Method

Target gene:
Histidine gene locus
Species / strain
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102
Additional strain / cell type characteristics:
not applicable
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
Aroclor 1254 induced male rat liver S9 mix
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
0, 50, 158, 500, 1581, 5000 µg/plate (first and repeat test)








Vehicle / solvent:
DMSO
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
yes
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
no
Remarks:
No solvent control was used since sufficient evidence was available in the literature and from testing laboratory experience, indicating that the solvents used had no influence on the spontaneous mutant counts of the used strains.
True negative controls:
no
Positive controls:
yes
Positive control substance:
other: sodium azide (only TA 1535), nitrofurantoin (only TA 100), 4-nitro-1,2-phenylene diamine (TA 1537 and TA 98), cumene hydroperoxide (only TA 102), 2-aminoanthracene.
Remarks:
The positive controls sodium azide, nitrofurantoin, 4-nitro-1,2-phenylene diamine and cumene hydroperoxide were only used without S9 mix; the positive control 2-aminoanthracene was only used with S9 mix.
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
METHOD: Standard plate test and preincubation test; each concentration including the controls was tested in triplicate.
Evaluation criteria:
A reproducible and dose-related increase in mutant counts of at least one strain is considered to be a positive result. For TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 100 and TA 98 this increase should be about twice that of negative controls. For TA 102 an increase of about 100 mutants should be reached. Otherwise, the result is evaluated as negative. However, these criteria may be overruled by good scientific judgment. In case of questionable results, investigations should continue, possibly with modifications, until a final evaluation is possible.
Statistics:

Doses up to and including 1581 µg per plate did not cause any bacteriotoxic effects. Total bacteria counts remained unchanged and no inhibition of growth was observed. At 5000 µg per plate, the substance had only a weak, strain-specific bacteriotoxic effect. Due to the weakness of this effect this dose could nevertheless be used for assessment purposes. Substance precipitation occurred at the dose 1581 µg per plate and above.

Evidence of mutagenic activity of Imidazotriazinon was not seen. No biologically relevant increase in the mutant count, in comparison with the negative controls, was observed.

The positive controls sodium azide, nitrofurantoin, 4-nitro-1,2-phenylene diamine, cumene hydroperoxide and 2-aminoanthracene had a marked mutagenic effect, as was seen by a biologically relevant increase in mutant colonies compared to the corresponding negative controls.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative
Executive summary:

The mutagenic potential of Imidazotriazinon was evaluated in a Salmonella/microsome test with the S. typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 1535 and TA 1537 in the presence and absence of S9 mix according to OECD TG 471. Evidence of mutagenic activity was not seen up to the maximum recommended dose level of 5000 µg/plate. No biologically relevant increase in the mutant count, in comparison with the negative controls, was observed. Based on this test, the test substance was considered to be non-mutagenic without and with S9 mix in the plate incorporation as well as in the preincubation modification of the Salmonella/microsome test.
