Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The substance Neononyl acetate was not mutagenic to Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1535 and TA1537 in an Ames test in the presence and absence of metabolic activation (S9-mix).
Executive summary:

The potential of the test substance Neononyl acetate to induce reverse mutations in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1535 and TA1537 was tested in an Ames test under GLP in accordance with OECD TG 471. The test substance was dissolved in ethanol and tested in concentrations ranging from 5 to 5000 µg/plate in the presence and absence of a metabolic activation (S9-mix obtained from liver homogenates from Sprague-Dawley male rats aged 8 to 10 weeks). All strains were incubated at 37 °C for 48 to 72 hours in three replicates. In the presence of S9-mix the substance was cytotoxic to strains TA98, 100, 102 and 1535 at 500 µg/plate and to strain TA1537 at 1500 µg/plate. In the absence of S9-mix bacteriotoxicity to strain TA102 was seen at 1500 µg/plate and toxicity to strains TA98, 100, 1535 and 1537 occurred at 5000 µg/plate. Precipitation of the test compound on the plates was not observed. The test substance did not induce a significant or dose-related increase in the mutation frequency of all tested strains in the absence or presence of S9-mix. The number of spontaneous revertants observed in the controls was comparable to historical controls. The results of the positive control substances confirmed the known reversion properties and the specificity of the tested strains as well as the activity of the metabolising system.

It was concluded that the substance Neononyl acetate under the experimental conditions of an Ames test was not mutagenic to bacteria (Salmonella typhimurium) strains TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1535 and TA1537 in the absence and presence of metabolising system S9-mix.
