Endpoint:
in vitro cytogenicity / chromosome aberration study in mammalian cells
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
August 16 - November 09, 2007
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 473 (In Vitro Mammalian Chromosome Aberration Test)
Version / remarks:
1997
GLP compliance:
yes
Type of assay:
in vitro mammalian chromosome aberration test
Species / strain / cell type:

with and without
Metabolic activation system:
liver S9 mix of Aroclor 1254 induced rats
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
Pre-test: 0, 10, 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, 1600 and 2400 for 4 and 18 hours treatment

Species / strain:
Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79)

Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:
no cytotoxicity
Vehicle controls validity:

Untreated negative controls validity:

Conclusions:
Based on this test, the test item is considered not to be clastogenic for mammalian cells in vitro.
Executive summary:

The clastogenic potential of the test item was evaluated in a chromosome aberration test in vitro. Initially Chinese hamster V79 cells were exposed in the absence and in the presence of S9 mix for 4 hours to concentrations of 600, 1200 and 2400 ug/ml.


Without S9 mix cytotoxic effects were not observed after 4 hours treatment and after 18 hours treatment. With S9 mix cytotoxic effects were observed at 2400 ug/ml. Precipitation in the medium did not occur. However, the test item  was tested up to and over the requested limit concentration of 10mM (equal to 2202 ug/ml).
None of the cultures treated with the test item in the absence and in the presence of S9 mix showed biologically relevant or statistically significant increased numbers of aberrant metaphases.
The positive controls mitomycin C and cyclophosphamide induced clastogenic effects and demonstrated the sensitivity of the test system and the activity of the used S9 mix.
Based on this test, the test item is considered not to be clastogenic for mammalian cells in vitro.
