DURATION
- Preincubation period: ovenight at 37 ± 3 ˚C
- Exposure duration: 48 - 72 h at 37 ± 3 ˚C
- Expression time (cells in growth medium): not applicable
- Selection time (if incubation with a selection agent): not applicable
- Fixation time (start of exposure up to fixation or harvest of cells): not applicable

SELECTION AGENT (mutation assays): histidine

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Triplicate

NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: not applicable
Evaluation criteria:
For the test article to be considered positive, it must cause at least a doubling in the mean number of revertants per plate of at least one strain. This increase in the mean umber of revertants per plate must be accompanied by a dose response to increasing concentrations of the test article. For TA1537 or TA1538 revertants less than three-fold, the response must be reproducible.
Statistics:
For each triplicate plating, an average and standard deviation were calculated.
