Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

Boldenone (ZK 5320) is not genotoxic under the conditions of this test system and therefore classification is not required.
Executive summary:

Boldenone (ZK 5320) did not show any mutagenic potential in a bacterial reverse mutation assay with S. typhymurium (TA 1535, TA 100, TA 1537, TA 102, TA 98) when tested up to 5.0 mg/plate in the absense and presense of intrinsic metabolic activation (liver mix from Aroclor 1254 -treated rats).
