DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Count number of revertant colonies - Evaluation criteria:
- For each replicate plating, the mean and standard deviation of the number of revertants per plate were calculated and are reported.
For the test substance to be evaluated positive, it must cause a dose-related increase in the mean revertants per plate of at least one tester strain over a minimum of two increasing concentrations of test substance.
Data sets for tester strains TA1535 and TA1537 were judged positive if the increase in mean revertants at the peak of the dose response was greater than or equal to 3.0-times the mean vehicle control value. Data sets for tester strains TA98, TA100 and WP2 uvrA were judged positive if the increase in mean revertants at the peak of the dose response was greater than or equal to 2.0-times the mean vehicle control value.
An equivocal response is a biologically relevant increase in a revertant count that partially meets the criteria for evaluation as positive. This could be a dose-responsive increase that does not achieve the respective threshold cited above or a non-dose responsive increase that is equal to or greater than the respective threshold cited. A response was evaluated as negative if it was neither positive nor equivocal. - Key result

WP2 uvrA:27/10/5/84:30/10/7/80 - Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, Petitgrain Oil Paraguay (Petitgrain oil citrus aurantium) was determined to be not mutagenic and does not need to be classified for mutagenicity in accordance with the criteria outline in Annex I of CLP (1272/2008/EC).
- Executive summary:
The mutagenic activity of Petitgrain Oil Paraguay was evaluated in accordance with OECD 471 guideline and according to GLP principles. The test was performed as a standard plate incorporation assay, both in the absence and presence of S9-mix up to and including 5000 μg/plate. Cytotoxicity, as evidenced by a decrease in the number of revertants, was observed from 1500 or at 5000 μg/plate. Precipitation was observed at 5000 μg/plate. Adequate negative and positive controls were included. The substance did not induce a significant dose-related increase in the number of revertant (His+) colonies in each of the five S. typhimurium tester strains (TA1535, TA1537, TA98, TA100 WP2 uvrA), both in the absence and presence of S9 -metabolic activation. These results were confirmed in an independently repeated experiment. Based on the results of this study it is concluded that Petitgrain oil citrus aurantium was determined to be not mutagenic and does not need to be classified for mutagenicity in accordance with the criteria outline in Annex I of CLP (1272/2008/EC).
