least a threefold increase should be reached. For TA 102 an increase of about 100 mutants should be reached. Otherwise, the result is evaluated as negative.

Results and discussion

Test results
Species / strain:
other: TA 1535, TA 100, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 102
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Genotoxicity:
negative
Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:
cytotoxicity
Remarks:
at concentrations > 8 µg/plate (strain-specific)
Vehicle controls validity:
valid
Untreated negative controls validity:
not applicable
Positive controls validity:
valid
Additional information on results:
None of the five strains used showed a dose-related and/or biologically relevant increase in mutant counts over those of the negative controls in the plate incorporation test. This applied both to the tests with and without S9 mix and was confirmed by the results of the preincubation trials.
The positive controls increased mutant counts to well over those of the negative controls.

CYTOTOXICITY:
There was no indication of a bacteriotoxic effect of the test substance at doses of up to and including 8 µg/plate. Higher doses had a strong, strain-specific bacteriotoxic effect. Therefore they could only partly be used for assessment purposes up to and including 128 µg/plate.
Remarks on result:
other: all strains/cell types tested

Migrated from field 'Test system'.
