Results and discussion

Additional information on results:

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: No reduction in the number of revertants/plate was observed in the rangefinding study with strains TA100 and WP2uvrA.


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY: No cytotoxicity was observed in the dose rangefinding study with strains TA100 and WP2uvrA with or without metabolic activation.

Any other information on results incl. tables

No cytotoxic response was seen in the dose range finding study.

The positive control exhibited at least a 3 fold increase in revertant colonies.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

The test material was not mutagenic to Salmonella and E. Coli strains with and without metabolic activation.
Executive summary:

In a reverse gene mutation assay in bacteria, strains TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA 1537 of S. typhimurium and E. coli WP2uvrA were exposed to an analog of C20-C24 alkaryl calcium salt derivative, at concentrations of 100, 330, 1000, 3330 and 10000 µg/plate in the presence and absence of mammalian metabolic activation. 

 

The positive controls induced the appropriate responses in the corresponding strains.   There was no evidence of induced mutant colonies over background.

 

This study is classified as acceptable.  This study satisfies the requirement for Test Guideline OECD 471 for in vitro mutagenicity (bacterial reverse gene mutation) data.
