Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: - Experiment 1 (range finder): in agar (plate incorporation test); Experiment 2: pre-incubation test
DURATION- Preincubation period (Exp. 2 only): ca. 20 min- Exposure duration: 48 - 72 hours at 37°C
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 2 experiments; triplicate cultures/experiment
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY - Method: reduction in the number of revertants or a clearing of the bacterial background lawn, reduction of the titer.The titer is generally determined only in the experimental parts with S-9 mix both for the negative controls (vehicle only) and for the two highest doses in all experiments.
Evaluation criteria:
Acceptance criteria of study: The number of revertant colonies in the negative controls was within the normal range of the historical control data for each tester strain.- The sterility controls revealed no indication of bacterial contamination.- The positive control articles both with and without S-9 mix induced a significant increase in the number of revertant colonies within the range of the historical control data- The titer of viable bacteria was equal or greater than 1E+09 per milliliter.Evaluation criteria:Positive result when; A dose-related and reproducible increase in the number of revertant colonies, i.e. about doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate in at least one tester strain either without S-9 mix or after adding a metabolizing system.Negative result when; The number of revertants for all tester strains were within the historical negative control range under all experimental conditions in two experiments carried out independently of each other.
Statistics:
Individual plate counts, the mean number of revertant colonies per plate and the standard deviations were given for all dose groups as well as for the positive and negative (vehicle) controls in all experiments.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No evidence of mutagenicity was seen in any of the tester strains, in the absence and presence of metabolic activation.
Executive summary:

A bacterial reverse mutation test (Ames test) was conducted with Halb-PMDETA according to OECD 471 and EEC 92 -69 B14 and B13. Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 and Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA were tested in triplicate the absence and in the presence of metabolic activation at concentrations up to 5000 µg/plate in two independent experiments. Plate incorporation methodology was used in Test 1 and pre-incubation methodology was used in Test 2 . There was some evidence of toxicity in strains TA1535 and TA1537 in the form of a marked reduction in the number of revertant colonies. There was no precipitation of the test article or increases in the number of revertants when compared to the concurrent controls. The overall conclusion is that the test material

Halb-PMDETA is not mutagenic when tested up to 5000 µg/plate in the absence and presence of metabolic activation in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 and Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA.
