Any other information on results incl. tables

The test substance did not induce two fold increases in the number of revertant colonies at any dose-level, either in the absence or presence of S9 metabolism.

Toxicity as indicated by thinning of the background lawn, was observed at the highest dose-level in the absence of S9 metabolism in all tester strains with the exception of TA1538 and TA98. Tester strains TA100 and TA102 appeared to be more susceptible to the toxic effect of the test substance and reductions in revertant numbers, thinning of the background lawn and/or microcolony formation were observed at higher dose-levels, in the absence and presence of S9 metabolism.

Positive control treatments produced marked increases in revertant numbers, indicating the correct functioning of the assay system.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The test substance does not induce reverse mutation in Salmonella typhimurium with and without metabolic activation, under the reported experimental conditions.
