Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The micronucleus test was performed according to Schmid (1976). The animals were treated at 0 and 24 h and bone-marrow smears were prepared at 30 h. 4 mice (2 male, 2 female) were used for each of 3 doses and 1 control. Slides were coded, and 1000 polychromatic erythrocytes were scored per mouse.
GLP compliance:
not specified
Type of assay:
chromosome aberration assay

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results: negative
Non-mutagen
Executive summary:

As part of an investigation into mutagenic effects of environmental compounds, three systems were used to evaluate the genetic toxicity of substances: the Sahnonella/microsome test, the Basc test on Drosophila and the micronucleus test on mouse bone marrow.

Result

Non-mutagen
