Method

Species / strainopen allclose all
Species / strain / cell type:
E. coli WP2 uvr A pKM 101
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
S9-mix 10% (v/v)
Vehicle / solvent:
• Negative controls :
o absolute negative control containing no test item corresponding to the spontaneous
reversion rate,
o solvent used to solubilize positive controls : Acetone, DMSO, NaCl 0.15 M
• Vehicle used to solubilize test item : DMSO
• Positive control
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
yes
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
no
True negative controls:
yes
Positive controls:
yes
Positive control substance:

Details on test system and experimental conditions:
The assay is performed using five concentrations of the test item both in the absence and
presence of metabolic activation by a microsomal fraction of Rat liver. After a suitable period of
incubation, revertant colonies are counted and compared to the number of spontaneous
revertants.
Evaluation criteria:
The following validity criteria were checked to validate each experiment:
• the bacteriostatic activity of the highest concentration tested shall be equal to or less than 75
%,
• the spontaneous reversion rate of the absolute negative control shall comply with the
historical values of the laboratory,
• In presence of the solvent the spontaneous reversion rate shall comply with the historical
values of the absolute negative control of the laboratory.
• the mean number of revertant colonies obtained for each strain and the corresponding
positive control, with and/or without metabolic activation shall comply with the historical
values of the laboratory.
• Negative and positive values should not show significant difference with the historical
values of the laboratory (± 2 standard deviations)
