- METHOD OF APPLICATION:
A standard plate test and a preincubation test were conducted, both with and without metabolic activation (S9 mix). Each test was conducted in triplicates.
STANDARD PLATE TEST:
The experimental procedure of the standard plate test (plate incorporation method) is based on the method of Ames et al. (Mut. Res. 31: 347-364, 1975) and Maron and Ames (Mut. Res. 113: 173-215, 1983)
Salmonella typhimurium:
Test tubes containing 2-mL portions of soft agar (overlay agar), which consists of 100 mL agar (0.8% [w/v] agar + 0.6% [w/v] NaCl) and 10 mL amino acid solution (minimal amino acid solution for the determination of mutants: 0.5 mM histidine + 0.5 mM biotin) are kept in a water bath at about 42-45°C, and the remaining components are added in the following order:
0.1 mL test solution or vehicle (negative control)
0.1 mL fresh bacterial culture
0.5 mL S9 mix (with metabolic activation)
or
0.5 mL phosphate buffer (without metabolic activation).
After mixing, the samples are poured onto Vogel-Bonner agar plates (minimal glucose agar plates) within approx. 30 seconds.
Composition of the minimal glucose agar:
980 mL purified water
20 mL Vogel-Bonner E medium
15 g Difco bacto agar
20 g D-glucose, monohydrate.
After incubation at 37°C for 48 – 72 hours in the dark, the bacterial colonies (his+ revertants) are counted.
Escherichia coli:
Test tubes containing 2-mL portions of soft agar (overlay agar), which consists of 100 mL agar (0.8% [w/v] agar + 0.6% [w/v] NaCl) and 10 mL amino acid solution (minimal amino acid solution for the determination of mutants: 0.5 mM tryptophan) are kept in a water bath at about 42 - 45°C, and the remaining components are added in the following order:
0.1 mL test solution or vehicle (negative control)
0.1 mL fresh bacterial culture
0.5 mL S9 mix (with metabolic activation)
or
0.5 mL phosphate buffer (without metabolic activation).
After mixing, the samples are poured onto minimal agar plates within approx. 30 seconds.
The composition of the minimal agar (SA1 selective agar) is based on the description of Green, M.H.L. and Muriel, W.J. (Mut. Res. 38: 3-32, 1976), with the exception of solution E (tryptophan solution), which has previously been added to the soft agar:
300 mL solution B (agar)
100 mL solution A (saline solution)
8 mL solution C (glucose solution)
10 mL solution D (casein solution)
After incubation at 37°C for 48 - 72 hours in the dark, the bacterial colonies (trp+ revertants) are counted.
PREINCUBATION TEST:
The experimental procedure is based on the method described by Yahagi et al. (Mut. Res. 48: 121-130, 1977) and Matsushima et al. (Factors modulating mutagenicity in microbial tests. In: Norpoth, K.H. and R.C. Garner, Short-Term Test Systems for Detecting Carcinogens. Springer Verlag Berlin, Heidelberg, New York, 1980):
0.1 mL test solution or vehicle, 0.1 mL bacterial suspension and 0.5 mL S9 mix (with metabolic activation) or phosphate buffer (without metabolic activation) are incubated at 37°C for the duration of about 20 minutes using a shaker. Subsequently, 2 mL of soft agar is added and, after mixing, the samples are poured onto the agar plates within approx. 30 seconds.
After incubation at 37°C for 48 - 72 hours in the dark, the bacterial colonies are counted.
CONTROLS:
Negative control:
Parallel with each experiment with and without S9-mix, negative controls (solvent control, sterility control) were carried out for each tester strain in order to determine the spontaneous mutation rate.
Positive controls:
The following positive control substances were used to check the mutability of the bacteria and the activity of the S9-mix. With S9 mix: 2-aminoanthracene, 2-AA (2.5 µg/plate for all 4 Salmonella strains, 60 µg/plate for E. coli strain); without S9 mix: N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine, MNNG (5 µg/plate for TA 1535 and TA100); 4-nitro-o-phenylenediamine, NOPD (10 µg/plate for TA 98), 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide, 9-Aminoacridine, AAC (100 µg/plate for TA 1537), 4-NQO (5 µg/plate for E. coli WP2 uvrA).
TITER DETERMINATION:
The titer was determined only in the experimental parts with S9 mix both for the negative controls (vehicle only) and for the two highest doses in all experiments.
In the standard plate test, 0.1 mL of the overnight cultures is diluted to 10E-6 in each case. Test tubes containing 2 mL portions of soft agar containing maximal amino acid solution (5 mM tryptophan or 5 mM histidine + 0.5 mM biotin) are kept in a water bath at about 42 - 45°C, and the remaining components are added in the following order:
0.1 mL vehicle (without and with test substance)
0.1 mL fresh bacterial culture (dilution: 10E-6)
0.5 mL S9 mix
In the preincubation test, 0.1 mL of the overnight cultures is diluted to 10E-6 in each case. 0.1 mL vehicle (with and without test substance), 0.1 mL bacterial suspension and 0.5 mL S9 mix are incubated at 37°C for about 20 minutes using a shaker. Subsequently, 2 mL of soft agar containing maximal amino acid solution for titer determination (5 mM tryptophan or 5 mM histidine + 0.5 mM biotin) is added.
After mixing, the samples are poured onto the agar plates within approx. 30 seconds. After incubation at 37°C for 48 - 72 hours in the dark, the bacterial colonies are counted. - Evaluation criteria:
- Assessment criteria:
The test chemical is considered positive in this assay if the following criteria are met:
A dose-related and reproducible increase in the number of revertant colonies, i.e. about doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate in at least one tester strain either without S9 mix or after adding a metabolizing system.
A test substance is generally considered non-mutagenic in this test if the number of revertants for all tester strains are within the historical negative control range under all experimental conditions in at least two experiments carried out independently of each other.
Acceptance criteria:
Generally, the experiment is considered valid if the following criteria are met:
- The number of revertant colonies in the negative controls is within the range of the historical negative control data for each tester strain.
- The sterility control reveales no indication of bacterial contamination.
- The positive control substances both with and without S9 mix induce a distinct increase in the number of revertant colonies within the range of the historical positive control data or above.
- The titer of viable bacteria is >= 10E+8/mL.
