- Rationale for test conditions:

- Evaluation criteria:
- Definitions:
The assessment of test material-induced effects is dependent on the number of spontaneous revertants of each bacterial strain (solvent controls) and the in-crease in the number of revertants at the test material concentration which shows the highest number of colonies. The following criteria, based upon the historical controls of the laboratory and statistical considerations, are established:
Mean Number of Colonies Maximal Mean Number of Colonies over the Actual
(Solvent Control) Solvent Control
(Test Material)
<=10 <=9 >=30
<=30 <=19 >= 40
<=80 <=29 >=80
<=200 <=49 >=120
<=500 <=79 >=200
Assessment: "No Increase" "Clear Increase"
All further results, ranging between "no" and "clear", are assessed as "weak in-creases".
Interpretations:
A test material is defined as non-mutagenic in this assay if
• "no" or "weak increases" occur in the first and second series of the main ex¬periment. ("Weak increases" randomly occur due to experimental variation.)
A test material is defined as mutagenic in this assay if
• a dose-related (over at least two test material concentrations) increase in the number of revertants is induced, the maximal effect is a "clear increase", and the effects are reproduced at similar concentration levels in the same test system;
• "clear increases" occur at least at one test material concentration, higher concentrations show strong precipitation or cytotoxicity, and the effects are reproduced at the same concentration level in the same test system.
In all further cases, a third test series with the bacterial strain in question should be performed. If the criteria for a positive test result are not fulfilled in at least two out of the three series, the test material is defined as being non-mutagenic in this test system. - Statistics:

The investigations for the mutagenic potential of the test item were performed using Salmonella typhimurium tester strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 1535 and TA 1537, and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA. The plate incorporation test with and without addition of liver S9 mix from Aroclor 1254-pretreated rats was used. Thwo independent series were performed without metabolic activation. Three independent experimental series were performed with S9 mix as the metabolic activation system. In the three series with S9 mix, 10 % S9 in the S9 mix were used in the 1st and 30 % in the 2nd and 3rd series, respectively.
The test item was dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and tested at concentrations ranging from 5.00 to 5000 µg/plate. Precipitation of the test material on the agar plates occurred at con-centrations ≥ 500 µg/plate. Toxicity to the bacteria was observed at concentrations ≥ 889 µg/plate.
Daunomycin, sodium azide, 9-aminoacridine, 4-nitroquinolin-N-oxide and cumene hydroperoxide served as strain specific positive control test materials in the absence of S9 mix. 2-Aminoanthracene and benzo[a]pyrene were used for testing the bacteria and the activity of the S9 mix. Each treatment with the test materials used as positive controls led to a clear increase in revertant colonies, thus, showing the expected reversion properties of all strains and good meta-bolic activity of the S9 mix used.
Without addition of S9 mix and with addition of S9 mix containing 10% S9 as the external metabolizing system,the test item was not mutagenic under the conditions described. After addition of S9 mix containing 30% S9 in the 2nd and 3rd series as the external metabolizing system, Art. 132720 induced an increase in the number of revertants at concentrations ≥ 1500 µg per plate, i.e. in the precipitated concentration range only.
It can be concluded that after metabolic activation, the test item was mutagenic to bacteria under the experimental conditions described. These effects, however, occurred in the precipitated concentration range only.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on all this data, the test item was positive in this bacterial mutagenicity assay.
The test item was negative in the Ames test without metabolic activation and with metabolic activation when S9 mix containing 10% S9 was used as the metabolic activation system. However, the test item was mutagenic to bacteria in case S9 mix containing 30% S9 was used as the metabolic activation system. - Executive summary:
The test item was negative in the Ames test without metabolic activation and with metabolic activation when S9 mix containing 10% S9 was used as the metabolic activation system. However, the test item was mutagenic to bacteria in case S9 mix containing 30% S9 was used as the metabolic activation system.
Taking together, the test item was positive in this bacterial mutagenicity assay.
