Additional information on results:
The laboratory´s historical control range was slightly exceeded in the solvent control of strains TA 100 without S9 mix and WP2 uvrA with S9 mix in experiment I. This minor deviation is judged to be based on biologically irrelevant fluctuations in the number of colonies and has no impact on the outcome of the study.

Precipitation of the test item in the test tubes was observed at 2500 µg/plate and 5000 µg/plate in both experiments. Precipitation of the test item on the incubated agar plates was observed in both experiments at 5000 µg/plate in the absence of metabolic activation and from 333 µg/plate up to 5000 µg/plate in the presence of metabolic activation. The undissolved particles had no influence on the data recording.
