The intermediate and low doses were one tenth and one hundredth serial dilutions of the top dose (18.2 and 1.82 μg/ml)
COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA: Historically, the spontaneous damage levels for non-treated or vehicle controls are 0.0% - 8.0%. All vehicle controls for this study fall within accepted values (2.00%-5.34%).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
Test substance: All three dose levels, at both time periods, with and without metabolic activation showed types of damage and damage levels comparable to the vehicle and non-treated controls (2.00%-6.00%). These values fall well within historical spontaneous damage levels, observed in this laboratory.
Cyclophosphamide: The positive controls showed damage levels of 21.00%.
Nontreated control plus activation: The nontreated controls showed damage levels of 5.00%.
Nontreated control w/o activation: The nontreated controls showed damage levels of 2.00% - Remarks on result:

- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results:
negative
The test material, was examined for its ability to cause chromosomal mutations in CHinese Hamster Ovary cells when dosed at 182, 18.2 and 1.82 μg/ml with and without metabolic activation for 7.7 and 24 hours. The levels of damage observed were comparable to the controls and are well within the historical control data, or no effect, values.
Within the framework of the test system, the test substance appears to be incapable of cause cytogenetic damage to CHO cells. - Executive summary:
The cytogenetic activity of the test substance was evaluated in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, grown in vitro. The test material was administered in the culture medium at 182, 18.2 and 1.82 μg/ml with and without S9 activation. Test and control flasks were divided into two groups, harvested at about 7.5 and 24 hours following a one hour dosing period. Approximately two hours prior to harvest all flasks received 1 μg/ml of colcemid, to induce metaphase arrest in the cells. The metaphase cells were harvested and prepared for cytogenetic evaluation. Fifty metaphase spreads from each flask were evaluated, under code to avoid bias, for the presence of any and all structural abnormalities.
The cytogenetic evaulation revealed no levels of damage that were above the accepted spontaneous damage level for the system (less than 8.00%). The positive controls, however, showed a marked increase in chromosomal abnormalities (21.00%).
Within the framework of this test system the test substance was not found to cause increased chromosomal damage.

Approximately 9XE5 cells were plated in 30ml F20p with 2.5 μg/ml TFT. Concurrently, approximately 180 cells were plated in 30 ml F20p without a selective agent, to determine viable colony counts (VC).
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Relative suspension growths, relative cloning growths, relative total growths, mutant frequencies amd induced mutant frequencies were calculated.
Plates were labelled with study number, compound identification number, the dose administered, VC or TFT, +S9 or -S9. Colonies were enumerated after eleven days incubation at 36-38 deg C with 4.5-5% CO2. Plate counts were made with a Biotran III colony counter and recorded.
- Evaluation criteria:
- A test material is considered positive if it yields a 2-fold increase over the spontaneous mutant frequency of vehicle controls at one or more dose levels, if a dose related increase in response is observed and if the relative total growth is greater than 10%. Should the relative total growth, (survival) be less than 10% and a two-fold increase in mutant frequency observed, the test material will be considered negative.
- Statistics:
- The following equations were used in the data analysis of the forward mutation assay:
Relative Suspension Growth, % =
Total suspension growth of test culture / mean total suspension growth of vehicle controls x 100%
Relative cloning growth, % =
Mean number of VC Colonies on “X” treated plates / Average of mean of VC colonies on vehicle control plates x 100%
Relative total growth, % =
(Relative suspension growth, %) (Relative cloning growth, %) / 100%
Mutant Frequency (mutants / 10E4) =
Mean number of TFT colonies for “X” / Mean number of VC colonies for “X” x 2
Induced Mutant Frequency (IMF) = Mutant frequency of treated cultures - mean mutant frequency of vehicle control cultures
VC = Viable colonies
"X" = Dose being evaluated - Species / strain:
- mouse lymphoma L5178Y cells
- Metabolic activation:
- with and without
- Genotoxicity:
- negative
- Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:
- no cytotoxicity
- Vehicle controls validity:
- valid
- Untreated negative controls validity:
- valid
- Positive controls validity:
- valid
- Additional information on results:
- Dose selection for the repeat mutation assay* was based on a toxicity (dose determination) assay. The doses selected were 700, 900, 1100, 1300 and 1500 μg/ml. These were tested with and without metabolic activation.
*The initial mutation assay was repeated because plate count values were out of range.
Please see attached background material for Table 1 - Summary of mouse lymphoma mutagenicity data, and Table 2 - Mouse growth results with and without metabloic activation.
A mutant frequency greater than 2(X) the mean control mutant frequency was not observed at any dose. The positive (DMBA and EMS) and negative (Controls 1 and 2, + and - S9) controls responded in a manner consistant with data from previos analysis. - Remarks on result:
- other: strain/cell type: L5178Y cells
- Remarks:
- Migrated from field 'Test system'.
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information): negative
A mutant frequency that was greater than two times the mean vehicle control frequency was not observed at any dose level, nor was there any evidence of a dose related response.
For this reason, it can be concluded that, under the conditions of this assay, the test substance does not induce gene mutations in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells. - Executive summary:
The mutagenic activity of the test substance was tested in the L5178Y mouse lymphoma assay. The positive controls were dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA) and ethylmethanesulphonate (EMS). The substance was tested at 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500 μg/ml with and without metabolic activation. Following a three hour and 20 minute exposure period, test and control cultures were allowed a two day expression period. Cultures were cloned in selective medium, then incubated for eleven days. Surviving and mutant colonies were then counted and the mutant frequencies calculated.
There was no evidence of a dose related increase in mutagenic frequency, and the mutant frequencies were not significantly different from control at any dose. For this reason, it can be concluded that, under the conditions of this assay, the test substance does not induce gene mutations in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells.
The positive (DMBA, EMS) and negative (DMSO) controls responded in a manner consistant with data from previous studies.

Additional information
Ames test:
- Under the experimental conditions of this study, the test substance 2-Propanamine, N-[2-[2 - (2-methoxyethoxy)ethoxy]ethyl]-2-methyl- is not mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium/Escherichia coli reverse mutation assay in the absence and the presence of metabolic activation.
Read-across:
Chromosome abberation
The cytogenetic activity of the read across substance was evaluated in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, grown in vitro. The test material was administered in the culture medium at 182, 18.2 and 1.82 μg/ml with and without S9 activation. Test and control flasks were divided into two groups, harvested at about 7.5 and 24 hours following a one hour dosing period. Approximately two hours prior to harvest all flasks received 1 μg/ml of colcemid, to induce metaphase arrest in the cells. The metaphase cells were harvested and prepared for cytogenetic evaluation. Fifty metaphase spreads from each flask were evaluated, under code to avoid bias, for the presence of any and all structural abnormalities.
The cytogenetic evaulation revealed no levels of damage that were above the accepted spontaneous damage level for the system (less than 8.00%). The positive controls, however, showed a marked increase in chromosomal abnormalities (21.00%).
Within the framework of this test system the read across substance was not found to cause increased chromosal damage.
Mouse lymphoma
The mutagenic activity of the read across substance was tested in the L5178Y mouse lymphoma assay. The positive controls were dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA) and ethylmethanesulphonate (EMS). The substance was tested at 700, 900, 1100, 1300, 1500 μg/ml with and without metabolic activation. Following a three hour and 20 minute exposure period, test and control cultures were allowed a two day expression period. Cultures were cloned in selective medium, then incubated for eleven days. Surviving and mutant colonies were then counted and the mutant frequencies calculated.
There was no evidence of a dose related increase in mutagenic frequency, and the mutant frequencies were not significantly different from control at any dose. For this reason, it can be concluded that, under the conditions of this assay, the test substance does not induce gene mutations in L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells.
The positive (DMBA, EMS) and negative (DMSO) controls responded in a manner consistant with data from previous studies.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Classification, Labelling, and Packaging Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008
The available experimental test data are reliable and suitable for classification purposes under Regulation 1272/2008. Negative results were obtained with an Ames test of the registered substance as well as with an chromosome abberation and mouse lymphoma test with the read-across substance.
Therefore no classification for mutagenicity is required according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
