Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 471 (Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay)
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- The mutagenic potential of 4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl isocyanate was examined in the Salmonella/microsome test. Bacteria of four histidine auxotrophic Salmonella typhimurium LT2 mutant strains (TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, and TA 1537) were exposed to doses up to 12500 µg per plate. The plate incorporation method was used.
- GLP compliance:
- no
- Type of assay:
- bacterial reverse mutation assay

- p-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl isocyanate
- Cas Number:
- 35037-73-1
- Molecular formula:

Method
Species / strain
- Species / strain / cell type:
- S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100
- Additional strain / cell type characteristics:
- other: Firstly, they are deep rough since certain lipopolysaccharide side chains are missing in the bacterial cell wall. Secondly, their reduced ability to repair damage from UV light (e.g. thymidine dimers) allows the phenotypic detection of mutation events
- Metabolic activation:
- with and without
- Metabolic activation system:
- S-9 mix
- Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
- first test: 0, 20, 100, 500, 2500, 12500 µg/plate
repeat: 0, 0.16, 0.8, 4, 20, 100 µg/plate
Controls

Any other information on results incl. tables
Doses up to 4 µg per plate did not cause any bacteriotoxic effects: Total bacteria counts remained unchanged and no growth inhibition was observed. In higher dose ranges the test substance was bacteriotoxic, maily without S-9 mix. Therefore this range could only be used with limitations up to 500 µg/plate. Substance precipitation occurred at the dose of 2500 µg per plate and above.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- There was no evidence for mutagenic effects of 4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl isocyanate with and without S9 mix. A biologically relevant increase of revertant colony numbers over control levels was not observed. Therefore, 4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl isocyanate was considered to be non-mutagenic in the Salmonella/microsome test.
- Executive summary:
The mutagenic potential of 4-trifluoromethoxyphenyl isocyanate was examined in the Salmonella/microsome test. Bacteria of four histidine auxotrophic Salmonella typhimurium LT2 mutant strains (TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, and TA 1537) were exposed to doses up to 12500 µg per plate.
