Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Method

Species / strain
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and E. coli WP2
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
10 % S9 Mix with Strain 98: (with and without metabolic activation): 50, 160, 500,1600 and 5000 µg/plate
10 % S9 Mix with the other strains: 16,50,160,500, 1600 and 5000 µg/ plate.
30% S9 Mix with the range 16-5000 µg/plate.
Controls
Untreated negative controls:
yes
Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
yes
Positive controls:
yes
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
Experimental conditions in the incubator 37 °C.
Evaluation criteria:
Criteria for a valid assay: The solvent control data correspond to the laboratory´s normal control range for the spontaneous mutant frequency.
Positive controls induce increases in the muation frequency which are significant and correspond to the laboratory´s normal range.

Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The findings indicate that the test substance is not mutagenic under the test conditions, either in the absence nor in the presence of an exogenous metabolic activation.
