- TESTING
Standard plate test with and without S-9 mix [3 test plates per dose or per control]:
The experimental procedure was based on Ames et al. (Mut. Res. 31: 347-364, 1975) and Maron & Ames (Mut. Res. 113: 173-215, 1983).
Test tubes containing 2 mL portions of soft agar [100 mL agar (0.6% [w/v] agar + 0.6% [w/v] NaCl) and 10 mL amino acid solution (minimal amino acid solution for the determination of mutants: 0.5 mM histidine + 0.5 mM biotin for S. typhimurium or 0.5 mM tryptophan for E.coli)] were kept in a water bath at 45°C. 0.1 mL test solution or vehicle (negative control), 0.1 mL fresh bacterial culture and 0.5 mL S9 mix (in case of metabolic activation) or 0.5 mL phosphate buffer (in case of no metabolic activation) were added.
After mixing, the samples were poured onto agar plates and incubated at 37°C for 48 to 72 hours in the dark. After incubation, the bacterial colonies were counted for revertants.
Preincubation test with and without S-9 mix [3 test plates per dose or per control]
The experimental procedure was based on the method described by Yahagi et al. (Mut. Res. 48: 121-130, 1977) and Matsushima et al. (In: Norpoth, K.H. and R.C. Garner, Short-Term Test Systems for Detecting Carcinogens. Springer Verlag Berlin, Heidelberg, New York, 1980). 0.1 mL test solution or vehicle, 0.1 mL bacterial suspension and 0.5 mL S9 mix (in case of metabolic activation) or phosphate buffer (in case of no metabolic activation) were incubated at 37°C for about 20 minutes using a shaker. Subsequently, 2 mL of soft agar was added and, after mixing, the samples were poured onto the agar plates and incubated at 37°C for 48 to 72 hours in the dark. After incubation, the bacterial colonies were counted for revertants.
Titer determination:
In the standard plate test, 0 .1 mL of the overnight cultures was diluted to 10x E-6 in each case. Test tubes containing 2-ml portions of soft agar with amino acid solution as already described were kept in a water bath at 45°C, and 0 .1 mL vehicle (without and with test substance), 0 .1 mL fresh bacterial culture as well as 0 .5 mL S-9 mix were added.
In the preincubation test, 0 .1 mL of the overnight cultures was diluted to 10xE-6 in each case. 0 .1 mL vehicle (with and without test substance), 0 .1 mL bacterial suspension and 0 .5 mL S-9 mix were incubated at 37°C for about 20 minutes using a shaker. Subsequently, 2 mL of soft agar containing maximal amino acid solution for titer determination was added. After mixing, the samples were poured onto the agar plates and incubated at 37°C for 48 to 72 hours in the dark. The bacterial colonies were then counted.
PARAMETERS EVALUATED
Mutagenicity:
Individual plate counts, the mean number of revertant colonies per plate and the standard deviations were given for all dose groups as well as for the positive and negative (vehicle) controls in all experiments.
Titer:
The titer was generally determined only in the experimental parts with S-9 mix both for the negative controls (vehicle only) and for the two highest doses in all experiments.
Cytotoxicity:
Toxicity was detected by (1) decrease in the number of revertants, (2) clearing or diminution of the background lawn (= reduced his- or trp- background growth) and (3) reduction in the titer. Cytotoxicity was recorded for all test groups both with and without S9 mix in all experiments.
Solubility:
Precipitation of the test item was recorded and indicated. As long as precipitation does not interfere with colony scoring, 5000 µg/plate is generally selected and analyzed (in cases of nontoxic compounds) as the maximum dose at least in the 1st Experiment even in the case of relatively insoluble test compounds to detect possible mutagenic impurities. - Evaluation criteria:
- Acceptance criteria:
The experiment is to be considered valid if the following criteria are met :
• The number of revertant colonies in the negative controls is within the normal range of the historical control data for each tester strain;
• The sterility controls reveale no indication of bacterial contamination;
• The positive controls both with and without S-9 mix induce a significant increase in the number of revertant colonies within the range of the historical control data;
• The titer of viable bacteria is > 10xE+9/mL.
Evaluation criteria
The test item is considered positive if the following criteria are met:
• A dose-related and reproducible increase in the number of revertant colonies [about doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate in at least one tester strain either without S9 mix or with S9 mix];
The test item is considered negative if:
• The number of revertants for all tester strains is within the historical negative control range under all experimental conditions in two experiments carried out independently of each other.
