Rationale for test conditions:
Direct methodMETHOD OF APPLICATION: Preincubation method DURATION- Exposure duration: 48 hoursNUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Duplicate OTHER EXAMINATIONS: 3 plates per test were observed.
Evaluation criteria:
Among the five test bacteria used, in the direct method or metabolic activation method of one or more test bacteria, the number of revertive mutant colonies on the flat plate containing the test substance is more than twice that of the negative control , And when the increase was found to be reproducible or dose-dependent, it was decided that the test substance had mutagenicity (positive) in this test system.
Statistics:
Yes, Mean ±standard deviation was observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Test chemical was evaluated for its mutagenic potential in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537, Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA by AMES test. The test result was considered to be negative in all strain in the presence and absence of metabolic activation S9.
Executive summary:

Genetic toxicity in vitro study was assessed for Calcium salt of 3-hydroxy-4 - [(4-methyl-2-sulfophenyl) azo] -2-naphthalenecarboxylic acid (5281-04-9). For this purpose AMES test was performed according to Guidelines for Screening Mutagenicity Testing of Chemicals (Japan).The test material was exposed to Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537, Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of metabolic activation S9. The concentration of test material used in the presence and absence of metabolic activation were 0, 312.5, 625, 1250, 2500, 5000 µg/plate. No mutagenic effects were observed in all strains, in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. Therefore test chemical was considered to be non mutagenic in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537, Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA by AMES test. Hence the substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.
