Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative without metabolic activation
negative with metabolic activation

The substance was not mutagenic in the conditions of this test.
Executive summary:

A gene mutation study has been perfomed with the substance in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA 1535, TA1537 and TA1538 according to the guideline B13/14.

The concentrations applied were 25; 74; 222; 667 and 1000 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation from rat.

The results are negative with and without metabolic activation.
