Description of key information
In vitro gene mutation study in bacteria: negative with and without metabolic activation (Reliability 1 key study; GLP compliant; OECD 471 test guideline) (CiToxLAB Hungary Ltd, 2017).
In vitro gene mutation study in mammalian cells: read-across from three source analogues [Potassium sulfate (CAS 7778-80-5), Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6) and Calcium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9)]. All three substances did not induce mutations in the mammalian cell systems used in the absence and presence of metabolic activation.
In vitro cytogenicity / chromosome aberration study in mammalian cells: read-across from three source analogues [Potassium sulfate (CAS 7778-80-5), Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6) and Calcium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9)]. All three substances item did not induce structural chromosome aberrations in the mammalian cell systems used both with and without metabolic activation (in vivo micronucleus test for Calcium sulfate) and were therefore considered to be non-clastogenic.
Based on the analogy approach applied, Sulfates of potassium, sodium and calcium, by-product from fermentation is not considered to be genotoxic in vitro.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Viability of the bacterial cells was checked.
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity: The viability of each testing culture was determined by plating 0.1 mL of the 10E5, 10E6, 10E7 and 10E8 dilutions prepared by sterile physiological saline on Nutrient Agar plates. The viable cell number of the cultures was determined by manual counting after approximately 24-hour incubation at 37°C. - Evaluation criteria:
- The colony numbers on the untreated / negative (solvent) / positive control and test item treated plates were determined by manual counting. Visual examination of the plates was also performed; precipitation or signs of growth inhibition (if any) were recorded and reported. The mean number of revertants per plate, the standard deviation and the mutation factor values were calculated for each concentration level of the test item and for the controls using Microsoft ExcelTM software. The study was considered valid if:
- the number of revertant colonies of the negative (vehicle/solvent) and positive controls are in the relevant historical control range, generated at the test facility, in all tester strains of the main tests (with or without S9-mix);
- at least five analysable concentrations are presented in all strains of the main tests
Criteria for a Positive Response:
A test item was considered mutagenic if:
- a concentration-related increase in the number of revertants occurs
- a reproducible biologically relevant positive response for at least one of the dose groups occurs in at least one strain with or without metabolic activation.
An increase was considered biologically relevant if:
- the number of reversions is more than two times higher than the reversion rate of the negative (solvent) control in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA bacterial strains;
- the number of reversions is more than three times higher than the reversion rate of the negative (solvent) control in Salmonella typhimurium TA1535 and TA1537 bacterial strains.
Criteria for a Negative Response:
The test item was considered to have shown no mutagenic activity in this study if it produces neither a dose-related increase in the number of revertants nor a reproducible biologically relevant positive response at any of the dose groups, with or without metabolic activation. - Statistics:
- Statistical method may be used as an aid in evaluating the test results. However, statistical significance should not be the only determining factor for a positive response.

- RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
In the Preliminary Range Finding Test, the plate incorporation method was used. The preliminary test was performed using Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and Salmonella typhimurium TA100 tester strains in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system (±S9 Mix) with appropriate untreated, negative (solvent) and positive controls. Each sample (including the controls) was tested in triplicate.
The following concentrations were examined: 5000, 2500, 1000, 316, 100, 31.6 and 10 µg/plate.
In the preliminary experiment, the number of revertant colonies were mostly in the normal range (minor differences were detected in some sporadic cases, but they were without biological significance and considered as biological variability of the test system).
No precipitate was detected on the plates in the preliminary experiment.
Inhibitory or toxic effects of the test item were not detected in the preliminary experiment.
Based on the results of the Range Finding Test and the solubility findings, the maximum final concentration to be tested in the main experiments was 5000 µg/plate.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used: The viability of the bacterial cells was checked by a plating experiment in each test. - Conclusions:
- Under the experimental conditions of the study, the test item Sulfates of potassium, sodium and calcium, by- product from fermentation (Batch Number: EXP LIberica Lote: AI16503047) has no mutagenic activity on the growth of the bacterial strains used in this study.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this GLP study was to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test item by measuring its ability to induce reverse mutations at selected loci of several strains of Salmonella typhimurium and at the tryptophan locus of Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA strain in the presence and absence of activated rat liver S9 fraction.
The experiments were carried out using histidine-requiring auxotroph strains of Salmonella typhimurium (Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537) and the tryptophan-requiring auxotroph strain of Escherichia coli (Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA) in the presence and absence of a post mitochondrial supernatant (S9 fraction) prepared from the livers of phenobarbital/beta-naphthoflavone- induced rats.
The study included a Preliminary Compatibility Test, a Preliminary Range Finding Test (Informatory Toxicity Test), an Initial Mutation Test (Plate Incorporation Method) and a Confirmatory Mutation Test (Pre-Incubation Method).
Based on the results of the Compatibility Test, the test item was dissolved in Distilled water at a concentration of 50 mg/mL. Concentrations of 5000; 2500; 1000; 316; 100; 31.6 and 10 µg/plate were examined in the Range Finding Test in tester strains Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 in the absence and presence of metabolic activation. Based on the results of the Range Finding Test, the test item concentrations in the Initial Mutation Test were 5000, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50 and 15.81 μg/plate. In the Confirmatory Mutation Test, they were 5000, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50, 15.81 and 5 μg/plate.
No precipitate was detected on the plates in the Preliminary Concentration Range Finding Tests and in the main tests in all examined bacterial strains with and without metabolic activation.
Inhibitory, cytotoxic effect of the test item was not detected in the Initial Mutation Test and Confirmatory Mutation Test.
In the Initial Mutation Test and Confirmatory Mutation Test, the number of revertant colonies did not show any biologically relevant increase compared to the solvent controls. There were no consistent dose-related trends and no indication of any treatment-related effect.
The mean values of revertant colonies of the negative (vehicle/solvent) control plates were within the historical control range, the reference mutagens showed the expected increase in the number of revertant colonies, the viability of the bacterial cells was checked by a plating experiment in each test. At least five analyzable concentrations were presented in all strains of the main tests, the examined concentration range was considered to be adequate. The study was considered to be valid.
Under the experimental conditions of the study, the test item Sulfates of potassium, sodium and calcium, by- product from fermentation (Batch Number: EXP LIberica Lote: AI16503047) has no mutagenic activity on the growth of the bacterial strains used in this study.

Additional information
In vitro Genotoxicity
A GLP Ames study (OECD TG 471, CiToxLAB Hungary Ltd, 2017) was performed on the following bacterial strains: TA98, 100, 1535, 1537 and E. Coli WP2. Bacteria were exposed with and without metabolic activation to different concentrations up to 5000 µg/plate and the number of revertant colonies was counted. No increase in the revertant colony number was observed in any of the experimental conditions. Based on the results of this study, Sulfates of potassium, sodium and calcium, by-product from fermentation was not considered to be mutagenic in a bacterial reverse mutation test.
Reliable experimental data for mutagenicity on bacteria are also available on the three analogue substances: Potassium sulfate (CAS 7778-80-5), Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6) and Calcium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9).
Ames tests were conducted for calcium (CAS 7778-18-9), potassium sulfate (CAS 7778-80-5) (OECD 471; NIER, 2001 and Bioreliance, 2001 respectively) and Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6) (according to publication of Ames et al. 1975, Bayer AG, 1988). Bacterial strains were exposed to concentrations up to 5000 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation. No increase in the number of revertant colonies was observed for the three substances. Based on the results of the three studies, the three analogues were not considered to be mutagenic in a bacterial reverse mutation test.
The results of the in vitro gene mutation studies in bacteria on both the three source substances and the target substance are indicative of a similar behavior regarding mutagenicity in the bacterial system. The very similar behavior in the bacterial mutagenicity potential further reinforces the read across justification applied for the systemic toxicity endpoints.
No in vitro gene mutation in mammalian cells or in vitro cytogenicity /chromosomal aberrations tests are available for Sulfates of potassium, sodium and calcium, by-product from fermentation. However, data are available on the three sulfate salts: Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6), Potassium sulfate (CAS 7778-80-5) and Calcium Sulfate (CAS7778-18-9) and a read across approach was used to fulfill data requirement for this endpoint.
The read across approach is based on the results of the transformation/dissolution study performed on the registered substance (Envigo Research Limited, 2016). This study demonstrated that Sulfates of potassium sodium and calcium, by-product from fermentation is completely transformed/dissolved (98.1%) within 30 minutes at pH 2 and at 37 °C. Hence, upon systemic uptake into the body, the registered substance will be present in dissolved form as sulfate anions and potassium, sodium and calcium cations. Furthermore, the three salts Sodium sulfate, Potassium sulfate and Calcium Sulfate are also completely dissociated in aqueous media in Sulfate anions and the respective cations, then this justifies that toxicity data can be read across from the three salts Sulfates of potassium, Sulfates of sodium and Sulfates of calcium to the target substance for systemic toxicity endpoints.
An in vitro gene mutation study on mammalian cells was performed (OECD 476, Harlan laboratories, 2010) for Calcium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9). L5187Y cells were exposed to the test item at concentrations up to 1361 µg/mL with and without metabolic activation. At the end of the study, the test item did not induce mutant frequency at the locus TK +/-. An OECD 476 was similarly conducted for Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6) at concentrations up to 1420 µg/mL. The results were negative with and without metabolic activation. A read across key study (OECD TG 476; NOTOX B.V., 2010) is available for Potassium Sulfate (CAS 7778-80-5). L5187Y cells were exposed Magnesium Sulphate Anhydrous at concentrations up to 17 µg/mL with and without metabolic activation. The substance did not induce mutant frequency at the locus TK +/- both with and without metabolic activation. An OECD 473 study (Harlan Cytotest Cell Research, 2010) is available for Sodium sulfate (CAS 7757-82-6). Chinese hamster lung fibroblast (V79) cells were exposed to the test item at concentrations up to 1420 µg/mL with and without metabolic activation system. At the end of the exposure period, no structural aberration related to the treatment was observed. A similar study was conducted with Potassium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9) (OECD 473, BioReliance, 2001) at concentrations up to 1740 µg/mL using CHO cells. No structural aberration was observed with and without metabolic activation. No OECD 473 study was performed on Calcium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9) as an in vivo micronucleus study is available for this substance (OECD 474).
In vivo Genotoxicity
One in vivo mutagenicity study (OECD 474, NIER, 2002) is available for Calcium sulfate (CAS 7778-18-9). Mice were exposed to Calcium sulfate at doses of 1250, 2500 and 5000 mg/kg bw. No increase in the micronucleus frequency in polychromatic erythrocytes was observed in bone marrow. Under the experimental conditions of this study, Calcium sulfate was not clastogenic or aneugenic in mice
The results of the above in vitro and in vivo genetic toxicity studies are indicative of a similar low toxicity for the three analogue substances. Hence, based on these data and on the analogy approach, Sulfates of potassium, sodium and calcium, by-product from fermentation is not considered to be genotoxic.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The target substance was negative in a bacterial reverse mutation test. While no in vitro or in vivo genotoxicity studies in mammalian cells or organisms are available for the target substance, all the three read-across substances showed no genotoxicity in the in vitro or in vivo tests. Based on the read-across rationale and the weight of evidence, the substance is not considered to meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
