Rationale for test conditions:
No data
Evaluation criteria:
The plates werwe observed for a dose dependent increase in the number of revertants/plate.

Evaluations were made at both the individual trial and chemical levels. Individual trials were judged mutagenic (+), weakly mutagenic (+ W), questionable (?),
or nonmutagenic (-), depending on the magnitude of the increase in his+ revertants, and the shape of the dose response. A trial was considered questionable (?) if the dose-response was judged insufficiently high to support a call of “+ W”, if only a single dose was elevated over the control, or if a weak increase was not dose-related.

A chemical was judged mutagenic (+) or weakly mutagenic (+W) if it produced a reproducible, dose-related response over the solvent control, under a single metabolic activation condition, in replicate trials. A chemical was judged questionable (?) if the results of individual trials were not reproducible, if increases in his+ revertants did not meet the criteria for a “+W” response, or if only single doses produced increases in hisf revertants in repeat trials.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: Pigment Red 81 was run initially in a toxicity assay to determine the appropriate dose range for the mutagenicity assay. The toxicity assay was performed using TA100 or the system developed by Waleh et al. Toxic concentrations were defined as those that produced a decrease in the number of his+ colonies, or a clearing in the density of the background lawn, or both.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Pigment Red 81 is negative in the preincubation assay on the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA 97 and TA98 with and without rat liver S9 and hamster liver S9 as the metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classsify as a gene mutant in vitro.
Executive summary:

Gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of C.I. Pigment Red 81. The study was performed using Salmonella typhimurium strains  TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA 97 and TA98 with and without rat liver S9 and hamster liver S9 as the metabolic activation system. Preicubation assay was performed at dose levels of 0, 100, 333, 1000, 3333 or 10000 µg/plate. The plates were preincubated for 20 mins following an exporession duration of 48 hrs. The plates werwe observed for a dose dependent increase in the number of revertants/plate. Pigment Red 81 is negative in the preincubation assay on the Salmonella typhimurium strains  TA100, TA1535, TA1537, TA 97 and TA98 with and without rat liver S9 and hamster liver S9 as the metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classsify as a gene mutant in vitro.
