Evaluation criteria:

An individual trial was judged mutagenic (+) if a dose-related increase over the corresponding solvent control was seen, and it was judged weakly mutagenic C+W) if a low-level dose response was seen. A trial was considered questionable (?) if a dose-related increase was judged insufficiently high to justify a call of "+W," if only a single dose was elevated over the control, or if a non-dose-related increase was seen.

The chemical was judged to be mutagenic (+), or weakly mutagenic (+W), if it produced a reproducible, dose-related increase in his+ revertants over the corresponding solvent controls in replicate trials.

It chemical was considered to be questionable (?) if a reproducible increase of his+ revertants did not meet the criteria for either a " + " or " + W," or if only single doses produced an increase in his+ revertants in repeat trials.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: The chemical was tested initially in a toxicity assay to determine the appropriate dose range. The toxicity assay was performed by using TA100 or the system developed by Waleh et al. Toxic concentrations were those at which a decrease in the number of his+ colonies was seen or at which there was a clearing in the density of the background lawn

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Lauryl ethanolamide did not induce a reproducible, dose-related increase in his+ revertants over the corresponding solvent in the S. typhimurium tester strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is negative for mutation in vitro.

Executive summary:

Salmonella/microsome test in the absence of exogenous metabolic activation and in the presence of liver S-9 from Aroclor-induced male Sprague-Dawley rats and Syrian hamsters was performed to evaluate the mutagenic nature of Lauryl ethanolamide usingS. typhimuriumtester strains TA1535, TA97, TA98 and TA100. The study was performed as per the preincubation assay and the preincubation time was 20 mins and the plates were incubated for 48 hrs.

 

The test compound was dissolved in DMSO and was used at a dosage level of 0, 3.3, 10, 33.0, 100, 333, 1000 or 3333 µg/plate in the preincubation assay of 48 hrs. Concurrent solvent and positive control chemicals were included in the study.

 

Lauryl ethanolamide did not induce a reproducible, dose-related increase in his⁺revertants over the corresponding solventin theS. typhimuriumtester strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is negative for mutation in vitro.
