Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- A mixture that also contained stearyl caprylate was not mutagenic in an Ames test with or without metabolic activation and had no clastogenic effect in an in vivo micronucleus test in which mice were given a single oral dose of 500-1500 mg/kg in corn oil
- Executive summary:
A mixture that also contained stearyl caprylate was not mutagenic in an Ames test with or without metabolic activation and had no clastogenic effect in an in vivo micronucleus test in which mice were given a single oral dose of 500-1500 mg/kg in corn oil
