Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
S9 produced from the livers of male Sprague-Dawley rats which were treated with 500 mg Aroclor 1254/kg body weight ip (Trinova Biochem. Gießen (Batch no. 3067)
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
exp 1: 0.050, 0.150, 0.500, 1.500 and 5.000 mg/plate.
exp 2 (TA 100 and TA 102): 0.047, 0.094, 0.188, 0.375, 0.750 and 1.500 mg/plate
exp 3 (TA97a, TA 98 and TA 1535): 0.047, 0.094, 0.188, 0.375, 0.750 and 1.500 mg/plate
Vehicle / solvent:
- Vehicle used: ethanol
- Justification for choice of solvent/vehicle: the test substance was sufficiently soluble, and no effects on the viability of the bacteria or the number of spontaneous revertants are expected.

Details on test system and experimental conditions:
Cell cultures: Salmonella typhimurium (all strains used) were obtained from TRINOVA BioChem

METHOD OF APPLICATION: in medium; exp 1 preincubation; exp 2 and 3 in agar (plate incorporation)

DURATION
- Preincubation period (exp 1): 20 min
- Exposure duration: 48 h at 37 °C

SELECTION AGENT (mutation assays): histidine

CELL COUNT: visually

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 4 per strain and concentration

NUMBER OF CELLS: titre determined to be 1.5E09 to 3.6E09 cells/mL
Evaluation criteria:
positive when: significant, reproducible increase of revertant colonies per plate (increase factor >2) in at least one strain. A concentration-related increase over the range tested can also be taken as a sign of mutagenic activity .
biological relevance is taken into account first
Statistics:
none performed

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The test substance did not induce mutations in 5 strains of Salmonella typhimurium both in presence and absence of metabolic activation
Executive summary:

The test substance was tested in a plate incorporation and pre-incubation assay in Salmonella thypimurium strains TA100, TA102, TA97a, TA 98 and TA 1535 in presence and absence of metabolic activation. No mutagenic effects were seen in three experiments. The number of revertant colonies was not increased in comparison with the spontaneous revertants. Therefore the test substance is considered not mutagenic under the test conditions.
