- SOURCE OF TESTER STRAINS: Strains of salmonella typhimurium and E. Coli were obtained from Moltox. Bacterial strains used for the study were grown from controlled Working Banks obtained from Master Banks (generated in Vivotecnia).
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation) and preincubation
DURATION
- Preincubation period: 20 min at 37 °C
- Exposure duration: 37 °C for 48 h
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3 plates/dose
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: A reduction in the number of colonies in a dose-dependent manner compared to negative control for any strain and condition might indicate cytotoxicity.
OTHER:
- After an incubation of about 72 hours at about 37 ºC, the number of colonies per plate was counted.
Data are presented as the number of colonies present per plate (mean ± standard deviation). The R ratio is calculated as follows:
R = Number of revertant colonies in the presence of the test item / Number of revertant colonies in the absence of the test item
- Test item solubility: The solubility of the test item was evaluated in a standard solvent panel (milliQ water, ethanol 96%, DMSO and corn oil). Observation of precipitation by the unaided eye indicated that the test item is not soluble. The test item was found to be soluble in ethanol (96%).
- Test item sterility assay: The sterility of the test item was assayed by adding of 5 μL/plate to a minimal agar plate and incubating at 37 °C for 48 h. No growth was observed in the minimal agar plate after incubation with the test item. - Evaluation criteria:
- Several criteria are used for determining a positive result: a dose-response in the range tested and / or a reproducible increase at one or more concentrations in the number of revertant colonies per plate in at least one strain with or without metabolic activation system.
Positive results from the bacterial reverse mutation test indicate that a test item induces point mutations or frame-shifts in the genome of the tested bacterial strains.
Negative results from the test indicate that under the test conditions, the test item neither mutagenic nor-pro-mutagenic in the tested experimental system. - Statistics:

CYTOTOXICITY TEST:
A decrease in the number of revertant colonies >50% compared to solvent reference was observed, indicating cytotoxicity of the test item. The lowest cytotoxic concentration was 1.67μl/plate, used as the highest formulation in Ames test.
MUTAGENICITY TEST:
- None of the concentrations assayed for the test item showed an increase in the R value either with or without S9 metabolic activation regardless of the procedure.
- No dose response was observed in any of the tested bacterial strains.
HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA
- Positive and negative controls showed absolute numbers of revertant colonies comparable to historical data of the test facility. - Conclusions:
- Under the test condition, the test material is not mutagenic in the presence and absence of metabolic activation in S. typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100, and E.coli WP2uvrA.
- Executive summary:
In a reverse gene mutation assay performed according to the OECD test guideline No. 471 and in compliance with GLP, strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100) and Escherichia coli WP2(pKM101) were exposed to the test item diluted in ethanol (95%) at the following concentrations both in the presence and absence of metabolic activation system (10% v/v S9).
Cytotoxicity test: 0.06, 0.19, 0.56, 1.67 and 5μL/plate in TA 100 without S9 under the direct plate incorporation method
Main test: 0.02, 0.06, 0.19, 0.56 and 1.67 μL/plate in TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and WP2(pKM101) with and without S9 under the direct plate incorporation method.
Confirmation test: 0.02, 0.06, 0.19, 0.56 and 1.67 μL/plate in TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and WP2(pKM101) with and without S9 under the pre-incubation method.
Negative and positive control groups were also included in mutagenicity tests.
Positive and negative controls showed absolute numbers of revertant colonies comparable to historical data. All positive controls showed valid ratios (R) above 2.5.
Cytotoxic effect was observed at 1.67 μL/plate. None of the concentrations assayed for the test item showed an increase in the R value either with or without S9 metabolic activation regardless of the procedure. No dose response for the test item was observed in any of the tested bacterial strains.
Under the test condition, the test material is not mutagenic with and without metabolic activation in S. typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100, and E.coli WP2uvrA.
This study is considered as acceptable and satisfies the requirement for reverse gene mutation endpoint.

Gene mutation Assay:
A Bacterial Reverse mutation Assay (Ames test) was performed according to OECD guideline No. 471 with the substance(See Table 7.6/1). No significant increases in the frequency of revertant colonies were recorded for any of the bacterial strains under the test conditions, with any dose of the substance, either in the presence or absence of metabolic activation. The substance does not induce gene mutations in bacteria whereas all positive control chemicals (with and without metabolic activation) induced significant increase of colonies.The substance is therefore considered as non-mutagenic according to the Ames test.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Harmonized classification:
The substance has no harmonized classification for human health according to the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
Self classification:
Based on the available data, no additional classification is proposed regarding genetic toxicity according to the Annex I of the Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP) and to the GHS.
