DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
-Method: plates were assessed for numbers of revertant colonies and examined for effects on the growth of the bacterial background lawn. - Evaluation criteria:
- Acceptance Criteria:
The reverse mutation assay may be considered valid if the following criteria are met:
All bacterial strains must have demonstrated the required characteristics as determined by their respective strain checks according to Ames et al (1975), Maron and Ames (1983) and Mortelmans and Zeiger (2000). All tester strain cultures should exhibit a characteristic number of spontaneous revertants per plate in the vehicle and untreated controls. Combined historical negative and solvent control ranges for 2009 and 2010 are presented in Appendix 3. All tester strain cultures should be in the range of 0.9 to 9 x 109 bacteria per ml. Diagnostic mutagens (positive control chemicals) must be included to demonstrate both the intrinsic sensitivity of the tester strains to mutagen exposure and the integrity of the S9-mix. All of the positive control chemicals used in the study should induce marked increases in the frequency of revertant colonies, both with or without metabolic activation. The historical ranges of the positive controls for 2009 and 2010 are presented in Appendix 3. There should be a minimum of four non-toxic test item dose levels. There should be no evidence of excessive contamination.
Evaluation Criteria:
There are several criteria for determining a positive result. Any, one, or all of the following can be used to determine the overall result of the study:
1. A dose-related increase in mutant frequency over the dose range tested (De Serres and Shelby (1979)).
2. A reproducible increase at one or more concentrations.
3. Biological relevance against in-house historical control ranges.
4. Statistical analysis of data as determined by UKEMS (Mahon et al (1989)).
5. Fold increase greater than two times the concurrent solvent control for any tester strain (especially if accompanied by an out of historical range response).
A test item will be considered non-mutagenic (negative) in the test system if the above criteria are not met. - Statistics:

- Precipitation: A substance precipitate (oily in appearance) was observed at 5000 µg/plate. This observation did not prevent the scoring of revertant colonies.
STERILITY, VEHICLE AND POSITIVE CONTROL DATA:
- Prior to use, the master strains were checked for characteristics, viability and spontaneous reversion rate (all were found to be satisfactory). These data are not given in the report. The amino acid supplemented top agar and S9 mix used in both experiments was shown to be sterile. There was also no evidence of excessive contamination. The culture density for each bacterial strain used in each experiment was also checked and considered acceptable.
Results for the negative controls (spontaneous mutation rates) are presented in Table 1 and were considered to be acceptable. These data are for concurrent untreated control plates performed on the same day as the Mutation Test.
The individual plate counts, the mean number of revertant colonies and the standard deviations, for the test item, positive and vehicle controls, both with and without metabolic activation, are presented in Table 2 and Table 3 for Experiment 1 and Table 4 and Table 5 for Experiment 2. The results are also expressed graphically in Figure 1 to Figure 4.
Information regarding the equipment and methods used in these experiments as required by the Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry and Japanese Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare are presented in Appendix 1.
Any other information on results incl. tables
The test item was non-toxic to the strains of bacteria used (TA100 and WP2uvrA). The test item formulation and S9-mix used in this experiment were both shown to be sterile.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The substance is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay performed according to OECD 471.
- Executive summary:
The in vitro gene mutation study was conducted according to OECD TG 471 and GLP principles. Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100 and Escherichia coli strain WP2uvrA were treated with the substance, using both the Ames plate incorporation and pre-incubation methods at up to seven dose levels, in triplicate, both with and without the addition of a rat liver homogenate metabolising system (10% liver S9 in standard co-factors). The dose range for the range-finding test was determined in a preliminary toxicity assay and ranged between 5 and 5000 µg/plate, depending on bacterial strain type and presence or absence of S9-mix. The experiment was repeated on a separate day (pre-incubation method) using a similar dose range to the range-finding test, fresh cultures of the bacterial strains and fresh substance formulations. Additional dose levels and an expanded dose range were selected in order to achieve both four non-toxic dose levels and the toxic limit of the substance.
The vehicle (dimethyl formamide) control plates gave counts of revertant colonies within the normal range. All of the positive control chemicals used in the test induced marked increases in the frequency of revertant colonies, both with or without metabolic activation. Thus, the sensitivity of the assay and the efficacy of the S9-mix were validated. A substance precipitate (oily in appearance) was observed at 5000 µg/plate. This observation did not prevent the scoring of revertant colonies. In the range-finding test (plate incorporation methodology), the substance caused a substantial reduction in the frequency of revertant colonies of bacterial strains TA1535, TA98 and TA1537 (presence and absence of S9-mix) and WP2uvrA (absence of S9-mix only), initially from 500 µg/plate. These responses were not accompanied by any visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawns. No toxicity was noted for bacterial strains TA100 (absence and presence of S9-mix) or WP2uvrA (presence of S9-mix). In the main test (pre-incubation methodology), the substance caused both a substantial reduction in the frequency of revertant colonies and/or a visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawns of all of the tester strains except WP2uvrA (presence of S9-mix). Weakened bacterial background lawns were initially noted at 50 µg/plate for TA1535 and TA1537 (absence of S9-mix). The sensitivity of the bacterial tester strains to the toxicity of the substance varied between strain type, exposures with or without S9-mix and experimental methodology. A substance precipitate (oily in appearance) was observed at 5000 µg/plate. This observation did not prevent the scoring of revertant colonies. No significant increases in the frequency of revertant colonies were recorded for any of the bacterial strains, with any dose of the substance, either with or without metabolic activation or exposure method.
The substance was considered to be non-mutagenic under the conditions of this test.
