ACCEPTABILITY OF THE ASSAY
The reverse mutation assay may be considered valid if the following criteria are met:
- All bacterial strains must have demonstrated the required characteristics as determined by their respective strain checks according to Ames et al., (1975), Maron and Ames (1983) and Mortelmans and Zeiger (2000). All tester strain cultures should exhibit a characteristic number of spontaneous revertants per plate in the vehicle and untreated controls (negative controls). Acceptable ranges are presented as follows: TA1535 7 to 40, TA100 60 to 200, TA1537 2 to 30, TA98 8 to 60, WP2uvrA 10 to 60
- All tester strain cultures should be in the range of 0.9 to 9 x 10^9 bacteria per mL.
- Diagnostic mutagens (positive control chemicals) must be included to demonstrate both the intrinsic sensitivity of the tester strains to mutagen exposure and the integrity of the S9-mix. All of the positive control chemicals used in the study should induce marked increases in the frequency of revertant colonies, which are at least the minimum positive control value over the previous two years, both with or without metabolic activation. The historical ranges of the positive control reference items for 2014 and 2015 are presented in Appendix 1.
- There should be a minimum of four non-toxic test item dose levels.
- There should be no evidence of excessive contamination. - Evaluation criteria:
- A test item will be considered non-mutagenic (negative) in the test system if the following criteria are not met. There are several criteria for determining a positive result. Any, one, or all of the following can be used to determine the overall result of the study:
1. A dose-related increase in mutant frequency over the dose range tested (De Serres and Shelby, 1979).
2. A reproducible increase at one or more concentrations.
3. Biological relevance against in-house historical control ranges.
4. Statistical analysis of data as determined by UKEMS (Mahon et al., 1989).
5. Fold increase greater than two times the concurrent solvent control for any tester strain (especially if accompanied by an out-of-historical range response (Cariello and Piegorsch, 1996)). - Statistics:
- Dunnetts Regression Analysis (p < 0.05) was performed.
- Key result
- Species / strain:
- other: S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and E. coli WP2
- Metabolic activation:
- with and without
- Genotoxicity:
- negative
- Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:
- cytotoxicity

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: No results reported.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- In the first mutation test (plate incorporation method), the test item caused a visible reduction in the growth of the bacterial background lawns of all of the tester strains at 5000 μg/plate in both the absence and presence of S9-mix.
- In the second mutation test (pre-incubation method), the test item induced a stronger toxic response, with weakened bacterial background lawns noted in the absence of S9-mix from 500 μg/plate (TA100, TA1537 and TA1535) and 1500 μg/plate (TA98 and WP2uvrA). In the presence S9-mix weakened bacterial background lawns were noted from 1500 μg/plate (TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537) and 5000 μg/plate (WP2uvrA).

- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the test substance was determined to be not mutagenic.
- Executive summary:
The mutagenic activity of Muguesia was evaluated in accordance with OECD TG 471 and according to GLP principles. The test was performed in two independent experiments: at first a direct plate assay was performed and secondly a pre-incubation assay, both in the absence and presence of S9-mix up to and including 5000 μg/plate. The dose levels were selected based on a dose range finding test with all tester strains. Cytotoxicity, as evidenced by a decrease in the number of revertants, or reduced background lawn was observed in the second mutation test (pre-incubation method), with weakened bacterial background lawns noted in the absence of S9-mix from 500 μg/plate (TA100, TA1537 and TA1535) and 1500 μg/plate (TA98 and WP2uvrA). In the presence of S9-mix, weakened bacterial background lawns were noted from 1500 μg/plate (TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537) and 5000 μg/plate (WP2uvrA). The negative and positive controls were found to be adequate. There were no significant (dose-related) increases in the frequency of revertant colonies recorded for any of the bacterial strains, with any dose of the test item, either with or without metabolic activation (S9-mix) in Experiment 1 (plate incorporation method) or Experiment 2 (pre-incubation method). Based on these results, it is concluded that Muguesia is not mutagenic under the conditions of this test.
