Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): negativeThe substance was tested for in vivo genotixicity following in vivo test OECD 474. Under the experimental conditions the P/N is not significantly changed.
Executive summary:

The substance was tested for in vivo genotixicity following in vivo test OECD 474. Mice were orally dosed at 400 mg/kg (maximum tolerated dose) and sacrified at 24, 48 and 72h. No apparent citotoxicity was observed and the P/N was not significantly changed.
