Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

Based on results under the conditions of this test the substance was not considered to be mutagenic to Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA 1535, TA98, TA1537 & E coli WP2 uvrA.
Executive summary:

A bacterial reverse mutation assay (Ames test) has been undertaken following OECD test methods.

The substance does not induce reverse mutation in Salmonella typhimurium or Escherichia coli.
