Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation)

DURATION
- Exposure duration: 72 hours

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3

NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED:
The number of his+ revertants was counted and recorded.

PRELIMINARY TOXICITY DETERMINATION:
To know from which concentration on a compound shows toxicity for the tester strains, before mutagenicity testing, the survival, spontaneous reversion and the inhibition of the background lawn of auxotrophic cells of one of the strains (TA 100) is determined at different concentrations of the compound.
Bacterial cells are exposed to different concentrations of the compound and after incubation the background lawn and the number of spontaneous revertants are examined.
Parallel appropriate (10^-6) dilutions of the cells are plated on NB agar plates and the influence of the compound over the survival of the cells is determined.
Evaluation criteria:
A compound will be considered to be mutagenic if the following criteria are fullfilled: if the his+ revertants of the solvent control lie in the normal range, at least for one strain a dose response effect must exist and the greatest increase of the revertant colonies has to be two times higher than the solvent control. The result has to be reproducible.

Additional information on results:
PRELIMINARY TOXICITY DETERMINATION:
The test compound did not show toxicity up to a concentration of 5000 µg per plate.
Therefore the mutagenicity experiments were performed in a concentration range from 8 µg to 5000 µg (1. experiment) resp. 61.7 µg to 5000 µg (2.experiment) per plate.

MUTAGENICITY EXPERIMENTS:
The controls without mutagen showed a normal number of revertants
The positive controls demonstrated the sensibility of the indicator strains and the activity of the metabolising system. The sterility controls of top agar, S9-mix and test compound showed no growth.
The results of the mutagenicity experiments with the test compound tin (II) methanesulfonate indicate, that in the tested concentration range with and without metabolic activation no significant increase of his+ revertants over the spontaneous values could be detected with the tester strains TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537.
