- Metabolic activation system:
- Cofactor-supplemented liver S9 microsomal fraction was used as an exogenous metabolic activation. The S9 fraction was obtained from the liver of an Aroclor 1254-induced rat. The protein concentration in the S9 fraction was 36.2 mg/mL. Each batch of S9 mix was tested with 2-Aminoanthracene as well as benzo (a) pyrene for its efficiency. The cofactor contained D-glucose-6-phosphate (0.8 g), beta-NADP(1.75 g), MgCl2(1 g), KCl(1.35 g), NaHPO4(6.4 g), NaH2PO4.H20(1.4 g) in 500ml of Distilled water.
- Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
- Test concentrations:
Experiment 1: 0.0 (NC), 0.0(VC), 0.002, 0.005, 0.016, 0.050 and 0.158 mg/plate
Experiment 2: Additional testing at 0.501 mg/plate along with negative and vehicle controls.
Justification: In the preliminary cytotoxicity experiment, the test substance was assessed at the concentration range of 0.002 – 5 mg/plate based on the results of the solubility and precipitation test. This pre-experiment was performed with TA 98 and TA 100 strains both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation.
Both in TA 98 and TA 100, complete toxicity was observed at treated concentrations 5 (T8) and 1.582 (T7) mg/plate concentration. At 0.501 (T6) mg/plate, a reduction in colony count and diminution of the background lawn were observed in TA 98 and TA 100 strains. There was no reduction in colony count or inhibition of the background lawn growth from 0.002 (T1) mg/plate up to 0.158 (T5) mg/plate in both TA 98 and TA100 stains either in the absence or presence of the metabolic activation system. The concentrations used in the experiment (pre-experiment, Trial I, and Trial-II) were placed with (√10) half log intervals. - Vehicle / solvent:

METHODS FOR MEASUREMENTS OF GENOTOXICIY
: The colonies were counted manually - Evaluation criteria:
- A test item was considered as 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 vehicle/solvent control was observed.

- Microsoft Office Excel-based calculation was used for descriptive statistical analysis.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The registered substance, 2,2,2-Trichloro-1-phenylethyl acetate (CAS No. 90-17-5) was tested non-mutagenic (negative) both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation in an bacterial gene mutation study using Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1535 and TA1537 strains. The test was performed according to OECD TG 471 and GLP.
- Executive summary:
The mutagenic potential of the test substance, 2,2,2-Trichloro-1-phenylethyl acetate (CAS No. 90 -17 -5, E.C. no.: 201-972-0) has been tested on Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, TA100 and TA102. The test was performed according to OECD 471, adopted on July 21, 1997. The test was performed using the plate incorporation method (Trial I, Experiment I-II) and the preincubation method (Trial II, Experiment I-II) both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. Test concentrations were selected based on the result of a preliminary cytotoxicity test with strains TA98 and TA100. In the pre-test, eight concentrations of the test substance, i.e., 0.0 (NC), 0.0 (VC), 0.002, 0.005, 0.016, 0.050, 0.158, 0.501, 1.582 and 5 mg/plate were tested in triplicates. Complete cytotoxicity was observed at 5 and 1.582 mg/plate in strains TA98 and TA100, both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. At 0.501mg/plate, cytotoxicity demonstrated as a reduction in colony count and diminution in background lawn was noted with and without metabolic activation in TA98 and TA100 strains. There was no reduction in colony count or background lawn growth inhibition from 0.002 mg/plate to 0.158 mg/plate in both TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. Based on the results of the pre-experiment, the following doses were selected for the main study trials: Experiment 1: 0.0(NC), 0.0(VC), 0.002, 0.005, 0.016, 0.050 and 0.158 mg/plate, both in the presence (+S9) and absence (-S9) of metabolic activation. In Experiment 2: Additional testing at 0.501mg/plate along with 0.0(NC), 00(VC) and positive controls, both in presence (+S9) and absence (-S9) metabolic activation. The concentrations used in the experiment were spaced with (√10) half-log intervals. The bacterial strains were exposed to the test substance for 48 hours at 37 ± 2⁰C. The colonies were counted manually. The mean values of plates for each concentration, together with the standard deviation, were compared to the spontaneous reversion rates. Microsoft Office Excel-based calculation was used for descriptive statistical analysis. No significant increase in the revertant colony numbers of any of the tester strains was observed after the treatment with 2,2,2 -Trichloro-1 -phenylethyl acetate (CAS No. 90 -17 -5) at different dose concentrations in Experiment 1 and Experiment 2, both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation (S9 mix). The positive controls produced an expected increase in the number of revertant colonies, thus confirming the validity of the assay. Hence, the test substance 2,2,2 -Trichloro-1 -phenylethyl acetate (CAS No. 90 -17 -5) did not induce gene mutation within the histidine operon in Salmonella tryphimurium tester strains in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. The test was performed according to OECD TG 471 and GLP. The study was considered reliable without restrictions (Klimisch 1).
