- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- Positive controls:
without S9 mix: Mitomycin C, 0.1 µg/ml (for 4 hour treatment) and 0.03 µg/ml (for 18 hour treatment)
with S9 mix: Cyclophosphamide, 2 µg/ml
Chromosomes were prepared 18 and 30 hours (for 4 hour treatment) or 18 hours (for 18 hour treatment) after start of treatment with test substances. The treatment interval was 4 hours with and without metabolic activation and 18 hours without metabolic activation. In each experimental group two paralell cultures were set up. Per culture 100 metaphases were scored for structural chromosomal aberrations. Polyploid metaphases were recorded. - Evaluation criteria:
- An increased incidence of gaps of both types without concomitant increase of other aberration types was not considered as indication of a clastogenic effect.
A test was considered positive, if there was a relevant and statistically significant increasein the aberration rate.
A test was considered negative, if there was no such increase at any time interval.
A test was also considered negative, if there were statistical significant values, which were, however, within the range of historical negative controls.
In addition, a test was considered equivocal if there was an increase of aberrant metaphases above the range of attached historical negative controls, provided the increase was not significant and the result of the negative control was not closely related to the data of the respective treatment group. A test was also considered equivocal, if its result was implausible. - Statistics:
- Statistical significance at the 5% level (p<0.05) was evaluated by means of the chi-square test. Evaluation was performed only for cells carrying aberrations exclusive gaps.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Executive summary:
The clastogenic potential of the test substance was evaluated in a chromosome aberration test on Chinese hamster V79 cells in the presence and absence of S9 mix according to OECD TG 473.
None of the cultures treated with the test substance in the absence and in the presence of S9 mix showed biologically relevant or statistically significant increased numbers of aberrant metaphases.
Based on this test, the test substance is considered not to be clastogenic for mammalian cells in vitro.
