Observations:
The bacterial background lawn was not reduced at all concentrations tested and no biologically relevant decrease in the number of revertants was observed. The presence of 5 and 10% (v/v) liver microsomal activation did not influence these findings. T-7479 did not induce a dose-related, two-fold increase in the number of revertant (His+) colonies in each of the four tester strains (TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100) and in the number of revertant (Trp+) colonies in tester strain WP2uvrA both in the absence and presence of S9-metabolic activation. These results were confirmed in an independently repeated experiment.
