Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative Negative with and without

No significant lethal effect on the tester strain was observed in the presence or absence of S9 mix at any of the dose levels tested. No of His revertants in TA 98-(Without S9 mix) is 24,and in TA100 is 80. With activation-Without norharman-40, With norharman-69 In the presence of norharman, however, test chemical and exhibited mutagenicity to S.typhimurium TA98 in the presence of S9 mix indicating that norharman was effective only for the frame-shift mutagen.
Executive summary:

Study was conducted to test the effects of the given test chemical on salmonella on two strains TA 98 an TA100 using DMSO as a vehicle. Study is carried out based on Ames test with some modifications. Preincubation is done at 37 deg celcius for 20min.

No significant lethal effect on the tester strain TA 98 and TA 100 was observed in the presence or absence of S9 mix at any of the dose levels tested.
