Details on test system and experimental conditions:

METHOD OF APPLICATION: under the direct incorporation of agar medium plate and the pre-incubation procedures


DURATION
- Preincubation period: 30 min at 37°C when the pre-incubation procedure is used.
- Exposure duration:48-72 h at 37°C
- Expression time (cells in growth medium): counting completed at the end of the exposure period in each plate


NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Triplicate, in parallel with negative and positive controls and the solvent of test material.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: decrease in the number of revertant colonies or a clearing or diminution of the background lawn.

Evaluation criteria:

A positive result involved taking into account a dose-response effect in the range tested and/or a reproducible increase at one or more concentrations in the number of revertant colonies per plate in at least one strain with or without metabolic activation system.
The result is considered positive whenever the number of revertants of the test item treated plates is higher than those observed in the solvent treated plates, according to the following criteria:
- TA98 strain : 2 fold higher
- TA100 strain: 2 fold higher
- TA1535 strain : 3 fold higher
- TA1537 strain : 3 fold higher
- WP2 (pkM101) : 2 fold higher

The biological relevance of the results was also considered.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Doses (5 000, 1 500, 500, 150 and 50 μg/plate) performed from solutions of the test item, provided by BIMA 83, do not induce any mutagenic change in Salmonella typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and in Escherichia coli WP2 (uvrA-) (pKM 101) without, or with metabolic activation, according to the OECD Guidelines n°471.

Executive summary:

Assay : Bacterial reverse mutation test using «Salmonella typhimurium his-» and «Escherichia coli» WP2(uvrA-)(pKM101) according to OECD guideline n° 471.

Solutions (GJV130617-S2 and GJV200617-S2) obtained from GJV240417-2, have been tested for their capacity to induce reverse mutation in four Salmonella typhimurium strains and one Escherichia coli WP2(uvr A¯)(pKM101) strain.

This study was performed in the absence and presence of metabolic activation. Two independent assays were carried out

For assay n° 1, various concentrations of GJV130617-S2 were put in contact with the strains in the absence and presence of a metabolic activation system (S9-mix 10% (v/v)).

For assay n° 2, various concentrations of GJV200617-S2 were put in contact with the strains in the absence of metabolic activation and with pre-incubation in the presence of metabolic activation system (S9-mix 10% (v/v)).

For the two assays, negative and positive controls were carried out in parallel. Positive controls induced a significant increase in the number of revertant colonies compared to negative controls. There is no significant difference between the number of spontaneous reversions, the number of reversions obtained in the positive controls (without and with metabolic activation), and the mean of corresponding experimental “historical” obtained in the laboratory.

These results validate the two tests.

There is no evidence of any increase in the number of revertant colonies in the presence of the various concentration of the test item (5 000, 1 500, 500, 150 et 50 μg/plate), without and with metabolic activation in Salmonella typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and in Escherichia coli WP2(uvrA¯) (pKM 101).

Conclusion:

Doses (5 000, 1 500, 500, 150 and 50 μg/plate) prepared from solutions of the test item do not induce any mutagenic change in Salmonella typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and in Escherichia coli WP2 (uvrA¯) (pKM 101) without, or with metabolic activation, according to the OECD Guidelines n° 471.
