In the first experiment, the bacterial background lawn was not reduced at any of the concentrations and no relevant decrease in the number of revertants was observed in all bacteria strains. The test item showed no signs of toxicity towards the bacteria strains in both the absence and presence of metabolic activation. The results of this experiment showed that none of the tested concentrations caused a significant increase in the number of revertants in all tested strains, in the presence and the absence of metabolic activation. To verify this result, a further experiment was performed.
In the second experiment, the bacterial background lawn was not reduced at any of the concentrations and no relevant decrease in the number of revertants was observed in all bacteria strains. The test item showed no signs of toxicity towards the bacteria strains in both the absence and presence of metabolic activation. The results of this experiments showed that the test item caused no increase in the number of revertants in all bacteria strains compared to the solvent control, in both the absence and presence of metabolic activation. The test item did not induce a dose-related increase in the number of revertants colonies in all strains, in the presence and absence of metabolic activation.
Based on the results of this study it is concluded that test item is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA97a, TA98, TA100, TA102 and TA1535 in the absence and presence of metabolic activation under the experimental conditions in this study.
Reference
Acceptance criteria:
In all experiments, no precipitation of the test item was observed at any of the tested concentrations up to 5000 μg/plate.
In both experiments, the test item caused no cytotoxicity towards all bacteria strains.
The confirmation tests of the genotype did not show any irregularities. The control of the titre was above the demanded value of 109 bacteria/mL.
Nearly all of the means of all replicates of the spontaneous revertants (in negative and solvent controls) were within the range of the historical data of the test facility. Nearly all numbers of revertant colonies of the positive controls were within the range of the historical data of the, but all were increased in comparison with the negative controls, which demonstrated the mutagenic potential of the diagnostic mutagens.
Since all criteria for acceptability have been met, the study is considered valid.
