MA: metabolic activation

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No mutagenic activity was detected with and without metabolic activation even at cytotoxic concentrations in the Ames test using S.typhimurium TA98, 100, 1535, 1537 and E. coli WP2uvrA.
Executive summary:

The study is comparable to OECD Guideline 471 with acceptable restrictions (no details about the test substance solution used [55.2% test substance]; no data on pH; no analytical control of test solutions; no data about historical controls [but vehicle control within values published elsewhere]).

In the Ames test with S.typhimurium TA98, 100, 1535, 1537 and E. coli WP2uvrA the test substance was studied using two different protocols with and without addition of a metabolic activation system: the standard plate test (dose levels: 0; 40; 200; 1000; 5000 and 10000 µg/plate) and the preincubation method (0; 20; 100; 500; 2500 and 5000 µg/plate or in a 2nd trial 0; 62.5; 125; 250; 500 and 1000 µg/plate). Negative and positive controls were valid. In each test system cytotoxic concentrations were reached. There was no increase in revertants in any strain.

Conclusion: No mutagenic activity was detected with and without metabolic activation even at cytotoxic concentrations in the Ames test using S.typhimurium TA98, 100, 1535, 1537 and E. coli WP2uvrA.
