Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation
DURATION
- Preincubation period: test substance solution (0.05 to 0.1 ml), S9 mix (0.5 ml) and bacterial suspension (0.1 ml) were incubated for 60 minutes at 37°C
- Exposure duration: 48 to 72 hours
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3
Evaluation criteria:
A reproducible two-fold increase in the number of revertants compared with the vehicle controls, in any strain at any dose-level and/or evidence of a dose-relationship was considered as a positive result. Reference to historical data, or other considerations of biological relevance may also be taken into account in the evaluation of the data obtained.

PRELIMINARY TOXICITY TEST

The test substance was supplied as a solution in distilled water at 50% (500 mg/ml). Consequently, with a maximum dose volume of 100 ul/plate, the dose-Ievels were: 10, 100, 500, 1000, 2500 and 5000 ug/plate. No precipitate was observed in the Petri plate when scoring the revertants. No toxicity was noted towards the three strains used, with and without S9 mix.

MUTAGENICITY EXPERIMENTS

The number of revertants of the vehicle and positive controls was as specified in the acceptance criteria and within the range of our historical data. Since the test substance was non-toxic, freely soluble, the highest dose-level was 5000 ug/plate, according to the criteria specified in the international regulations. The selected treatment-levels were: 312.5, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000 ug/plate. The test substance did not induce any significant increase in the number of revertants, with and without S9 mix, in any of the five strains.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The test substance did not induce any significant increase in the number of revertants, with and without S9 mix, in any of the five straïns and is therefore considered to be negative in the Ames test.
