negative
Executive summary:

In an OECD Guideline 471/472 study, S. typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100 and E. coli WP2 uvr A were exposed to the N,N-dimethylisopropylamine in water at 0, 20, 100, 500, 2500 and 5000 µg/plate in the standard plate test with and without S9-mix, and at 0, 4, 20, 100, 500 and 2500 µg/plate (Salmonella strains) or 0, 20, 100, 500, 2500 and 5000 µg/plate (E. coli WP2 uvrA) in the preincubation test with and without S9-mix (Aroclor-induced rat liver S9 mix). Positive and negative (vehicle) controls were included in the study. N,N-dimethylisopropylamine did not induce revertants in any bacterial strains tested both with and without metabolic activation, a cytotoxic effect was seen in some strains in the highest concentration.
