RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: To select the dose range for the mutagenesis assay, the test chemical was checked for toxicity to TA100 up to a concentration of 10 mg/plate or the limit of solubility, both in the presence and absence of S-9 mix. One or more parameters were used as an indication of toxicity: viability on complete medium and reduced numbers of revertant colonies per plate and/or thinning or absence of the bacterial lawn. If toxicity was not apparent in the preliminary toxicity determination, the highest dose tested was 10 mg/plate; otherwise the upper limit of solubility was used. If toxicity was observed, the doses of test chemical were chosen so that the high dose exhibited some degree of toxicity. Occasionally, in the earlier tests, the high dose was greater than 10 mg/plate.
COMPARISON WITH HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA: No data
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY: No data - Remarks on result:
- other: No mutagenic potential
- Conclusions:
- The test chemical did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
- Executive summary:
Gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. The study was performed by the preincubation protocol using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. Preincubation was carried at 37°C for 20 mins followed by exposure period of 48 hrs at dose levels of 0, 3.3, 10, 33, 100, 333, 1000 or 3333µg/plate. DMSO was used as solvent control and concurrent positive control chemicals were included in the study. A dose related increase in the number of revertants was noted whether it be twofold over background or not.
The test chemical did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.

- 2. A dose related increase in the number of revertants was noted whether it be twofold over background or not
3. To be considered mutagenic, a test article treatment had to induce at least twice the number of revertants/plate in atleast 1 tester strain compared to those induced in the appropriate vehicle control and exhibit an increasing number of revertants/plate with increasing test article dosage

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: To select the dose range for the mutagenesis assay, the test chemical was checked for toxicity to TA100 up to a concentration of 10 mg/plate or the limit of solubility, both in the presence and absence of S-9 mix. One or more parameters were used as an indication of toxicity: viability on complete medium and reduced numbers of revertant colonies per plate and/or thinning or absence of the bacterial lawn. If toxicity was not apparent in the preliminary toxicity determination, the highest dose tested was 10 mg/plate; otherwise the upper limit of solubility was used. If toxicity was observed, the doses of test chemical were chosen so that the high dose exhibited some degree of toxicity. Occasionally, in the earlier tests, the high dose was greater than 10 mg/plate.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The test chemical did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
- Executive summary:
Data available for the various test chemicals was reviewed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. The studies are as mentioned below:
Gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. The study was performed by the preincubation protocol using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. Preincubation was carried at 37°C for 20 mins followed by exposure period of 48 hrs at dose levels of 0, 3.3, 10, 33, 100, 333, 1000 or 3333µg/plate. DMSO was used as solvent control and concurrent positive control chemicals were included in the study. A dose related increase in the number of revertants was noted whether it be twofold over background or not. The test chemical did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
In anothet study, gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. The study was performed by the plate incorporation method using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system. The test chemical was dissolved in 100% ethanol and doses selected for the study were 0, 9.85, 19.7, 39.3, 78.5, 157, 313, 625, 1250, 2500 or 5000 µg/plate. Concurrent solvent control and positive chemical was also included in the study. 2-Methylisoborneol did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100 both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
In yet another study, gene mutation toxicity study was performed to determine the mutagenic nature of the test chemical. The study was performed by the plate incorporation method using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100 both in the absence of S9 metabolic activation system. The doses selected for the study were 0, 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0 or 10.0 µmoles/plate. Concurrent solvent control chemical was also included in the study. The test chemical was toxic to the bacterial strain but it did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA100 both in the absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
Based on the data available, the test chemical did not induce mutation in the Salmonella typhimurium strains both in the presence and absence of S9 metabolic activation system and hence is not likely to classify as a gene mutant in vitro.
