TA 1537: 313 µg/plate (+/- S9)   
TA 1538: 1250 µg/plate (+/- S9)
OTHER OBSERVATIONS:   In the pre-incubation test, high spontaneous reverse mutation rates  were observed with and without metabolic activation 
in TA 1537 and TA  100. All other positive controls were functional. Increased toxicity  towards all strains was also observed in the 
pre-incubation test. Both  observations are tentatively assigned to the formation of peroxides  (presence of oxygen increased by shaking, 
longer residence time). Since  the pre-incubation assay could not be evaluated, a second main test was  performed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
other: negative both in presence and in absence of metabolic activation

Under the conditions of the study the test item 1,5Ccyclooctadiene proved to be non-mutagenic, both in the presence and in the absence of
Arochlor-induced liver microsomes, for all test strains used in this study.
Executive summary:

The substance 1,5-cyclooctadiene was tested in the Ames Salmonella mutagenicity test for any mutagenic activity. The test organisms were five histidine-auxotrophic Salmonella typhimurium strains (TA 1535; TA 1537; TA 1538; TA 98 and TA 100). Under the conditions of the study the test item 1,5-cyclooctadiene proved to be non-mutagenic, both in the presence and in the absence of Arochlor-induced liver microsomes, for all test strains used in this study.
