METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation, standard plate test) or preincubation in suspension;
DURATION
- Preincubation period: 20min (pre-incubation assay)
- Exposure duration: 48 - 72h

SELECTION AGENT (mutation assays): trp or his depleted agar

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: 3

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: decrease in the number of revertants, reduced background growth, reduced titer
Evaluation criteria:
Acceptance criteria
• The number of revertant colonies in the negative controls is within the range of the historical negative control data for each tester strain.
• The sterility controls revealed no indication of bacterial contamination.
• The positive control substances both with and without S9 mix induced a distinct increase in the number of revertant colonies within the range of the historical positive control data or above.
• Fresh bacterial culture containing approximately 10^9 cells per mL were used. For approval the titer of viable bacteria was ≥ 10^8 colonies per mL.

Assessment criteria
The test substance is considered positive in this assay if a dose-related and reproducible increase in the number of revertant colonies is observed, 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 are within the historical negative control
range under all experimental conditions in at least two experiments carried out independently of each other.
