Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The substance N4-acetylsulfanilamide (121-61-9) was considered to be not mutagenic in S. typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100 by AMES test .
Executive summary:

N4-acetylsulfanilamidewere tested by using preincubation method for their mutagenic potential in theS. typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100at concentration0.00, 1, 4 and 8 mg/plate. The substance was tested , with and without metabolic activation. DMSO was used as negative control.Sodium azide and 4NQO used as positive control for TA100 and TA98 respectively with metabolic activation and AFB (0.003 µ/plate) for both TA100 and TA98 without metabolic activation.A number of revertant coloniesin treated cultures greater than 2 times the solventcontrol revertant colonies is considered apositive response. But there was no increase in revertant colonies in test substance, when compare to solvent control. Therefore, the substanceN4-acetylsulfanilamide was considered to be not mutagenic in S. typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100. Hence the substance cannot be classified as gene mutant in vitro.
