Method

Species / strain
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and E. coli WP2
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
liver S9 mix from induced rats
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
1st Experiment: 0; 33; 100; 333; 1 000; 2 600 and 5 200 μg/plate
due to the purity of the test substance 5.2 mg/plate was used as top dose in the first experiment (standard plate test)

2nd Experiment (preincubation test): 0; 10; 33; 100; 333; 1 000 and 2 600 μg/plate
A 2nd experiment was performed because no mutagenicity was observed in the standard plate test.
Vehicle / solvent:
DMSO; The substance was not soluble in ultrapure water.

- Exposure duration: 48 – 72 hours

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS:
3 test plates per dose or per control

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
Toxicity detected by a
• decrease in the number of revertants
• clearing or diminution of the background lawn (= reduced his- or trp- background growth)
• reduction in the titer
was recorded for all test groups both with and without S9 mix in all experiments


- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity:

Precipitation of the test material was recorded. As long as precipitation did not interfere with the colony scoring, 5 mg/plate was generally selected and
analyzed (in cases of nontoxic compounds) as the maximum dose at least in the 1st Experiment even in the case of relatively insoluble test compounds to detect possible mutagenic impurities.
Evaluation criteria:
The test substance is considered positive in this assay if the following criteria are met:
• A dose-related and reproducible increase in the number of revertant colonies, i.e. about doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate in at least one tester strain either without S9 mix or after adding a metabolizing system.
A test substance is generally considered non-mutagenic in this test if:
• The number of revertants for all tester strains were within the historical negative control range under all experimental conditions in at least two experiments carried out independently of each other.
