Details on test system and experimental conditions:
EXPERIMENT 1
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation)
- DURATION: Exposure duration: 48 h
- NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3 test plates per dose or per control
- DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY: Toxicity detected by a reduced his- background growth, decrease in the number of his+ revertants

EXPERIMENT 2 and 3
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: preincubation
- DURATION: Preincubation period: 20 min; Exposure duration: 48 h
- NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3 test plates per dose or per control
- DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY: Toxicity detected by a reduced his- background growth, decrease in the number of his+ revertants
Evaluation criteria:
In general, a substance to be characterized as positive in the Ames test has to fulfill the following requirements:
- doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate (control)
- dose-response relationship
- reproducibility of the results

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

According to the results of the present study, the test substance is not mutagenic in the Ames test under the experimental conditions chosen here.
Executive summary:

In a GLP compliant mutagenicity test, performed according to OECD guideline 471, 4 Salmonella typhimurium strains (TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, and TA 100) were used to test the mutagenic potential of the test substance both with and without metabolic activation. Two experiments were performed; a standard plate test and preincubation test, respectively. In both tests, bacteria were exposed to 0, 1562.5, 3125, 6250, 12500, 25000 µg/plate. No precipitation of the test substance was found and no bacteriotoxic effect was observed. An increased in the number of his+ revertants was not observed in the standard plate test or in the preincubation test either without S9 mix or after the addition of a metabolizing system. It was therefore concluded that the test substance is not mutagenic under these experimental conditions.
