OTHER: prior to and following chemical cosmetic ingredient exposure, plate counts were done to determine precentage survival of colony-forming units per complete growth medium plates.
Evaluation criteria:
The cosmetic ingredient was considered mutagenic if there was a significant increase (a reproducible dose related increase in the number of revertant colonies) in the number of colonies on the plate compared with both the nontreated and cosmetic ingredient treated plates. Colonies with a diameter of more than 0.2 mm were counted.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative with and without

The test compound D & C yellow no 10 did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium LT2 - hisTA98, hisTA100, hisTA1535, hisTA1537, and hisTA1538 in the spot test performed and hence is negative for mutation in vitro.
Executive summary:

Spot test was performed to determine the mutagenic potential of the test compound D & C yellow no 10.

 

Following cosmetic ingredient treatment of the individualSalmonellastrains, the strains were plated on Vogel Bonner Medium E minimal agar plates and incubated for 48 hr at 37°C. The toxicity of the cosmetic ingredient was evidenced by either a clearing of the bacterial lawns (the reduction of colony counts below the range of spontaneous revertants) or the appearance of pinpoint his colonies.Prior to and following chemical cosmetic ingredient exposure, plate counts were done to determine percentage survival of colony-forming units per complete growth medium plates.The cosmetic ingredient was considered mutagenic if there was a significant increase (a reproducible dose related increase in the number of revertant colonies) in the number of colonies on the plate compared with both the nontreated and cosmetic ingredient treated plates. Colonies with a diameter of more than 0.2 mm were counted.

 

The test compoundD & C yellow no 10 did not induce mutation in theSalmonella typhimuriumLT2 - hisTA98, hisTA100, hisTA1535, hisTA1537, and hisTA1538 in the spot test performed and hence is negative for mutation in vitro.
