Method

Species / strainopen allclose all
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100
Species / strain / cell type:
E. coli WP2 uvr A
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
Metabolic activation was achieved by addition of S-9 mix, which consisted of the S-9 fraction from the liver of male Sprague-Dawley rats treated with AROCLOR 1254, mixed with a series of cofactors (MgCl2, KCl, Glucose-6-phosphate, NADP, phosphate buffer).
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
3; 10; 33; 100; 333; 1000; 2500; and 5000 μg/plate
Vehicle / solvent:
- Vehicle/solvent used: deionized water
- Justification for choice of solvent/vehicle: The solvent was chosen because of its solubility properties and its relative nontoxicity to the bacteria.
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
yes
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
yes
True negative controls:
no
Positive controls:
yes
Positive control substance:
sodium azide
methylmethanesulfonate
other: 4-nitro-o-phenylene-diamine: TA 1537, TA98 without activation; 2-aminoanthracene: all strains with activation
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation); preincubation

DURATION
- Preincubation period: 60 min
- Exposure duration: 48 – 72 hours

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3 per dose or per control
Evaluation criteria:
The assessment for the test was based on the number of histidine or tryptophan revertant colonies per plate. In general, a substance to be characterized as positive in the Ames test has to fulfill the following requirements:
- doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate (control)
- dose-response relationship
- reproducibility of the results

Additional information on results:
TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS:
- Precipitation: Precipitation of the test item in the overlay agar on the incubated agar plates was observed from 333 to 5000 μg/plate. The undissolved particles had no influence on the data recording.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used: No bacteriotoxic effect (reduced background growth) was found.
