Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The substance C.I. Acid blue 74 is considered to be not mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100 with and without metabolic activation.

Executive summary:

Gene mutation toxicity study was performed to evaluate mutagenicity of C.I. Acid blue 74 by the standard plate-incorporation assay.The study was performed using S.typhimurium strain TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100. All strain were tested at dose levels of 0, 3333, 1000, 6666 and 10000 µg/plate both with and without metabolic activation (Aroclor 1254-induced male Fischer). Positive control and solvent control as used. There was no dose-related increase in the number of revertants above spontaneous solvent controls, with a 2-fold increase for strains TA1535, TA1538, TA98 and TA100, and a 3-fold increase for TA1537. Hence, the substance C.I. Acid blue 74 is considered to be not mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium strain TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100 with and without metabolic activation.
