Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 474 (Mammalian Erythrocyte Micronucleus Test)
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Type of assay:
micronucleus assay
Species:
mouse
Strain:
NMRI
Sex:
male/female
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
Strain NMRI. Animals were approximately 22-26 g (male) and 20-25 g (female) and acclimated for 1 week to the test conditions (20 =/- 3 degrees C, 30-70% relative humidity, 12 hour light/dark cycle). Food was given daily and water was ad libitum. All animals were healthy at the time of test initiation.
Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
NaCl
Duration of treatment / exposure:
72 hours
Frequency of treatment:
single dose
Remarks:
Doses / Concentrations:
1122 mg/kg
Basis:
actual ingested
No. of animals per sex per dose:
40 males and 40 females per dose
Control animals:
yes
Positive control(s):
Endoxan (cyclophosphamid)
Tissues and cell types examined:
Cells were taken from the thigh.
Details of tissue and slide preparation:
Cells were mixed with cattle serum and suspended, then centrifuged. The sediment was then resuspended. The suspension was seperated in a cellulose chromatography column. This was centrifuged, and mixed with fetal calf serum and EDTA. This was air-dried for 24 hrs and stained with Giemsa.
Evaluation criteria:
number of polychromatid erythrocytes (PCE)
ratio of PCE to normochromatid erythrocytes (NCE)
number of cells with micronucleus
Sex:
male/female
Genotoxicity:
negative
Toxicity:
no effects
Vehicle controls validity:
valid
Negative controls validity:
valid
Positive controls validity:
valid

No significant increases in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei were observed.

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
No significant increases in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei were observed.
Executive summary:

In a study with analogue LAS acid, no significant increases in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei were observed. The test substance is considered negative (not mutagenic) in the mouse micronucleus test.
