Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
0.625, 1.25, 2.5, 5, 10, and 20 μg/plate without metabolic activation: TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537 tested up to cytotoxic concentrations2.5, 5, 10, 20, 39, and 78 μg/plate with metabolic activation: TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537 tested up to cytotoxic concentrations10, 20, 39, 78, 156, and 313 μg/plate with and without metabolic activation: WP2 uvrA- tested up to the cytotoxic concentration
Vehicle / solvent:
- Vehicle(s)/solvent(s) used: DMSO - Justification for choice of solvent/vehicle: due to the limited solubility of the test substance in water, DMSO was selected as the vehicle

METHOD OF APPLICATION: preincubationDURATION- Preincubation period: 20 minutes- Exposure duration: 48 hNUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 2 replicates in each test
Evaluation criteria:
A test substance was considered positive in the Ames test if: a) a more than 2-fold increase in the number of revertants was observedb) the increase was dose-related, and c) the positive result was reproducible.A test substance was considered negative in the Ames test if none of the above criteria were met under all experimental conditions.
Statistics:
Mean values were calculated.

Additional information on results:
TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS- Precipitation: no precipitationRANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:A preliminary test was performed with test concentrations ranging from 0.625 - 5000 μg/plate with/without metabolic activation. No increase in the number of revertants was observed. Furthermore, cytotoxicity was observed at 10 μg/plate in TA100, TA1535, and TA1537 without metabolic activation, at 20 μg/plate in TA98 without metabolic activation, at 313 μg/plate in WP2urvA with and without metabolic activation, at 78 μg/plate in TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537 with metabolic activation.HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA (means (means ± 2 standard deviation))- Positive historical control data: Without metabolic activation in TA100 by AF-2: 453 (378 - 528), TA1535 by NaN3: 346 (269 - 424), WP2urvA- by ENNG: 536 (362 - 710), TA98 by AF-2: 512 (417 - 607), and TA1537 by 9-AA: 197 (57 - 338)With metabolic activation by 2- AA in TA100: 656 (412 - 900), TA1535: 269 (224 - 314), WP2urvA-: 619 (476 - 763), TA98: 407 (295 - 520), and TA1537: 123 (91 - 155)- Negative (solvent/vehicle) historical control data:Without metabolic activation in TA100: 96 (76 - 116), TA1535: 9 (5 - 13), WP2urvA-: 20 (15 - 25), TA98: 17 (12 - 21), and TA1537: 7 (5 - 9)With metabolic activation in TA100: 106 (75 - 136), TA1535: 9 (4 - 14), WP2urvA-: 21 (16 - 27), TA98: 22 (16 - 28), and TA1537: 10 (6 - 13)
