Details on test system and experimental conditions:

METHOD OF APPLICATION: suspended in medium
DURATION: 4 h (short-term exposure), 20 h (long-term exposure)
Expression time (cells in growth medium): 48-72 h
Selection time (if incubation with selection agent): about one week

SELECTION AGENT ( mutation assay) 11 µg/mL 6-thioguanine (TG)
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: two separate experiments (I+II) with single exposure; 5 individual flasks were seeded and evaluated
NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: 400000 cells per flask
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY: Method: relative growth; cloning efficiency

Evaluation criteria:

A test is considered to be negative if there is no biologically relevant increase in the number of mutants.
There are several criteria for determining a positive result:
-a reproducible three times higher mutation frequency than the solvent control for at least one of the concentrations;
-a concentration related increase of the mutation frequency; such an evaluation may be considered also in the case that a three-fold increase of
the mutant frequency is not observed;
-if there is by chance a low spontaneous mutation rate in the corresponding negative and solvent controls a concentration related increase of the mutations within their range has to be discussed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

In conclusion, in the described in vitro cell gene mutagenicity test under the experimental conditions reported, the test item Afilan V5756 is considered to be non-mutagenic in the HPRT locus using V79 cells of the Chinese Hamster.

Executive summary:

In a mammalian cell gene mutation assay (HPRT locus],V79 cells culturedin vitro were exposed to Afilan V5756 suspended in cell culture medium (MEM + 0% FBS 4h treatment; MEM + 10% FBS 20h treatment) at concentrations of

- 50, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250, 1500 and 2000 µg/mL (without metabolic activation, Experiment I)

- 50, 100, 250, 500, 750, 1000, 1250 and 1500 µg/mL (with metabolic activation, Experiment I)

- 7.5, 10, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150 and 175 µg/mL (without metabolic activation, Experiment II)

- 150, 200, 300, 600, 800, 1000, 1200 and 1400 µg/mL (with metabolic activation, Experiment II).

Afilan V5756 was tested up to cytotoxic concentrations.

Biologically relevant growth inhibition was observed in experiment I and II with and without metabolic activation.

In experiment I without metabolic activation the relative growth was 24.6% for the highest concentration evaluated (2000 µg/mL). The highest biologically relevant concentration evaluated with metabolic activation was 1500 µg/mL with a relative growth of 23.9%. In experiment II without metabolic activation the relative growth was 15.7% for the highest concentration (175 µg/mL) evaluated. The highest concentration evaluated with metabolic activation was 1400 µg/mL with a relative growth of 20.0%.

In experiment I without metabolic activation the highest mutation rate (compared to the negative control values) of 1.00 was found at a concentration of 500 µg/mL with a relative growth of 96.5%.

In experiment I with metabolic activation the highest mutation rate (compared to the negative control values) of 1.75 was found at a concentration of 1500 µg/mL with a relative growth of 23.9%.
In experiment II without metabolic activation the highest mutation rate (compared to the negative control values) of 2.43 was found at a concentration of 175 µg/mL with a relative growth of 15.7%.
In experiment II with metabolic activation the highest mutation rate (compared to the negative control values) of 1.21 was found at a concentration of 150 µg/mL with a relative growth of 101.3%.

The positive controls did induce the appropriate response. 

There was no evidence(or)evidence of a concentration related positive responseof induced mutant colonies over background.

This study is classified as acceptable.  This study satisfies the requirement for Test Guideline OPPTS 870.5300, OECD 476 forin vitromutagenicity (mammalian forward gene mutation) data.
