Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The test chemical did not induce gene mutation in S. typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100 with and without S9 liver fractions and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
Executive summary:

Ames test was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. The test chemical was dissolved in Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) at a dosage of 0, 3.15, 10, 31.5, 100, 315, 1000 or 3150 mg/plate (with S9) or 0, 100, 315, 945 or 3150 mg/plate (without S9). The test compound was dissolved in the incubation mixture up to the highest concentration. No indications of toxicity, such as a reduced his-background lawn, were observed. The test chemical did not induce gene mutation in S. typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100 with and without S9 liver fractions and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
