Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

Cedrene Washed did not induce any dose related increase of the number of revertant colonies / plate in any of the 5 tester strains.

Therefore, it can be concluded that Cedrene washed is devoid of mutanic activity in the Ames test under the described experimental conditions.
