Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
negative in bacterial reverse mutation assay
Executive summary:

The test material was tested for mutagenic effects in vitro in histidine-requiring strains of Salmonella typhimurium, according to an internal method similar to the OECD Guideline 471.

The test was performing without and with metabolic activation in the range of concentration of 0.1 to 100 µg/20µL/plate, using strains of Salmonella typhimurium TA 97, TA 98, TA 100, TA 102, TA 104, TA 1535, TA 1537 and TA 1538. Each concentration and control were tested in triplicate.

No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of any of the tester strains was observed following treatment with the test substance at any concentration level, neither in the presence nor absence of metabolic activation.

Based on the results of these experiments, it is concluded that the test material did not induce gene mutations in the strains of S. typhimurium used, both with and without metabolic activation.
