Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The TS caused no chromosomal aberrations or polyploidy in Chinese hamster lung cells (CHL/IU), with or without an exogenous metabolic activation system.
Executive summary:

The TS was tested in an in vitro mammalian chromosome aberration test with Chinese hamster lung cells (CHL/IU) according to OECD Guideline No. 473.

The test concentrations were as follows:

-S9 mix (continuous treatment; 24 or 48 hrs): 0, 0.0038, 0.0075 and 0.015 mg/mL

-S9 mix (short-term treatment; 6 hrs): 0, 0.0019, 0.0038 and 0.0075 mg/mL

+S9 mix (short-term treatment; 6 hrs): 0, 0.03, 0.06 and 0.12 mg/mL.

The TS caused no chromosomal aberrations or polyploidy in Chinese hamster lung cells (CHL/IU), with or without an exogenous metabolic activation system.
