OTHER: Mice were irradiated with X-rays at 200 rad using a Hitachi X-ray machine with an adjusted Victreen dosimeter. After irradiation the flavoring was administered orally at 0, 250, 313 or 500 mg/kg. Bone marrow cells were sampled 24 h after the irradiation. In the time-course study, cinnamaldehyde at 500 mg/kg was given to mice immediately after the irradiation and bone marrow cells were sampled periodically. The micronucleus assay was performed according to the methods described by Schmid (1976). - Evaluation criteria:
- The frequencies of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei (MNPCEs) per 1000 polychromatic erythrocytes (PCEs), and PCEs per 1000 red blood cells per mouse were determined.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test chemical did not induce gene mutation in vivo in male ddY mice as observed by the mouse micronucleus test.
- Executive summary:
A mouse micronucleus test was conducted to evaluate the mutagenic nature of the test chemical in vivo in male ddYmice. The test compound was dissolved in olive oil and given to male mice at a dose range of 0, 250, 313 or 500 mg/kg. Mice were irradiated with X-rays at 200 rad using a Hitachi X-ray machine with an adjusted Victreen dosimeter. After irradiation the flavoring was administered orally at the above-mentioned dosage. Bone marrow cells were sampled 24 h after the irradiation. In the time-course study, the test chemical at 500 mg/kg was given to mice immediately after the irradiation and bone marrow cells were sampled periodically at 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 hours. X-ray-induced chromosome aberrations were suppressed when the test chemical was given orally to mice after X-ray irradiation. Chromosome aberrations were monitored by the occurrence of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei in bone marrow cells. The frequency of micronuclei was depressed about 55-60% without toxicity of the test compounds to the bone marrow. Based on the results of the current study, it is proven that the test chemical did not induce gene mutation in vivo in male ddY mice as observed by the mouse micronucleus test.
