Method

Target gene:
Histidine operon
Species / strain
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
Arochlor induced rat liver S9 fraction.
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
0. 25, 75, 225, 675 and 2025 ug/0.1 mL.
Vehicle / solvent:
DMSO
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
no
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
yes
True negative controls:
no
Positive controls:
yes
Positive control substance:
cyclophosphamide
Remarks:
Other positive controls were tester strain specific.

Migrated to IUCLID6: with S9 metabolic activation.
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
The tester strains were grown up overnight in nutrient broth. The pour-plate method was used. Platings for mutant selection were made in triplicate for controls and all dose levels of the test substance. To test tubes containing 2 mL of molten minimal top agar was added 0.1 ml of test solution, 0.1 mL of tester strain culture and either 0.5 ml of phosphate buffer or 0.5 ml of rat liver S9 fraction mix. The test tubes were rapidly mixed and poured over Vogel-Bonner Medium E minimal glucose bottom plates. The plates were incubated at 37 C for approximately 48 hr before being scored.
Evaluation criteria:
In order to be consider a positive mutational response, an increase of at least 2-fold over the solvent control background value must be observed.
Statistics:
No data

Additional information on results:
Treatment with Bisphenol F Diglycidylether induced dose-related mutational responses in tester strains TA 1535 and TA 100 with and without rat liver derived S9 metabolic activation preparation. For tester strain TA 1535 the increase of mutant frequency over the control background values was 10.4-fold without S9 metabolic activation and was 46.6-fold with S9 metabolic activation at the high dose level of 2025 ug/0.1 mL.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
positive

Bisphenol F Diglycidylether inducted a positive dose-related gene-mutation response in tester strains TA 1535 and TA 100 in the presence and absence of a rat liver derived S9 metabolic activation preparation. The mutational response appeared to be enhanced by S9 metabolic activation.
Executive summary:

Bisphenol F Diglycidylether was tested for induction of gene-mutation in a manner similar to O.E.C.D. Testing Guideline 471 with Ames/Salmonella tester strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100. Bisphenol F Diglycidylether inducted a positive dose-related gene-mutation response in tester strains TA 1535 and TA 100 in the presence and absence of a rat liver derived S9 metabolic activation preparation. The mutational response appeared to be enhanced by S9 metabolic activation.
