Specific details on test material used for the study:
SOURCE OF TEST MATERIAL
- Source and lot/batch No.of test material: KU0704

STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Stability: stable at room temperature
- Stability in solvent: insoluble in water; soluble (stable) in DMSO and acetone

Method

Species / strainopen allclose all
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100
Details on mammalian cell type (if applicable):
CELLS USED
- Source of cells: Japan bioasay research centre

Reason for selection of bacterial strains:
The selected bacterial strains are hypersensitive to mutagenic chemicals and generally used in the bacterial mutation test.
Species / strain / cell type:
E. coli WP2 uvr A
Details on mammalian cell type (if applicable):
CELLS USED
- Source of cells: Japan bioasay research centre

Reason for selection of bacterial strains:
The selected bacterial strains are hypersensitive to mutagenic chemicals and generally used in the bacterial mutation test.
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
S9-mix
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
Dose range-finding assay: 1.2, 4.9, 20, 78, 313, 1250, 5000 µg/plate
Main assay: 313, 625, 1250, 2500 and 5000 µg/plate

Precipitation of test material was observed at 5000 µg/plate and at 2500 µg/plate in the absence of S9 mix
Vehicle / solvent:
- Vehicle used: DMSO;
- Justification for choice of vehicle: substance was soluble and stable, the preliminary test on solvent selection in the testing facility revealed that the test substance was uniformly dispersed and stable but was undissolved at 5% in DMSO.
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
yes
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
yes
True negative controls:
not specified
Positive controls:
yes
Positive control substance:
sodium azide
other: 2-(2-Furyl)-3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylamide, 6-Chloro-9-[3-(2-chloroethylamino)-propylamino]-2-methoxyarcidine dihydrochloride, A-Aminoanthracene
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
S9-mix preparation:
Prepared on: 20 April 2007
Lot No.: 07042001

A pre-incubation step was employed which involved a 20-minute incubation (37°C) with shaking of the test solution with the bacterial culture (plus S9 mix in the case of metabolic activation assays) prior to the addition of agar. Cultures were incubated for 48 hours at 37°C. Dose levels were analysed in duplicate and solvent controls were analysed in triplicate.

An automatic colony counter was used to count the number of revertant colonies.
Evaluation criteria:
When the number of relevant colonies on test substance treatment plates is statistically significant increased compared to the spontaneous rate of mutation and the increase is a dose-dependent and reproducible between the dose-finding assay and the main study, the test substance is judged to be positive for mutagenicity. Otherwise, the test substance is judged as negative.
Statistics:
No statistical analysis is performed for data analysis.
