- Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that the test item Hostacerin DGSB, is “non-mutagenic” in the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test up to the highest tested concentration of 5 mg/plate under the test condition.
- Executive summary:
The test item, Hostacerin DGSB obtained from Clariant India Limited,was evaluated for mutagenicity in Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test as per the OECD guidelinefor testing of chemicals No. 471, “Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test”, adopted on21stJuly 1997.
The tester strains used in the mutation assay were Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 and Escherichia coliWP2 uvrA (pKM101).
The test concentrations tested in the mutation assay were selected based on the results of solubility, precipitation and initial cytotoxicity test. The two independent trials (trial I and II) were conducted by plate incorporation method and pre incubation method in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system. In mutation assay the test item was tested at the concentrations of0.05, 0.16, 0.50, 1.58 and 5mg/plate. Vehicle control (acetone) and appropriate positive controls (2-nitrofluorene, sodium azide and 9-Aminoacridine, 4-nitroquinoline 1-oxide for trials “without metabolic activation” and 2-Aminoanthracene for trials “with metabolic activation”) were tested simultaneously. On the basis of test item solubility and precipitation tests, the initial cytotoxicity test was performed at 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, and 2 mg/plate. The follow-up initial cytotoxicity test was performed at the 1, 2, 2.25, 2.50, 2.75, 3, 4 and 5 mg/plate concentrations. Initial cytotoxicity test was performed with TA100 both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system. For the tester strain TA100 treated with Hostacerin DGSB at the concentration of 5 mg/plate both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation no cytotoxicity and lawn reduction was observed. Hence on the basis of cytotoxicity results 5 mg/plate was considered as the highest test concentration for mutation assay.
From the experimental results obtained, the mean numbers of revertant colonies at the tested concentrations were comparable to those of the vehicle control, in both the trials, in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. There was no appreciable increase in number of revertant colonies at any of the tested concentrations in both the trials.The number of revertant colonies in the positive controls resulted in 2.2 to 15.0 fold increase under identical conditions.

- Executive summary:
The test item, Hostacerin DGSB, was evaluated for chromosome aberrations in human lymphocytes, as per the OECD guideline for the testing of chemicals, No. 473. Test item was found to be soluble in Acetone at 200 mg/mL. A precipitation test was conducted at 0.03125, 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25, 0.50, 1 and 2 mg/mL. Post 25 hours of incubation, no change in pH was observed at any of the concentrations tested upto 2 mg/mL. No precipitation was observed at the tested concentrations at and up to 0.25 mg/mL. Slight precipitation was observed at 0.50 mg/mL and the test item precipitated at and above 1 mg/mL. Hence, 0.50 mg/mL was selected as highest concentration for initial cytotoxicity test.
The treatment of cultures with Hostacerin DGSB in the presence and absence of metabolic activation (short term treatment 3 to 6 hours) at all concentrations tested resulted in the decrease of Mitotic Index (MI) and the obtained reduction in MI was in the range of 11.83% to 64.50%. The reduction in MI at 250µg/mLwas in the range of 42 to 44.03%. Hence 250µg/mL was selected as the highest concentration for the chromosomal aberration test for short term treatment (3 to 6 hrs). Similarly, treatment of cultures with Hostacerin DGSB in the absence of metabolic activation (long term treatment 20 to 24 hrs) at all concentrations tested resulted in the decrease of Mitotic Index (MI) and the obtained reduction in MI was in the range of 20.77% to 70.22%. The reduction in MI at 250 µg/mL was 47.06%. Hence, 250µg/mL was selected as the highest concentration for the chromosomal aberration test for long term treatment 20 to 24 hours.
In the chromosome aberration test, the cells were treated with Hostacerin DGSB at the concentrations of 62.50, 125 and 250 µg/mL using Acetone as the vehicle. The treatment was carried out in duplicates for the short-term period (3 to 6 hours) both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation, and for the long-term period (20 to 24 hours) in the absence of metabolic activation. Negative control was also maintained in the presence and absence of metabolic activation (short term treatment 3 to 6 hours) and also in the absence of metabolic activation (long term treatment 20 to 24 hrs). Cyclophosphamide Monohydrate (+S9 for short term) at the concentration of 10 µg/mL and Mitomycin-C at the concentration of 0.05 µg/mL (-S9 both for short term and long term) were used as positive controls.
The treated cells were harvested at about 1.5 normal cell cycle length after treatment. During harvesting of cultures, the cells were treated with a metaphase-arresting substance (colchicine), harvested, stained and metaphase cells were analysed microscopically for the structural chromosomal aberrations.
The results with Hostacerin DGSB indicated no statistically significant increase in the number of aberrated cells when compared with vehicle control at any of the concentrations tested, whether with or without metabolic activation.The reduction of MI observed at 62.50, 125 and 250 µg/mL for the short-term period (3 to 6 hours) in the presence of metabolic activation were 27.22%, 29.59% and 45.57% respectively. Similarly, the reduction of MI observed at the same test concentrations for the short-term period (3 to 6 hours) in the absence of metabolic activation were 18.64%, 32.02% and 44.07% respectively. The reduction of MI observed at 62.50, 125 and 250 µg/mL in the absence of metabolic activation for long term treatment (20 to 24 hours) were 30.13%, 38.80% and 48.58%, respectively.
The cultures treated with positive controls for the short-term period (3 to 6 hours) both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation, and for the long-term period (20 to 24 hours) in the absence of metabolic activation, induced 10.65%, 11.65% and 11.00% of aberrated cells respectively, which was statistically significant compared with the respective vehicle controls. This demonstrated sensitivity of the test system towards positive controls and confirmed that the test conditions were adequate.

- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: in medium;
- Cell density at seeding (if applicable):Approximately 2×106 cells per culture flask were seeded using
culture medium with 10% FBS with antibiotics (1% Penicillin and Streptomycin).
DURATION
- Exposure duration: 3 to 6 hours
- Expression time (cells in growth medium): 9 Days of expression period
- Selection time (if incubation with a selection agent): 7 to 9 Days.
- Fixation time (start of exposure up to fixation or harvest of cells):
SELECTION AGENT (mutation assays): 6 Thioguanine
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Tetraplates
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: cloning efficiency; relative survival; - Rationale for test conditions:
- Not applicable
- Evaluation criteria:
- There are several criteria for determining a positive result, such as a concentration-related increase or a reproducible increase in mutant frequency. Biological relevance of the results should be considered first. Statistical methods may be used as an aid in evaluating the test results. Statistical significance should not be the only determining factor for a positive response.
A test item, for which the results do not meet the above criteria, is considered non-mutagenic in this system.
There is no requirement for verification of a clearly positive or negative response.
In cases when the response is neither clearly negative nor clearly positive as described above, a repeat experiment possibly using modified experimental conditions is to perform. - Statistics:
- Data of mutant frequencies were analyzed for differences among vehicle control, treatment and positive control groups using SPSS Software version 22 at a 95% level (p<0.05) of significance. The statistical significance was designated by the superscripts in the report as stated below:
* Statistically significant (p<0.05) change than the vehicle control group. - Key result

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used: RICC, Cloning efficiency, Relative survival. - Conclusions:
- Based on the results obtained in this In vitro mammalian cell gene mutation test, Hostacerin DGSB is considered non-mutagenic at and up to the concentration of 0.50 mg/mL both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation under the laboratory conditions tested.
- Executive summary:
The test item Hostacerin DGSB, was evaluated for gene mutation test in CHO AA8 cells, as per the OECD guideline for the testing of chemicals, No. 476 “In vitro Mammalian Cell Gene Mutation Tests using the hprt and xprt genes” adopted on 29th July 2016. The test item was found to be soluble in acetone at 200 mg/mL. The test item did not precipitated at and up to 0.25 mg/mL. Slight precipitation was observed at the concentration of 0.5 mg/mL and moderate to heavy precipitation was observed at the concentration at 1 and 2 mg/mL under the inverted microscope. The pH tested at concentrations up to 2 mg/mL was comparable to the vehicle control. Based on these results, 0.5 mg/mL was chosen as the highest concentration for the initial cytotoxicity test.
Initial cytotoxicity test was conducted by the test item Hostacerin DGSB at the concentrations of 0.0312, 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25 and 0.50 mg/mL with 10 mL of culture media with CHO AA8 cells in the respective flasks. Percentage of Relative Survival (RS) for test item treated at 0.0312, 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25 and 0.50 mg/mL were 90.82, 88.78, 86.73, 85.71 and 81.63 in the presence of metabolic activation, respectively and 90.91, 87.88, 85.86, 83.84 and 77.78 in the absence of metabolic activation, respectively. The results of the initial cytotoxicity test indicated that the test item was not cytotoxic to CHO AA8 cells as the Relative Survival of the treated CHO AA8 cells at the tested concentrations up to 0.5 mg/mL was more than 20%, when compared with the respective vehicle control, both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation.
The Gene mutation test was conducted by the test item Hostacerin DGSB at the concentrations of 0.0625, 0.125, 0.25 and 0.50 mg/mL using acetone as a vehicle in tetra plates in the presence and absence of metabolic activation (3 to 6 hours). Positive controls, 3µg/mL of Benzo (a) pyrene [with metabolic activation (+S9)] and 1 µg/mL of 4-Nitroquinoline 1- oxide [without metabolic activation (-S9)] were used for the gene mutation test. Cytotoxicity was assessed by determining the Adjusted Cloning Efficiency and Relative Survival in the test.
Hostacerin DGSB resulted in mutant frequencies of 25.76 to 26.76 per 2×106 cells in the presence of metabolic activation at the different concentrations tested compared to 27.40 per 2×106 cells in the vehicle control. In the absence of metabolic activation, test item resulted in mutant frequencies of 24.19 to 25.37 per 2×106 cells compared to 26.03 per 2×106 cells in the vehicle control. There was no statistically significant increase in the number of mutant colonies at any of the concentrations tested when compared with vehicle control.
Positive controls resulted in mutant frequencies of 297.22 (with metabolic activation) and 295.77 (without metabolic activation) per 2×106 cells, which was statistically significant when compared with the vehicle control.

Additional information
Justification for classification or non-classification
In order to evaluate the genetic toxicity potential of the registered substance three in vitro tests according to OECD guidelines were performed: i.e. Ames test (OECD 471), Chromosome aberration test (OECD473) and HGPRT (OECD 476) test. All of these three in vitro tests were negative in result. According to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 of the European Parliament and of the council of 16 December 2008 on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures, amending and repealing Directives 67/548/EEC and 1999/45/EC, and amending Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, the test substance Hostacerin DGSB has not to be classified.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
