Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in medium; in agar (plate incorporation); preincubationDURATION- Preincubation period: 20 min- Exposure duration: 48 - 72 hoursNUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3 DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY- Method: other: decrease in the number of revertants and reduced background lawn
Evaluation criteria:
Generally, the experiment was considered valid if the following criteria were met:- The number of revertant colonies in the negative controls was within the range of the historical negative control data for each tester strain.- The sterility controls revealed no indication of bacterial contamination.- The positive control substances both with and without S9 mix induced a distinct increase in the number of revertant colonies within the range of the historical positive control data or above.- Fresh bacterial culture containing approximately 109 cells per mL were used.The test substance was considered positive in this assay if the following criteria were met:- A dose-related and reproducible increase in the number of revertant colonies, i.e. at least doubling (bacteria strains with high spontaneous mutation rate, like TA 98, TA 100 and E.coli WP2 uvrA) or tripling (bacteria strains with low spontaneous mutation rate, like TA 1535 and TA 1537) of the spontaneous mutation rate in at least one tester strain either without S9 mix or after adding a metabolizing system.A test substance was generally considered non-mutagenic in this test if:- The number of revertants for all tester strains were within the historical negative control data range under all experimental conditions in at least two experiments carried out independently of each other.

Additional information on results:
TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORSNone.COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA: In this study with and without S9 mix, the number of revertant colonies in the negative controls was within the range of the historical negative control data for each tester strain. In addition, the positive control substances both with and without S9 mix induced a significant increase in the number of revertant colonies within the range of the historical positive control data.ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY: No bacteriotoxic effect (reduced his- or trp- background growth, decrease in the number of his+ or trp+ revertants) was observed in the standard plate and in the preincubation test up to the highest required concentration.
