Materials and methods
Test guideline
- Qualifier:
- equivalent or similar to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 471 (Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay)
- Version / remarks:
- 26 May 1983
- Deviations:
- no
- Principles of method if other than guideline:
- Direct plate incorporation procedure was performed. No E. coli WP2 or S. typhimurium TA102 strain tested; no preincubation test performed. These requirements were first formulated in the adoption of the guideline in 1997 and thus the study was conducted prior to implementation of these requirements. The current OECD TG 471 requires at least 5 test strains and the use of E. coli WP2 strains or Salmonella typhimurium TA 102 to detect certain oxidizing mutagens, cross-linking agents and hydrazines. However, the substance is not a highly reactive agent and is therefore not expected to be a cross-linking agent, has no oxidizing properties and is no hydrazine. Thus, a GLP test according to former versions of OECD TG 471 without E. coli WP2 strains or Salmonella typhimurium TA 102 is considered as sufficient to evaluate the mutagenic activity of the substance in this bacterial test system.
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Remarks:
- - but a QA check was not performed
- Type of assay:

METHODS FOR MEASUREMENT OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: background growth inhibition - Evaluation criteria:
- The plates were scored for the number of mutant colonies with an automated colony counter (Artek M 982B, Artek Systems Corporation, Farmingdale, NY, USA). The arithmetic means of the number of mutant colonies of the 3 parallel plates in the negative control groups were compared with those of the compound groups. A positive response was considered if at least 5 mg/plate or up to a toxic dose had been tested (or the compound formed precipitates in the agar) and if the number of induced revertants compared to the number of spontaneous ones was reproducibly higher than 2-fold. A dose-dependent increase in the number of revertants was also considered to indicate a mutagenic effect.

STUDY RESULTS
- Concurrent vehicle negative and positive control data:
0.05 ml of the solvents (0.1 M sodium phosphate buffer or DMSO) were plated as negative controls. In order to check the activity of the metabolizing system and the mutability of the bacteria at least two reference mutagens were tested for each strain. Their mutagenic effect occurred either directly {9-AA, 2-NF, NaN3} or after metabolic activation (2-AA, BP, CP). Sterility controls were performed additionally.
According to the evaluation criteria the vehicle controls and the positive control were valid.

None of the five tester strains showed increased reversion to prototrophy with the test item at the concentrations tested, either in the absence or presence of S9 mix.
Growth inhibition of the background lawn was not observed. Precipitates in the agar were found starting at 1 mg/plate without S9 mix and at 2.5 mg/plate with metabolic activation.
Negative controls and positive controls with known mutagens (9-acridinamine hydrochloride, anthracen-2-amine, benzo(a)pyrene, cyclophosphamide, 2-nitro-9H-fluorene, sodium azide) produced the expected numbers of revertant colonies.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test item was tested for mutagenic activity effects in five histidine-dependent strains of S. typhimurium (TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and TA 1538 ) using the direct plate incorporation procedure equivalent to OECD TG 471. The study was performed with and without metabolic activation, employed a range of the test item concentrations from 0.1 to 5.0 mg per plate. No increased reversion to prototrophy was seen neither without nor with metabolic activation. Growth inhibition of the background lawn was not observed. Precipitation was found starting at 1 mg/plate without S9 mix and at 2.5 mg/plate with metabolic activation. Therefore, the test item was considered to be non-mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay.
- Executive summary:
In a reverse gene mutation assay in bacteria according to OECD TG 471 (adopted 26 May 1983), strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and TA 1538 of S. typhimurium were exposed to Epoxide-Valerate in DMSO at concentrations of 100, 250, 500, 1000, 2500, and 5000 µg/plate in the presence and absence of mammalian metabolic activation using the plate incorporation method.
The test item was tested limit concentration 5000 µg/plate. None of the five tester strains showed increased reversion to prototrophy at any of the concentrations tested between 100 and 5000 µg/plate, either in the absence or presence of S9 mix. The positive controls induced the appropriate responses in the corresponding strains. Growth inhibition of the background lawn was not observed. Precipitates in the agar were found starting at 1000 µg/plate without S9 mix and at 2500 µg/plate with metabolic activation.
This study is classified as acceptable. This study satisfies the requirement for Test OECD 471 for in vitro mutagenicity (bacterial reverse gene mutation) data.
The test material is considered non-mutagenic under the conditions of the test.
