Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

The substance was negative in the Ames test (bacterial reverse mutation assay) employing Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100, and Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA, both in the presence and absence of a metabolic activation system (rat liver S9).

Executive summary:

In the in vitro genotoxicity study (Ames test) the substance was tested for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA100, and in Escherichia coli strain WP2 uvrA. Concentrations of up to 5000 μg/plate were tested in the presence and absence of a metabolic activation system derived from rat liver S9. No evidence of mutagenic activity was seen at any concentration of the substance. It was concluded that the substance showed no evidence of mutagenic activity in this bacterial system under the test conditions employed.
