- Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
- Based on available solubility data, the highest achievable dose level to be used in the preliminary cytotoxicity test was 500 µg/mL, dose level limited by the solubility of the test item in the vehicle and by the treatment volume. Thus, using a test item stock formulation at the concentration of 10 mg/mL in the vehicle (i.e. water for injections) and a maximum treatment volume of 5% (v/v) in the culture medium, the dose levels selected for the treatment of the preliminary test were: 1, 10, 50, 100, 250 and 500 µg/mL.
At the highest tested dose level of 500 µg/mL, the pH of the culture medium was approximately 7.4 and the osmolality was 291 mOsm/kg H2O (both as the vehicle control). Therefore, none of the selected dose levels was considered to produce extreme culture conditions and the dose level of 500 µg/mL could be selected as the highest dose level for the main experiment. - Vehicle / solvent:

METHODS OF SLIDE PREPARATION AND STAINING TECHNIQUE USED:
After the final cell counting, the cells were washed with culture medium containing 10% inactivated horse serum and 1% pluronic acid. The cells were suspended in 49.5% culture medium containing 10% inactivated horse serum, 50% PBS and 0.5% pluronic acid, before being fixed.
Following the fixation, the cells were kept at 4°C for at least an overnight period.
Depending on the observation at the end of the recovery period (presence or absence of precipitate and/or cytotoxicity), three dose levels of the test item-treated cultures were selected for spreading on slides. Cells were dropped onto clean glass slides. The slides were air-dried before being stained for approximately 15 min in 5% Giemsa. Slides from vehicle and positive controls cultures were also prepared as described above.
NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: 1000 mononucleated cells per culture (total of 2000 mononucleated cells per dose).
CRITERIA FOR MICRONUCLEUS IDENTIFICATION: Analysis was performed under a microscope (1000 x magnification), on the basis of the recommendations of Miller et al. (1995) (e), according to the following criteria:
-micronuclei should be clearly surrounded by a nuclear membrane,
- the micronucleus area should be less than one-third of the area of the main nucleus,
- non-refractility of the micronuclei,
- micronuclei should not be linked to the main nucleus via nucleoplasmic bridges,
- micronuclei should be located within the cytoplasma of the cell,
- only mononucleated cells with a number of micronuclei, 5 should be scored to exclude apoptosis and nuclear fragmentation.
Number of cells with micronuclei and number of micronuclei per cell were given separately for each treated and control culture.
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Population Doubling
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity: For each culture, the Population Doubling (PD) was calculated and used relative to that of the vehicle control. The population doubling is the log of the ratio of the final count at the time of harvesting (N) to the starting count (N0), divided by the log of 2.
PD = [log (N/N0)]/log 2.
Mean PD (%) = (Mean PD treated / Mean PD vehicle control) x 100
The cytotoxicity induced by a treatment was evaluated by the decrease in the PD, when compared to the vehicle control (Mean % PD of the vehicle control set to 100%).
Decrease in PD (%) = 100 - Mean PD as % of control
OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
- Determination of polyploidy: notspecified
- Determination of endoreplication: not specified
- Methods, such as kinetochore antibody binding, to characterize whether micronuclei contain whole or fragmented chromosomes (if applicable): not specified - Evaluation criteria:
- Acceptance criteria
Each main experiment was considered valid if the following criteria were met:
-the mean PD of the vehicle control had to be ≥ 1 (indicating that cells have undergone mitosis),
- the mean frequency of micronucleated cells in the vehicle control should be consistent with (but not necessary within) control historical data of the Laboratory. In any case, this frequency should be ≤ 5‰,
-a statistically significant increase in the frequency of micronucleated cells had to be obtained in the positive controls over the background frequency of the vehicle control cultures. - Statistics:
- For each condition of the cytogenetic experiment, the frequency of micronucleated cells in treated cultures was compared to that of the vehicle control cultures.
This comparison was performed using the 2 test, unless treated culture data are lower than or equal to the vehicle control data. P = 0.05 was used as the lowest level of significance. This statistical analysis was performed using a validated Excel sheet.
To assess the dose-response trend, a linear regression was performed between the frequencies of micronucleated cells and the dose levels. This statistical analysis was performed using SAS Enterprise Guide software. - Key result

At the highest tested dose level of 500 µg/mL, the pH of the culture medium was approximately 7.4 and the osmolality was 291 mOsm/kg H2O (both as the vehicle control). Therefore, none of the selected dose levels was considered to produce extreme culture conditions and the dose level of 500 µg/mL could be selected as the highest dose level for the main experiment.
At the end of both 3- and 24-hour treatment periods, a precipitate was observed in the culture medium at dose levels higher than or equal to 100 µg/mL.
No noteworthy cytotoxicity was observed at any dose levels, in any conditions, as shown by the absence of notable decrease in the PD relative to the corresponding vehicle control.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used:Population Doubling - Conclusions:
- Under the experimental conditions of the study, the test item, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, did not induce any chromosome damage, or damage to the cell division apparatus, in cultured mammalian somatic cells, using L5178Y TK+/- mouse lymphoma cells, either in the presence or absence of a rat liver metabolizing system.
- Executive summary:
The objective of this GLP-compliant study was to evaluate the potential of the test item, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, to induce an increase in the frequency of micronucleated cells in the mouse cell line L5178Y TK+/- according to OECD TG 487 method.
After a preliminary cytotoxicity test, the potential of the test item Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, suspended in water for injections, to induce an increase in the frequency of micronucleated cells was evaluated in a main cytogenetic experiment, with and without a metabolic activation system, the S9 mix, prepared from a liver microsomal fraction (S9 fraction) of rats induced with Aroclor 1254 as follows:
-without S9 mix, 3 hours treatment and 24 hours recovery
- without S9 mix, 24 hours treatment, no recovery
-with S9 mix, 3 hours treatment, 24 hours recovery
Each treatment was coupled to an assessment of cytotoxicity at the same dose levels. Cytotoxicity was evaluated by determining the PD (Population Doubling) of cells.
After the final cell counting, the cells were washed and fixed. Then, cells from three dose levels of the test item-treated cultures were dropped onto clean glass slides. The slides were air-dried before being stained in 5% Giemsa. Slides from vehicle and positive controls cultures were also prepared. For each main experiment (with or without S9 mix), micronuclei were analyzed for three dose levels of the test item, for the vehicle and the positive controls, in 1000 mononucleated cells per culture (total of 2000 mononucleated cells per dose). Number of cells with micronuclei and number of micronuclei per cell were recorded separately for each treated and control culture.
Since the test item was found poorly soluble in the culture medium and non-cytotoxic in the preliminary test, the selection of the highest dose level for the main experiment was based on the presence of precipitate, according to the criteria specified in the international regulations.The mean population doubling and the mean frequencies of micronucleated cells for the vehicle controls were as specified in the acceptance criteria. Also, positive control cultures showed clear statistically significant increases in the frequency of micronucleated cells.
With a treatment volume of 5 % (v/v) in culture medium, the dose levels selected for the treatment were: 7.81, 15.6, 31.3, 62.5, 125 and 250 µg/mL for the 3-hour treatments with and without S9 mix, as well as for the 24-hour treatment without S9 mix. At the end of both 3- and 24-hour treatment periods, a precipitate was observed in the culture medium at dose levels >= 125 µg/mL. No noteworthy cytotoxicity was induced at any dose levels, either following the 3-hour treatments with and without S9 mix or the 24-hour treatment without S9 mix, as shown by the absence of notable decrease in the PD relative to the corresponding vehicle control.
For the three experimental conditions, the dose levels selected for the micronucleus analysis were: 31.3, 62.5 and 125 µg/mL, the latter being the lowest dose level showing precipitate in the culture medium at the end of the treatment periods. Following the 3-hour treatments with and without S9 mix or the 24-hour treatment without S9 mix, neither statistically significant nor dose-related increase in the frequency of micronucleated cells was noted at any of the analyzed dose levels relative to the corresponding vehicle control.
Under the experimental conditions of the study, the test item, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, did not induce any chromosome damage, or damage to the cell division apparatus, in cultured mammalian somatic cells, using L5178Y TK+/- mouse lymphoma cells, either in the presence or absence of a rat liver metabolizing system.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used: inhibition of background lawn of auxotrophic cells: No cytotoxicity was observed. - Conclusions:
- Under the experimental condition of the study, the registered substance saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate did not induced reverse mutation when incubated with bacteria strain. Hence, the registered substance was considered to be not mutagenic for bacteria strain according to CLP criteria.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this GLP compliant study was to evaluate the mutagenic potential of the test item by measuring its ability to induce reverse mutations at selected loci of several strains of Salmonella typhimurium and at the tryptophan locus of Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA strain in the presence and absence of activated rat liver S9 fraction (performed according to OECD TG 471 method).
The test item was tested for potential mutagenic activity using the Bacterial Reverse Mutation Assay.
The experiments were carried out using histidine-requiring auxotroph strains of Salmonella typhimurium (Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537) and the tryptophan-requiring auxotroph strain of Escherichia coli (Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA) in the presence and absence of a post mitochondrial supernatant (S9 fraction) prepared from the livers of phenobarbital/-naphthoflavone- induced rats.
The study included a Preliminary Compatibility Test, a Preliminary Range Finding Test (Informatory Toxicity Test), an Initial Mutation Test (Plate Incorporation Method) and a Confirmatory Mutation Test (Pre-Incubation Method).
Based on the results of the Compatibility Test, the test item was dissolved in Distilled water at a concentration of 50 mg/mL. Concentrations of 5000; 2500; 1000; 316; 100; 31.6 and 10 µg/plate were examined in the Range Finding Test in tester strains Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 in the absence and presence of metabolic activation. Based on the results of the Range Finding Test, the test item concentrations in the Initial Mutation Test were 5000, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50 and 15.81 μg/plate, in the Confirmatory Mutation Test were 5000, 1581, 500, 158.1, 50,
15.81 and 5 μg/plate.
Precipitate/slight precipitate was detected on the plates in the Preliminary experiment at Salmonella typhimurium TA98 strain and in the Confirmatory Mutation Test in all examined strains with and without metabolic activation at higher concentrations.
Inhibitory, cytotoxic effect of the test item was not detected in the Initial Mutation Test and Confirmatory Mutation Test.
In the Initial Mutation Test and Confirmatory Mutation Test, the number of revertant colonies did not show any biologically relevant increase compared to the solvent controls. There were no consistent dose-related trends and no indication of any treatment-related effect.
The mean values of revertant colonies of the negative (vehicle/solvent) control plates were within the historical control range, the reference mutagens showed the expected increase in the number of revertant colonies, the viability of the bacterial cells was checked by a plating experiment in each test. At least five analyzable concentrations were presented in all strains of the main tests, the examined concentration range was considered to be adequate. The study was considered to be valid.
In conclusion, the test item Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate has no mutagenic activity on the growth of the bacterial strains under the test conditions used in this study.

- Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
- Preliminary cytotoxicity test : Based on available solubility data, the highest selected dose level was 500 µg/mL since it was expected to produce precipitation in the culture medium. This dose level was obtained using a test item concentration of 10 mg/mL and a treatment volume of 5% (v/v) in the culture medium (i.e. 1000 µL/20 mL culture medium for the 3-hour treatments and 2500 µL/50 mL culture medium for the 24 hour treatment).
The selected dose levels were 2.06, 6.17, 18.5, 55.6, 166.7 and 500 µg/mL.
Main experiments : Since the test item was found non-cytotoxic but poorly soluble in the culture medium, the highest dose level selection for the main experiment was based on the level of precipitate, according to the criteria specified in the international guidelines.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: relative total growth
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity:
For the evaluation of cytotoxicity, the following parameters were determined: Daily cell growth on Day 1 (or 2)= cell concentration on Day 1 (or 2)/ adjusted concentration on Day 0 (or 1) 2 x 10E5
Cell growth during the 24-hour treatment = post-treatment cell concentration / seeded cell concentration (i.e. = 2 x 10E5 cells/mL)
Suspension growth (SG) for 3-hour treatment = daily growth on Day 1 x daily growth on Day 2
Suspension growth (SG) for 24-hour treatment =cell growth during the 24-hour treatment x daily growth on Day 1 x daily growth on Day 2
RSG (relative SG) = SG treated / SG vehicle control x 100
Adjusted RSG= cell count factor x [(SG treated / SG vehicle control) x 100]
Cell count factor = treated post-treatment cell count/ vehicle control post-treatment cell count
Adjusted relative total growth = Adj. RSG x RCE2 / 100
RCE2 = cloning efficiency treated / cloning efficiency vehicle control x 100
The relative Mutant Frequency (MF) and the induced mutation frequency (IMF) were calculated as follows:
MF = CEmutant x 10E6 / CE2
IMF = MF treated – MF vehicle control
OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
- the clones were counted using a magnifying glass, differentiating small and large colonies:
-size of small colonies: < 25% of the diameter of the well,
-size of large colonies: > 25% of the diameter of the well. - Evaluation criteria:
- IWGT recommendations were followed for the determination of a positive result, which should fulfill the following criteria:
- at least at one dose level the mutation frequency minus the mutation frequency of the vehicle control (IMF) equals or exceeds the global evaluation factor (GEF) of 126 x 10-6,
- a dose-response relationship is demonstrated by a statistically significant trend test.
Unless an effect is considered as clearly positive, the reproducibility of a positive effect should be confirmed.
Noteworthy increases in the mutation frequency observed only at high levels of cytotoxicity (Adj. RTG lower than 10%), but with no evidence of mutagenicity at dose levels with Adj. RTG between 10 and 20%, are not considered as positive results.
A test item may be considered as non-mutagenic when there is no culture showing an Adj. RTG value between 10 and 20% if (g):
- there is at least one negative data point between 20 and 25% Adj. RTG and no evidence of mutagenicity in a series of data points between 100 and 20% Adj. RTG,
- there is no evidence of mutagenicity in a series of data points between 100 and 25% and there is also a negative data point between 10 and 1% Adj. RTG. - Statistics:
- To assess the dose-response relationship, a linear regression was performed between dose levels and individual mutation frequencies obtained at dose levels showing a mean Adj. RTG ≥ 10%

- Under the experimental conditions of this study, the test item, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, did notshow any mutagenic activity in the mouse lymphoma assay, either in the presence or absence of a rat liver metabolizing system.
- Executive summary:
The objective of this GLP compliant study was to evaluate the potential of the test item, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, to induce mutations at the TK (Thymidine Kinase) locus in L5178Y TK+/- mouse lymphoma cells according to OECD TG 490 method.
Material and methods
After a preliminary cytotoxicity test, the test item Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, suspended in water for injections, for was tested in a first mutagenicity experiment, using 3-hour treatments, with and without a metabolic activation system (S9 mix) prepared from a liver microsomal fraction (S9 fraction) of rats induced with Aroclor 1254. In a second mutagenicity experiment, the test item was tested at the test site using a 24-hour treatment without metabolic activation system. Cultures of 20 mL at 5 x 105 cells/mL (3-hour treatments) or cultures of 50 mL at 2 x 105 cells/mL (24-hour treatment) were exposed to the test or control items, in the presence or absence of S9 mix (final concentration of S9 fraction 2%). During the treatment period, the cells were maintained as suspension culture in RPMI 1640 culture medium supplemented by heat inactivated horse serum at 5% (3-hour treatment) or 10% (24-hour treatment) in a 37°C, 5% CO2 humidified incubator.
Cytotoxicity was measured by assessment of Adjusted Relative Total Growth (Adj. RTG), Adjusted Relative Suspension Growth (Adj. RSG) and cloning efficiency following the expression time (CE2). The number of mutant clones (differentiating small and large colonies) was evaluated after expression of the mutant phenotype.
Results
The cloning efficiencies, the mutation frequencies and the suspension growths of the vehicle controls were as specified in the acceptance criteria. For the positive control cultures, the increase in the mutation frequencies met the acceptance criteria. In addition, the upper limit of cytotoxicity observed in the positive control cultures had an Adj. RTG greater than 10%. The study was therefore considered to be valid. Since the test item was found non-cytotoxic but poorly soluble in the culture medium during the preliminary test, the highest dose level selection for the main experiment was based on the level of precipitate, according to the criteria specified in the international guidelines. The selected dose levels were 3.13, 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 μg/mL for each experiment with or without S9 mix.
A precipitate was noted in the culture medium at dose levels ≥ 50 μg/mL at the end of the 3-hour treatment period and at dose levels ≥ 6.25 μg/mL at the end of the 24-hour treatment period.
No cytotoxicity was observed at any dose levels in any test conditions, as shown by the absence of any noteworthy decrease in the Adj. RTG.
Following the 3-hour treatments with and without S9 mix or the 24-hour treatment without S9 mix, no increase in the mutation frequency exceeding the GEF was observed at any of the tested dose levels relative to the corresponding vehicle control. Moreover, no dose-response relationship was demonstrated by the linear regression in any test conditions. These results did not meet the criteria for a positive response.
Conclusion
Under the experimental conditions of this study, the test item, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lysate, did not show any mutagenic activity in the mouse lymphoma assay, either in the presence or absence of a rat liver metabolizing system.

Additional information
Three in vitro key studies were available for mutagenicity evaluation for the registered substance:
An Ames study was performed (Orovecz, Klimisch 1, 2018, GLP, OECD TG 471). Bacteria strain Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535 and TA1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA were treated with test substance in distilled water up to 5000 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation system. Three different test were performed as preliminary cytotoxicity test, initial mutation test (plate incorporation method) and confirmatory test (pre incubation method) and revertant colony number was counted. In these three different experiments, no cytotoxicity or mutagenicity were observed. Hence, the test substance was not considered as mutagenic for bacteria strain under the experimental conditions of the study.
An in vitro micronucleus assay was performed (Chevallier, Klimisch 1, 2018, GLP, OECD TG 487). Mammalian cell line L5178Y TK+/- was exposed to the test substance Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, lysate at concentrations up to 250 µg/mL, with and without metabolic activation system, during 3 or 24 hours period. After the treatment period, 2000 cells per dose were assessed for cytotoxicity (population doubling) and mutagenicity (micronucleus counted per cell). At the end of both 3- and 24-hour treatment periods, a precipitate was observed in the culture medium at dose levels >= 125 µg/mL. No cytotoxicity and no increase or micronucleated cells frequency were observed in the study. Hence, the test item did not induce any chromosome damage, or damage to the cell division apparatus for L5178Y TK +/- cells under the experimental conditions of the study.
An in vitro cytogenicity test was performed (Sire, Klimisch 1, 2018, GLP, OECD TG 480) on mammalian cellsz L5178 TK+/- cells. The cells were incubated with test substance at concentrations up to 1000 µg/mL with and without metabolic activation. Two incubation periods were used, 3- hours and 24- hours. Cytotoxicity was evaluated using Adjusted Relative Total Grown and Cloning Efficiency. The test item was found non-cytotoxic under the test conditions and no mutagenicity was observed under the experimental conditions of the study, after 3 hours of exposure.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the three in vitro key studies (Orovecz, Klimisch 1, GLP, 2018, OECD TG 471; Chevallier, Klimisch 1, GLP, 2018, OECD 487 ; Sire, Klimisch 1, GLP, 2018, OECD TG 490), the test substance Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, lysate did not induce mutagenicity and clastogenicity on mammalian cells or bacteria strain. Hence, according to CLP critera, the test substance Saccharomyces Cerevisiae, lysate was not considered as mutagenic substance in vitro. Further in vivo evaluation was not required according to REACh regulation.
