Any other information on results incl. tables
The statistically significant increase in frequency of micronuclei is considered to be of no biological relevance for the following reasons:
- The frequency of micronuclei at this sampling time point (0.18%) is not above the frequency of micronuclei of controls generally observed in this test laboratory (0.07 - 0.22%). The statistical significance in this case is caused by the low frequency of micronuclei in the control group (0.02%) which deviates downwards from the so far observed frequencies for controls. After addition of male and female animals of sampling time point 72 h into one group there is no more a statistically significant difference.
- A delayed effect based on slow excretion is improbable for sodium cumenesulphonate as sulphonic acids in general are readily absorbed and do not show any tendency for accumulation. But this kind of detention is regarded as prerequisite to explain based on the kinetic of erythrocyte maturation an impact on micronuclei frequency at sampling time point of 72 hours.
The results of the positive control affirm the sensitivity of the mouse strain to mutagenic substances.The frequency of micronuclei in polychromatic erythrocytes was considerably increased compared to the control group.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information): negativeAll male mice treated with the test substance showed no statistically significant increase in micronucleus frequency at any sampling time compared to control animals. For the female mice treated with the test substance at sampling times 24 and 48 hours after treatment also no statistically significant increase in micronucleus frequency was observed. Only at sampling time point 72 hours a statistically significant increase of polychromatic erythrocytes with micronuclei compared to control animals was observed. This effect was regarded as biologically not relevant as this increase ís based on the exceptional low micronucleus frequency of vehicle control group.Sodium cumenesulphonate under these test conditions is regarded as not mutagenic in the micronucleus test.
