Details on test system and experimental conditions:
Description of follow up repeated study: Preliminary test had carried out to decide the appropriate starting dose level of the main study at the concentration of 1.6, 8, 40, 200, 1,000 and 3,000 μg/plate. Criteria for evaluating results: the number of revertant colonies in the plate was counted after 2 days incubation at 37 °C.

The direct incorporation method: For test without metabolic activation, the test substance and 0.1 ml of fresh bacterial culture were added to 2.0 ml of overlay agar. For tests with metabolic activation, 0.5 ml of metabolic activation mixture containing an adequate amount of postmitochondrial fraction was added to the overlay agar after the addition of the bacteria and test substance. All plates in a given test should be incubated for the same time period.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative With and without metabolic activation

Mutation in the Salmonella tryphimurium (strains TA 98, TA100, TA 1535 and TA 1537) and in the Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA did not occur with calcium sulfate, dihydrate
