Metabolic activation system:
Type and composition of metabolic activation system:
- source of S9 : S9 (Oriental Yeast) prepared from the liver of 7-week-old male SD rats administered with phenobarbital (one time at 30 mg/kg and three times at 60 mg/kg) and 5,6-benzoflavone (one time at 80 mg/kg) was used.
- method of preparation of S9 mix : One milliliter of S9 mix consisted of 8 µmol MgCl2, 33 µmol KCl, 5 µmol Glucose-6-phosphate, 4 µmol NADPH, 4 µmol NADH, 100 µmol sodium-phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) and 0.1 mL of S9.
- quality controls of S9: enzymatic activity
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
Main test-1:
Without S9: 5000, 1250, 313, 78.1, 19.5, 4.88 µg/plate
With S9: 5000, 1250, 313, 78.1, 19.5, 4.88 µg/plate
Main test-2:
Without S9: 5000, 1250, 625, 313 µg/plate
With S9: 5000, 1250, 625, 313 µg/plate
Vehicle / solvent:
- Vehicle used: dehydrated DMSO
- Justification for choice of vehicle: The test substance solution of 50.0 mg/mL prepared with dehydrated DMSO was considered to be stable from the facts that there were no change in color, exothermic reaction nor gas generation at room temperature within 2 hours after preparation. Therefore, dehydrated DMSO was selected as a vehicle.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test item had no ability to induce mutations in a pre-incubation method with Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537 and Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA in the presence and absence of a metabolic activation system (S9 mix) under the present test conditions.
Executive summary:

The ability of the test item to induce mutations was investigated using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537 and Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA with a pre-incubation method in the presence and absence of a metabolic activation system (S9 mix). The mutagenicity of the test item was judged to be negative because the number of revertant colonies in the test substance treatment groups was less than twice that in the negative control for all tester strains regardless of the presence or absence of S9 mix. The numbers of the revertant colonies in the positive controls were above twice that in the negative controls. The test results showed that the numbers of revertant colonies in the negative and positive controls were within the range of the historical data at the testing facility. It was also confirmed that the test system was free from bacterial contamination, which declares the test results to be valid. It was concluded that the test item had no ability to induce mutations under the present test conditions.
