Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (CHL/IH cells) were used. The cells were supplied by Health Science Research Resources Bank on November 2nd, 2004 and cells with small number of subcultivations were stored in liquid nitrogen. Melted and subcultured cells were used for tests. The numbers of subcultivations for cells were 25 for cell growth inhibition test, 5 for short-term treatment of chromosomal aberration test and 9 for continuous treatment of chromosomal aberration test.
Incubation conditions
Cells were cultured in a carbon dioxide incubator with 5% CO2 and at 37oC under high humid condition. Subcultivations were carried out every day to every 4-days.
Characterization of the cell
Cells used for test were thawed from frozen preservation. Cells which had less than 30 number of subcultivations were evaluated at the regular intervals for their modal chromosome number, doubling time and contamination of mycoplasma and confirmed their applicability.

The substance did not induce structural aberration nor numerical aberration - Executive summary:
The study was performed to determine the clastogenecity of the test substance in cultured chinese hamster lung cell line (CHL).
In the main and confirmation test, the highest concentration was determined at 1600 μg/mL (about 10 mM) in either the absence (S9-) or presence (S9+) of metabolic activation system, because no growth inhibition more than 50 % was observed in the concentration range-finding test.
Therefore, the test substance was determined not to induce chromosome aberration in the CHL cell under the present experimental condition.

- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- The experimental protocol is presented in detail by Myhr et al.(1985). Sodium xylenesulfonate was supplied as a coded aliquot by Radian Corporation. The high dose of sodium xylenesulfonate was determined by toxicity. L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells were maintained at 37 °C as suspension cultures in Fischer’s medium supplemented with l-glutamine,sodium pyruvate, pluronic F68, antibiotics and heatinactivated horse serum; normal cycling time was approximately 10 hours. To reduce the number of spontaneously occurring trifluorothymidine-resistant cells, subcultures were exposed to medium containing THMG (thymidine, hypoxanthine, methotrexate and glycine) for 1 day to medium containing THG (thymidine, hypoxanthine and glycine) for 1 day and to normal medium for 3 to 5 days. For cloning, the horse serum content was increased and Noble agar was added.
All treatment levels within an experiment, including concurrent positive and solvent controls, were replicated. Treated cultures contained 6E+6 cells in 10 mL medium. This volume included the S9 fraction in those experiments performed with metabolic activation. Incubation with sodium xylenesulfonate continued for 4 hours at which time the medium plus sodium xylenesulfonate was removed and the cells were resuspended in fresh medium and incubated for an additional 2 days to express the mutant phenotype. Cell density was monitored so that log phase growth was maintained. After the 48 -hour expression period, cells were plated in medium and soft agar supplemented with trifluorothymidine(TFT) for selection of TFTresistant (TK-/-) cells; cells were plated in nonselective medium and soft agar to determine cloning efficiency. Plates were incubated at 37 °C in 5% CO2 for 10 to 12 days. The test was initially performed without S9. If a clearly positive response was not obtained, the test was repeated using freshly prepared S9 from the livers of Aroclor 1254-induced male Fischer 344/N rats. - Rationale for test conditions:
- The experimental protocol is presented in detail by Myhr et al.(1985).
- Evaluation criteria:
- Minimum criteria for accepting an experiment as valid and a detailed description of the statistical analysis and data evaluation are presented in Casparyet al.(1988). All data were evaluated statistically for trend and peak responses. Both responses had to be significant (P≤0.05) for sodium xylenesulfonate to be considered positive, i.e. capable of inducing TFT resistance. A single significant response led to a “questionable” conclusion, and the absence of both a trend and peak response resulted in a “negative” call.

Sodium xylenesulfonate displays no gene mutation. - Executive summary:
The gene mutation assay of Sodium xylenesulfonate has been assessed using L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells with concurrent positive and solvent controls, were replicated.

Under the conditions of the test, Sodium xylenesulfonateis considered to display no gene mutation.
Referenceopen allclose all
As the results of chromosomal aberration test, test substance did not induce an increase of the frequencies of the cells with structural aberration and polyploid in the short-term treatments both without and with metabolic activation. Furthermore, in the 24 hours and 48 hours treatments the increase of the cells with structural aberration and polyploid were not observed.
In each treatment method in the negative control, the frequencies of the cells and polyploid were within the negative judgment criteria and the same as the background data in the laboratory.
In each treatment method in the positive control, the frequencies of the cells with structural aberration and polyploid were beyond positive judgment criteria and the same chromosomal aberration induction as the background data in laboratory.
In addition to the above, the frequencies of cells with chromosomal aberrations did not fluctuate markedly between two culture dishes. These indicated that the present study was appropriately performed.
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed (negative)
Additional information
Bacterial Reverse Mutation assay:
In a reverse gene mutation assay in bacteria, performed according to the OECD No. 471 and EC B14 guidelines, sodium p-vinylbenzenesulphonate(81%) diluted in milli-Q water at concentration of 0.62, 1.85, 5.56, 16.67 and 50 mg/ml was tested in S. tryphimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100 in the presence and absence of mammalian metabolic activation (S9) using the direct incorporation or the preincubation method. The positive controls induced the appropriate responses in the corresponding strains.
No induced revertants over background was observed in any strains of S. triphimirium up to the highest concentration of sodium p-vinylbenzenesulphonate.
Under the test conditions, sodium p-vinylbenzenesulphonate did not show any mutagenic activity in the bacterial reverse mutation test using Salmonella typhimurium. This study is considered as acceptable as it satisfied the criteria of the OECD Guideline No. 471.
Mammalian chromosome aberration assay:
The study was performed to determine the clastogenecity of the test substance in cultured chinese hamster lung cell line (CHL).
In the main and confirmation test, the highest concentration was determined at 1600 μg/mL (about 10 mM) in either the absence (S9-) or presence (S9+) of metabolic activation system, because no growth inhibition more than 50 % was observed in the concentration range-finding test.
Therefore, the test substance was determined not to induce chromosome aberration in the CHL cell under the present experimental condition.
Gene mutation assay:
The gene mutation assay of Sodium xylenesulfonate has been assessed using L5178Y mouse lymphoma cells with concurrent positive and solvent controls, were replicated. Treated cultures contained 6×106cells in 10mL medium with and without S9 metabolic activation. The positive controls gave appropriate responses. Under the conditions of the test, Sodium xylenesulfonateis considered to display no gene mutation.
Short description of key information:
- Bacterial Reverse Mutation assay (Ames test): not mutagenic (K, Reliablity 1)
- In vitro Mammalian chromosome aberration test: not cytogenic (K, Reliability 1)
Endpoint Conclusion: No adverse effect observed (negative)
