The presented study is reliable and adequte for the chemical safety assessment of Benzoguanamine.
Executive summary:

In a reverse gene mutation assay in bacteria, Salmonella typhimurium (TA100, TA98,TA1535, TA1537) and E. coli (WP2uvrA)  were exposed to this substance included DMSO at concentrations of 0, 156, 313, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000 µg/plate in the presence and absence of mammalian metabolic activation

 

This substance was tested up to limit concentration 5000µg/plate.  The positive controls did not induce the appropriate responses.  There was no evidence of induced mutant colonies over background.

 

This study satisfies the requirement for Test Guideline  OECD 471and 472 for in vitromutagenicity (bacterial reverse gene mutation) data.
