Details on test system and experimental conditions:

METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation)

DURATION
- Exposure duration: 48 hours

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Doses of the test substance were tested in triplicate in each strain. Two independent experiments were conducted.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: The reduction of the bacterial background lawn, the increase in the size of the microcolonies and the reduction of the revertant colonies

OTHER:
- Precipitation of test substance

Evaluation criteria:

A test substance is considered negative (not mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in tester strain TA100 is not greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, and the total number of revertants in tester strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 or WP2uvrA is not greater than three (3) times the concurrent control.
b) The negative response should be reproducible in at least one independently repeated experiment.

A test substance is considered positive if:
b) A two-fold (TA100) or more or a three-fold (TA1535, TA1537, TA98, WP2uvrA) or more increase above solvent control in the mean number of revertant colonies is observed in the test substance group.
b) The increase in the mean number of revertant colonies follows the concentration of test substance (dose-response relationship).

TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Precipitation: Slight precipitate was observed at the top dose of 5000 µg/plate

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
In tester strain TA100, toxicity was observed at dose levels of 33 μg/plate and above in the absence and presence of S9-mix. In tester strain WP2uvrA, toxicity was observed at dose levels of at 100 µg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix

COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA:
The negative and strain-specific positive control values were within our laboratory historical control data ranges indicating that the test conditions were adequate and that the metabolic activation system functioned properly.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Based on the results of this study it is concluded that Oleyl dipropylenetriamine is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay.

Executive summary:

Oleyl dipropylenetriamine was tested in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay with four histidine-requiring strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100) and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay with a tryptophan-requiring strain of Escherichia coli (WP2uvrA). The test was performed in two independent experiments in the presence and absence of S9-mix (rat liver S9-mix induced by a combination of phenobarbital and ß-naphthoflavone).

The study procedures described in this report were based on the most recent OECD and EC guidelines.

Oleyl dipropylenetriamine was an off white turbid liquid. The test substance was dissolved in ethanol.

 

Experiment	Tester strains	Metabolic activation	Concentration range
Dose range finding	TA100 and WP2uvrA	- 5% (v/v) S9	Up to 5000μg/plate Up to 5000μg/plate
Experiment 1	TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100	- 5% (v/v) S9	Up to 33μg/plate Up to 66μg/plate
Experiment 2	TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100	- 10% (v/v) S9	Up to 33μg/plate Up to 66μg/plate
	WP2uvrA	- 10% (v/v) S9	Up to 100μg/plate Up to 100μg/plate

- no S9-mix added.

Oleyl dipropylenetriamine precipitated on the plates at the top dose of 5000 μg/plate. Cytotoxicity, as evidenced by a decrease in the number of revertants and/or a reduction of the bacterial background lawn, was observed in all tester strains in the absence and presence of S9-mix.

Oleyl dipropylenetriamine did not induce a significant dose-related increase in the number of revertant (His+) colonies in each of the four tester strains (TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100) and in the number of revertant (Trp+) colonies in tester strain WP2uvrA both in the absence and presence of S9-metabolic activation. These results were confirmed in an independently repeated experiment.

 

In this study, the negative and strain-specific positive control values were within the laboratory historical control data ranges indicating that the test conditions were adequate and that the metabolic activation system functioned properly.

 

Based on the results of this study it is concluded that Oleyl dipropylenetriamine is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay and in the Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay.
