Additional information

Ca-/Mg-salt of Tall Oil Pitch (TOP) was tested in the Ames test (S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102) according to OECD TG 471 and GLP using test concentrations up to 5000 µg/plate dissolved in ethylene glycol dimethylether (EGDE) in the presence and in the absence of a metabolic activation system (S9 -mix). Evidence of mutagenic activity of Ca-/Mg-salt of Tall Oil Pitch TOP was not seen. No biological relevant increase in the mutant count, in comparison to the negative controls, was observed in any of the strains tested, with and without S9-mix, in the plate incorporation as well as in the preincubation modification, under the experimental conditions applied (Bayer HealthCare 2011)
