RESULTS

The test compound, BI0-76-109 FLECTOL H, Lot 5E866, was examined for mutagenic activity in a series of in vitro microbial assays employing Salmonella and Saccharomyces-indicator organisms. The compound was tested directly and in the presence of liver microsomal enzyme preparations from Aroclor-induced rats. The following results were obtained:

A. Toxicity

The compound was tested over a series of concentrations such that there was evidence of some chemically-induced physiological

effects at the high dose level. The low dose in all cases was below a concentration that demonstrated any toxic effect. The dose range employed for the evaluation of this compound was from 0.5 µg ~ 250 µg per plate.

B. Nonactivation Test Results

The results of the tests conducted on the compound in the absence of a metabolic system were all negative.

C. Activation Test Results

The results of the tests ·conducted on the compound in the presence of the rat liver activation system were all negative.
