- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- CHARACTERISATION
- Bacterial strain cultures were obtained from Trinova Biochem GmbH (35394 Giessen, Germany)
- Regular checking of the properties of the strains was performed with respect to membrane permeability, ampicillin and tetracycline resistance, and spontaneous mutation rates.
STORAGE
- Strain cultures were stored as stock cultures in ampoules with nutrient broth + 5 % DMSO (Merck, D-64293 Darmstadt) in liquid nitrogen.
PRE-CULTURES
- From thawed ampoules of the strains, 0.5 mL bacterial suspension was transferred into 250 mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing 20 mL nutrient medium.
- A solution of 20 μL ampicillin (25 μg/mL) was added to the strains TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102.
- 20 μL tetracycline (2 μg/mL) was also added to strain TA 102.
- The nutrient medium contained 8g/L Merck Nutrient Broth and 5 g/L sodium chloride.
- Bacterial cultures were incubated in a shaking water bath for 4 hours at 37 ºC.
AGAR
- Plates with minimal agar were obtained from E Merck, D-64293 Darmstadt.
- Overlay agar (Merck, D-64293 Darmstadt) contained 6.0 g/L Merck Agar, 6.0 g/L sodium chloride, 10.5 mg/L L-histidine x HCl x water and 12.2 mg/L Biotin.
- Sterilisations were performed at 121 ºC in an autoclave.
MAMMALIAN MICROSOMAL FRACTION S9 MIX
- S9 was prepared from 8-12 week old male Wistar Hanlbm rats (220-320 g) induced by applications of 80 mg/kg bw phenobarbital i.p. (Destin, D-22335 Hamburg) and beta-naphthoflavone p.o. (Aldrich, D-89555 Steinheim) on three consecutive days.
- Livers were prepared 24 hours after the last treatment.
- S9 fractions were produced by dilution of the liver homogenate with potassium chloride solution (1+3) followed by centrifugation at 9000 g.
- Aliquots of the supernatant were frozen and stored in ampoules at minus 80 ºC.
- Small numbers of ampoules were kept at minus 20 ºC for up to one week.
- Protein concentration in the S9 preparation was 29.0 mg/mL (lot number R 230404).
S9 MIX
- An appropriate quantity of S9 supernatant was thawed and mixed with S9 co-factor solution.
- The amount of S9 supernatant was 15 % v/v in the S9 mix.
- Co-factor concentrations in the S9 mix were 8mM (magnesium chloride), 33 mM (potassium chloride), 5 mM (glucose-6-phosphate), 5 mM (NADP) in 100 mM sodium orthophosphate buffer (pH 7.4).
- During the experiment, the S9 mix was stored in an ice bath.
PRE-EXPERIMENT FOR TOXICITY
- Eight concentrations of TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 were tested in triplicate for toxicity and mutation induction.
- Experimental conditions were identical to those of experiment I.
EXPERIMENTAL PERFORMANCE
- The following materials were mixed in a test tube and poured onto the selective agar plates:
- 100 μL test solution at each dose level, solvent (negative control) or reference mutagen solution (positive control).
- 500 μL S9 mix (for test with metabolic activation) or S9 mix substitution buffer (for test without metabolic activation).
- 100 μL bacterial suspension
- 2000 μL overlay agar.
- In the pre-incubation assay, 100 μL test solution, solvent (50 μL in strains TA 100 and TA 102) and positive control, 500 μL S9 mix / S9 mix substitution buffer and 100 μL bacterial suspension were mixed in a test tube and incubated at 37 ºC for 60 minutes.
- After pre-incubation, 2.0 mL overlay agar (45 ºC) was added to each tube and the mixture was poured onto minimal agar plates.
- After solidification, the plates were incubated upside down for at least 48 hours at 37 ºC in the dark.
DATA RECORDING
- Colonies were counted using the AUTOCOUNT (Artek Systems Corporation, BIOSYS GmbH, D-61184 Karben).
- The counter was connected to an IBM AT compatible PC with printer, which provided the individual and mean values of the plates for each concentration together with standard deviations and enhancement factors as compared to the spontaneous reversion rates.
- Due to the reduced background growth of the test item, colonies were counted manually at higher concentrations. - Evaluation criteria:
- CRITERIA FOR ACCEPTABILITY OF THE ASSAY
- Regular background growth in the negative and solvent control.
- Spontaneous reversion rates in the negative and solvent control are in the range of historical data.
- Positive control substances produce a significant increase in mutant colony frequencies.
EVALUATION OF RESULTS
- A test item is considered a mutagen if a biologically relevant increase in the number of revertants exceeding the threshold of twice (strains TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102) or thrice (strains TA 1535 and TA 1537) the colony count of the corresponding solvent control is observed.
- A dose dependent increase is considered biologically relevant if the threshold is exceeded at more than one concentration.
- An increase exceeding the threshold at only one concentration is judged as biologically relevant if reproduced in a second independent experiment.
- A dose dependent increase in the number of revertant colonies below the threshold is regarded as an indication of a mutagenic potential if reproduced in an independent second experiment. However, whenever the colony counts remain within the historical range of negative and solvent controls, such an increase is not considered biologically relevant. - Statistics:
- - Statistical analysis of the data was not required.

- Additional information on results:
- - Results tables and historical control data are presented in the report annex (attached).
- Plates incubated with the test item showed reduced background growth at higher concentrations with and without S9 mix in all strains used.
- No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of any of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with the test material at any concentration level (with or without the presence of S9 mix).
- There was no tendency to higher mutation rates with increasing concentration in the range below the generally acknowledged border of biological relevance.
- In experiment II, the data in the negative control of strain TA 102 was slightly above the historical control range. However, the deviation was small and the effect was considered to be based on biologically irrelevant fluctuations in the number of colonies.
- Appropriate reference mutagens were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase in induced revertant colonies.
- The historical range of positive controls was exceeded in strains TA 1535 (experiment I) and TA 100 (experiment II) without metabolic activation and in strain TA 1537 (experiment I) with metabolic activation but this effect was considered to indicate the sensitivity of the strains rather than assay compromise. - Remarks on result:
