Details on test system and experimental conditions:
Cultures of each strain were prepared by incubating an aliquot of strain at 37°C for 8 hours.
Pre-incubation method:
After mixing the test material solution, the phosphate buffer (pH 7.4) or the S9 mix and the culture of the test strain in a test tube, the mixture was incubated at 37°C for 20 minutes. Then top agar was added in the test tube, the mixture of each tube was poured on minimal agar plate. The plates were incubated at 37°C for 2 days and scored for revertants.
