OTHER EXAMINATIONS:

Evaluation criteria:
For valid data, the test article was considered to induce clastogenic events if:
1. A proportion of cells with structural aberrations at one or more concentrations that exceeded the normal range was observed in both replicate cultures
2. A statistically significant increase in the proportion of cells with structural aberrations (excluding gaps) was observed (p < 0.05)
3. There was a concentration-related trend in the proportion of cells with structural aberrations (excluding gaps).
The test article was considered as positive in this assay if all of the above criteria were met.
The test article was considered as negative in this assay if none of the above criteria were met.
Results which only partially satisfied the above criteria were dealt with on a case by case basis. Evidence of a concentration-related effect was considered useful but not essential in the evaluation of a positive result [ ]. Biological relevance was taken into account, for example consistency of response within and between concentrations and/or between experiments, or effects occurring only at high or very toxic concentrations, and the types and distribution of aberrations.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test substance did not induce chromosome aberration in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes in the absence and in the presence of activation system.
Executive summary:

The test substance was tested in an in vitro cytogenetics assay using duplicate human lymphocyte cultures prepared from the pooled blood of three male donors. This study was performed in accordance with OECD Guideline 473 and Good Laboratory Practices.


A range-finding study was performed to select the test article concentrations for chromosome analysis, by evaluating the effect of the test substance on mitotic index. Treatments covering a broad range of concentrations, separated by narrow intervals, were performed both in the absence and presence of metabolic activation (S-9) from Aroclor 1254 induced animals.


In the first experiment, human lymphocyte cultures were treated with the test substance at concentrations of 15.1, 130 and 200 µg/mL in the absence of S9 and 54.9, 130 and 200 µg/mL in the presence of S9. In the second experiment, human lymphocyte cultures were treated with the test substance at concentrations of 125, 150, 175 and 200 µg/mL in the absence of S9 and 140, 160, and 180 µg/mL in the presence of S9.


Appropriate negative (vehicle) control cultures were included in the test system in both experiments under each treatment condition. The proportion of cells with structural aberrations in these cultures fell within current historical vehicle control (normal) ranges. 4-Nitroquinoline 1-oxide (NQO) and cyclophosphamide (CPA) were employed as positive control chemicals in the absence and presence of rat liver S-9 respectively.


Treatment of cells with the test substance in the absence and presence of S-9 in both experiments resulted in frequencies of cells with structural aberrations that were generally similar to those observed in concurrent vehicle control cultures for all concentrations analysed.


The only exception to this was observed in one culture at the lowest concentration (140 µg/mL) analysed in the presence of S-9 in Experiment 2, where the number of aberrant cells (excluding gaps) was markedly higher than the concurrent control values. There was therefore no evidence of reproducibility of this isolated effect between cultures or between experiments and the observation was not considered biologically relevant.


No increases in the total frequency of cells with numerical aberrations, which exceeded the concurrent controls and the normal ranges, were observed in cultures treated with the test substance in the absence and presence of S-9 in Experiments 1 and 2.


Therefore, the test substance did not induce chromosome aberrations in cultured human peripheral blood lymphocytes when tested to the limit of solubility in culture medium both in the absence and the presence of S-9.
