Genetic toxicity in vitro

Description of key information

AMES test;

In genetic toxicity study test substance was assessed for its possible mutagenic potential by In vitro bacterial gene mutation assay. For this purpose the AMES assay was performed as per OECD guideline 471. The test was performed in Salmonella typhemurium strain TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and E. coli WP2uvrA by Plate incorporation and Pre incubation method.. The test substance was exposed at the concentration of 0,33,100,333,1000,2500 and 5000 µg/plate in the presence and absence of metabolic activation.No mutagenic effects were observed in both the assay in the presence and absence of S9. Therefore test substance was considered to be non-mutagenic with and without metabolic activation in Salmonella typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 1538 ,TA 98 ,TA 100 and E. coli WP2uvrA .Hence the substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.

In vitro Mammalian cell gene mutation assay

Test chemical tested for mutagenicity in mouse lymphoma TK⁺′⁻ assay. toxicity of test chemical was determined both with and without S9 prepared from Aroclor-1254-induced male Fischer 344 rats. L5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma cells was exposed to Without S9: 971, 971, 1229, 1229, 1486, 1486, 1743, 1743, 2000 and 2000 µg/ml and positive control is Ethyl methanesulfonate at 0.5 µl/ml. With S9: 92, 206, 332, 439, 439, 556 and 556 µg/ml concentration of test chemical and positive control is 3-methylcholanthrene at 5.0 or 10.0 µg/ml. There was no dose-related increase in the mutant frequency above the spontaneous control frequency, no 2-fold increase at more than 1 dose and not relative total growth greater than 10% at any exposed concentration. Hencethe substance is considered to be not mutagenic inL5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma cells with and without metabolic activation.

The gene mutation study was conducted according toL5178Y TK+/-Mouse Lymphoma Mutagenicity Assay to determine the mutagenic nature ofthe test chemical.  The Cells at a concentration of 6 X 105/mL (6 X106cells total) were exposed for 4 h to a range of concentrations from1642-3680µg/mL of the test chemical. The cells were then washed, resuspended in growth medium, and incubated at 37°C for 48 h. The rate of cell growth was determined for each of the treated cultures and compared to the rate of growth of the solvent controls.Results were interpreted using a doubling of the mutant frequency over the concurrent solvent-treated control value as an indication of a positive effect, together with evidence of a dose-related increase.The test chemical did not induce a doubling of the mutant frequency both in the presence and absence of S9 activation system and hence is not likely to be gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the data summarized, 3H,3'H-2,2'-bi-1-benzothiophene-3,3'-dione; Thioindigo( 522-75-8 )did not induce gene mutation .Hence it is not likely to be mutagenic in vitro.

Test chemical tested for mutagenicity in mouse lymphoma TK⁺′⁻ assay. toxicity of test chemical was determined both with and without S9 prepared from Aroclor-1254-induced male Fischer 344 rats. L5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma cells was exposed to Without S9: 971, 971, 1229, 1229, 1486, 1486, 1743, 1743, 2000 and 2000 µg/ml and positive control is Ethyl methanesulfonate at 0.5 µl/ml. With S9: 92, 206, 332, 439, 439, 556 and 556 µg/ml concentration of test chemical and positive control is 3-methylcholanthrene at 5.0 or 10.0 µg/ml. There was no dose-related increase in the mutant frequency above the spontaneous control frequency, no 2-fold increase at more than 1 dose and not relative total growth greater than 10% at any exposed concentration. Hencethe substance is considered to be not mutagenic inL5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma cells with and without metabolic activation.

The gene mutation study was conducted according toL5178Y TK+/-Mouse Lymphoma Mutagenicity Assay to determine the mutagenic nature ofthe test chemical.  The Cells at a concentration of 6 X 105/mL (6 X106cells total) were exposed for 4 h to a range of concentrations from1642-3680µg/mL of the test chemical. The cells were then washed, resuspended in growth medium, and incubated at 37°C for 48 h. The rate of cell growth was determined for each of the treated cultures and compared to the rate of growth of the solvent controls.Results were interpreted using a doubling of the mutant frequency over the concurrent solvent-treated control value as an indication of a positive effect, together with evidence of a dose-related increase.The test chemical did not induce a doubling of the mutant frequency both in the presence and absence of S9 activation system and hence is not likely to be gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the data summarized, 3H,3'H-2,2'-bi-1-benzothiophene-3,3'-dione; Thioindigo( 522-75-8 )did not induce gene mutation .Hence it is not likely to be mutagenic in vitro.

Additional information

Data for the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of 3H,3'H-2,2'-bi-1-benzothiophene-3,3'-dione; Thioindigo( 522-75-8 ) . The studies are as mentioned below:

 

AMES test;

In genetic toxicity study test substance was assessed for its possible mutagenic potential by In vitro bacterial gene mutation assay. For this purpose the AMES assay was performed as per OECD guideline 471. The test was performed in Salmonella typhemurium strain TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and E. coli WP2uvrA by Plate incorporation and Pre incubation method.. The test substance was exposed at the concentration of 0,33,100,333,1000,2500 and 5000 µg/plate in the presence and absence of metabolic activation.No mutagenic effects were observed in both the assay in the presence and absence of S9. Therefore test substance was considered to be non-mutagenic with and without metabolic activation in Salmonella typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 1538 ,TA 98 ,TA 100 and E. coli WP2uvrA .Hence the substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.

Plate-incorporation was carried out to observe genetic effect of test substance in S.typhimurium strainTA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100. All strain were tested at dose 3333, 1000, 6666 and 10000 µg/plate both with and without metabolic activation (Aroclor 1254-induced male Fischer). Positive control and solvent control as used. There is no dose-related increase in the number of revertants above spontaneous solvent controls, with a 2-fold increase for strains TA1535, TA1538, TA98 and TA100, and a 3-fold increase for TA1537.Hence, the test substance is considered to be not mutagenic inSalmonella typhimurium strain TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100 with and without metabolic activation.

Gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of test substance . The study was performed using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97, TA98, TA100 with and without PCB induced S9 metabolic activation system. The plates were incubated for 48 hrs and the number of dose dependent increase in the revertants was counted. Test substance did not induce reversion of histidine gene mutation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97, TA98, TA100 both in the presence and absence of PCB induced rat liver S9 fraction and hence the chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

In vitro Mammalian cell gene mutation assay

Test chemical tested for mutagenicity in mouse lymphoma TK⁺′⁻ assay. toxicity of test chemical was determined both with and without S9 prepared from Aroclor-1254-induced male Fischer 344 rats. L5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma cells was exposed to Without S9: 971, 971, 1229, 1229, 1486, 1486, 1743, 1743, 2000 and 2000 µg/ml and positive control is Ethyl methanesulfonate at 0.5 µl/ml. With S9: 92, 206, 332, 439, 439, 556 and 556 µg/ml concentration of test chemical and positive control is 3-methylcholanthrene at 5.0 or 10.0 µg/ml. There was no dose-related increase in the mutant frequency above the spontaneous control frequency, no 2-fold increase at more than 1 dose and not relative total growth greater than 10% at any exposed concentration. Hencethe substance is considered to be not mutagenic inL5178Y TK +/- mouse lymphoma cells with and without metabolic activation.

The gene mutation study was conducted according toL5178Y TK+/-Mouse Lymphoma Mutagenicity Assay to determine the mutagenic nature ofthe test chemical.  The Cells at a concentration of 6 X 105/mL (6 X106cells total) were exposed for 4 h to a range of concentrations from1642-3680µg/mL of the test chemical. The cells were then washed, resuspended in growth medium, and incubated at 37°C for 48 h. The rate of cell growth was determined for each of the treated cultures and compared to the rate of growth of the solvent controls.Results were interpreted using a doubling of the mutant frequency over the concurrent solvent-treated control value as an indication of a positive effect, together with evidence of a dose-related increase.The test chemical did not induce a doubling of the mutant frequency both in the presence and absence of S9 activation system and hence is not likely to be gene mutant in vitro.

Based on the data summarized, 3H,3'H-2,2'-bi-1-benzothiophene-3,3'-dione; Thioindigo( 522-75-8 )did not induce gene mutation .Hence it is not likely to be mutagenic in vitro.

Thus based on the above annotation and CLP criteria for target substance 3H,3'H-2,2'-bi-1-benzothiophene-3,3'-dione; Thioindigo( 522-75-8 )did not exhibit gene mutation in vitro. Hence the test chemical is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
