Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
In Ames tests with multiple strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA1535, TA1537, TA1538, TA98, TA100, TA97 and TA102 and/or Saccharomyces cerevisiae, L-glutamic acid did not induce gene mutation in bacteria in vitro both with and without metabolic activation.
