Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The test material was determined to be non-mutagenic under the conditions of this test in both the absence and presence of a metabolic activation system.
Executive summary:
In an Ames test study conducted in accordance with the standard EU Annex V method (B13/14) under conditions of GLP, the substance was considered to be non-mutagenic in both the absence and presence of a metabolic activation system. The positive controls produced a satisfactory response whilst the substance was seem to precipitate at concentrations of 320 µg/plate and above. Cytotoxicty was observed both with and without S9 mix at concentrations above 5000 µg/plate.
