A study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro genotoxic toxicity of the test substance, C12-18 and C18-unsatd. MEA, in a Ames test. Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100 were treated with the test substance using the Ames plate incorporation method at up to five dose levels (4, 20, 100, 500 and 2500 µg/plate test material per plate) both with and without metabolic activation. Under the test conditions, test susbtance was found to be non-mutagenic (Wallat, 1981).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Under the study conditions, test susbtance was considered to be non-mutagenic in an in vitro Ames test.
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to evaluate the in vitro genotoxic toxicity of read across substance, C12-18 and C18-unsatd. MEA, in the Ames test. Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100 were treated with the read across substance using the Ames plate incorporation method at up to five dose levels (4, 20, 100, 500 and 2500 µg/plate test material per plate) both with and without metabolic activation. Under the test conditions, the test substance was found to be non-mutagenic (Wallat, 1981).
