DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: cloning efficiency - Evaluation criteria:
- A test item producing neither a concentration-related increase of the mutant frequency nor a reproducible positive response at any of the test points is considered to be non-mutagenic in this system.
A mutagenic response is described as follows:
The test item is classified as mutagenic if it induces reproducibly with one of the concen¬trations a mutation frequency that is three times higher than the spontaneous mutation fre¬quency in the experiment.
The test item is classified as mutagenic if there is a reproducible concentration-related increase of the mutation frequency. Such evaluation may be considered also in the case that a threefold increase of the mutant frequency is not observed.
In a case by case evaluation this decision depends on the level of the correspon¬ding solvent control data. - Statistics:
- A linear regression (least squares) was performed to assess a possible dose dependent increase of mutant frequencies. The number of mutant colonies obtained for the groups treated with the test item was compared to the solvent control groups. A trend is judged as significant whenever the p-value (probability value) is below 0.05.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
According to the current OECD Guideline for Cell Gene Mutation Tests at least four analysable concentrations should be used in two parallel cultures. For freely-soluble and non-cytotoxic test items the maximum concentration should be 5 mg/mL, 5 µL/mL or 10 mM, whichever is the lowest. For cytotoxic test items the maximum concentration should result in approximately 10 to 20% relative survival or cell density at subcultivation and the analysed concentrations should cover a range from the maximum to little or no cytotoxicity. Relatively insoluble test items should be tested up to the highest concentration that can be formulated in an appropriate solvent as solution or homogenous suspension. These test items should be tested up or beyond their limit of solubility. Precipitation should be evaluated at the beginning and at the end of treatment by the unaided eye.
The range finding pre-experiment was performed using a concentration range of 39.1 to 5000 µg/mL to evaluate toxicity in the presence (4 hours treatment) and absence (4 hours and 24-hours treatment) of metabolic activation.
Relevant toxic effects occurred after 4 hours treatment at 625.0 µg/mL and above without metabolic activation and at 1250 µg/mL with metabolic activation. Following 24 hours treatment without metabolic activation toxic effects were noted at 156.3 µg/mL and above.
The test medium was checked for precipitation or phase separation at the end of each treatment period (4 or 24 hours) prior to removal to the test item. No precipitation or phase separation was observed up to the maximum concentration with and without metabolic activation following 4 and 24 hours treamtment.
There was no relevant shift of the osmolarity and pH value of the medium even at the maximum concentration of the test item.
The dose range of the first experiment was set according to the data generated in the pre-experiment. The dose range of the second experiment was adjusted to data produced in the pre-experiment (without metabolic activation) and in the first experiment (with metabolic activation). The individual concentrations were generally spaced by a factor of 2.0. A narrower spacing was used at higher concentrations in experiment I without metabolic activation and in experiment II with and without metabolic activation to cover the cytotoxic range more closely.
To overcome problems with possible deviations in toxicity the main experiments were started with more than four concentrations.
Experiment I
4 hours treatment without S9 mix: 39.1; 78.1; 156.3; 312.5; 625.0; 937.5; 1250 µg/mL
4 hours treatment with S9 mix: 78.1; 156.3; 312.5; 625.0; 1250; 2500; 5000 µg/mL
Experiment II
24 hours treatment without S9 mix: 9.4; 18.8 ; 37.5; 75.0; 150.0; 225.0; 300.0 µg/mL
4 hours treatment with S9 mix: 75.0; 150.0; 300.0; 600.0; 900.0; 1200.0 µg/mL
In experiment I with and without metabolic activation and in experiment II without metabolic activation the cultures at the two highest concentrations were not continued due to exceedingly severe toxic effects. In experiment II without metabolic activation the cultures at the highest concentration were not continued for the same reason. The cultures at the lowest concentration in experiment II with and without metabolic activation were not continued since a minimum of only four concentrations is required by the guidelines.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
Relevant cytotoxic effects, indicated by a relative cloning efficiency I or a relative cell density at first subcultivation of less than 50% in both parallel cultures, occurred in the first experiment at 625.0 µg/mL without metabolic activation and at 1250 µg/mL with metabolic activation. In the second experiment relevant cytotoxic effects as described above were noted at 150.0 µg/mL and above without metabolic activation and at 900 µg/mL and above with metabolic activation. The recommended cytotoxic range of approximately 10%-20% relative cloning efficiency or relative cell density was covered with and without metabolic activation. - Remarks on result:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Conclusion:
In conclusion it can be stated that under the experimental conditions reported the test item did not induce gene mutations at the HPRT locus in V79 cells. Therefore, Reactive Blue 21 is considered to be non-mutagenic in this HPRT assay. - Executive summary:
The test item Reactive Blue 21 was assessed for its potential to induce gene mutations at the HPRT locus using V79 cells of the Chinese hamster.
The study was performed in two independent experiments, using identical experimental procedures. In the first experiment the treatment period was 4 hours with and without metabolic activation. The second experiment was performed with a treatment time of 4 hours with and 24 hours without metabolic activation.

No precipitation of the test item was observed up to the maximum concentration with and without metabolic activation.
Relevant cytotoxic effects, indicated by a relative cloning efficiency I or a relative cell density at first subcultivation of less than 50% in both parallel cultures, occurred in the first experiment at 625.0 µg/mL without metabolic activation and at 1250 µg/mL with metabolic activation. In the second experiment relevant cytotoxic effects as described above were noted at 150.0 µg/mL and above without metabolic activation and at 900 µg/mL and above with metabolic activation. The recommended cytotoxic range of approximately 10%-20% relative cloning efficiency or relative cell density was covered with and without metabolic activation.
No relevant and reproducible increase in mutant colony numbers/106cells was observed in the main experiments up to the maximum concentration. The induction factor exceeded the threshold of three times the corresponding solvent control in both cultures of experiment I without metabolic activation at 625.0 µg/mL. However, the absolute mutation frequency of culture I was just 22.9 colonies per 106cells remaining well within the historical range of solvent controls and even within the actual solvent control range of the first experiment (6.8 to 25.3 colonies per 106cells). In the second culture of the first experiment without metabolic activation an isolated substantial increase of the mutation frequency exceeding both, the historical range of solvent controls and the threshold described above, occurred at 625 µg/mL. This isolated increase was judged as irrelevant outlier as it neither was reproduced in the parallel culture under identical conditions nor in the second experiment without metabolic activation. In the first culture of the second experiment with metabolic activation the threshold as described above was exceeded at 150 and 600 µg/mL. However, these increases were based on relative low solvent control and remained well within the historical solvent control data.
A linear regression analysis (least squares) was performed to assess a possible dose dependent increase of mutant frequencies. A significant dose dependent trend of the mutation frequency indicated by a probability value of <0.05 was determined in both cultures of the first experiment without metabolic activation. However, both of the significant increases were judged as irrelevant as they are either based on fluctuations within the actual and historical solvent control range (culture I) or on an irrelevant outlier (culture II).
In both experiments of this study (with and without S9 mix) the range of the solvent controls was from 6.1 up to 25.3 mutants per 106cells; the range of the groups treated with the test item was from 4.4 up to 50.4 mutants per 106cells.
EMS (150 µg/mL) and DMBA (2.2 µg/mL) were used as positive controls and showed a distinct increase in induced mutant colonies.
