- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- Bacterial cultures and S-9 mix or phosphate buffer and vehicle or test item were incubated for 20 min at 37 deg. C. Two milliliters molten Top Agar, trace histidine or trypthophan, were added to the mixtures. The mixture was plated on Minimal Agar plates and incubated for 48 hours at 37 deg. c.
- Evaluation criteria:
- Following criteria are used for determining a positive result:
1. A dose-related increase in mutant frequency over the dose range tested
2. A reproducible increase at one or more concentrations
3. Biological relevance against in-house historical control ranges
4. Statistical analysis of data as determined by UKEMS
5. Fold increase greater than two times the concurrent solvent control for any tester strain
A test item will be considered non-mutagenic (negative) in the test system if the above criteria are not met.
Although most experiments will give clear negative or positive results, in some instances the data generated will prohibit making a definitive judgement about test item activity. Results of this type will be reported as equivocal. - Statistics:
- Statistical analysis of data is conducted as determined by UKEMS (Mahon et al., 1989, UKEMS sub-committee on guidelines for mutagenicity testing, (Kirkland D J Ed.) Cambridge University Press Report, 26-65.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results:
negative with metabolic activation
negative without metabolic activation
The test item was tested for mutagenic potential using in vitro bacterial reverse mutation test. The test substance did not exert mutagenic activity both in the presence and the absence of metabolic activation. - Executive summary:
The test item was tested for the mutagenic potential using in vitro bacterial reverse mutation test (Ames test)(corresponding to the OECD No. 471). A preliminary range-finding assay was performed using four strains of Salmonella typhimurium (TA100, TA1535, TA98 and TA1537) and one strain of E. Coli WPuvrA) up to a maximum dose of 5.0 mg/plate to determine the optimal non-toxic test dose. The test item was either tested up to the maximum recommended dose level of 5.0 mg/plate or the toxic limit depending o bacterial strain type and presence or absence of S9-mix.
Test item did not produce any significant increase of mutation frequency in any of these strains, with any dose of the test item, either in the absence or presence of metabolic activation. Based on the study results the test substance is considered to be non-mutagenic.
The test result is used as a key value in the hazard assessment.
