Method

Species / strain
Species / strain / cell type:
lymphocytes: human
Details on mammalian cell type (if applicable):
For each experiment, sufficient whole blood was drawn from the peripheral circulation of a volunteer who had been previuosly screened for suitabilityThe volunteer had not been exposed to high levels of radiation or hazardous chemicals and had not knowingly recently suffered from a viral infection. The cell-cycle time for the lymphocytes from the donors used in this study was determined using BrdU (bromodeoxyuridine) incorporation to assess the number of first, second and third division metaphase cells and so circulate the average generation time (AGT). The avarage AGT fot regular donors used in this laboratory has been determined to be approx. 16 hr under typical experimental exposure conditions.

Genotoxicity:
negative
Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:

Vehicle controls validity:
valid
Positive controls validity:
valid
Additional information on results:
All vehicle control groups had frequencies of cells with aberrations within the range expected for normal human lympocytes.
All the positive control items induced statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with aberrations indicating that the sensitivity of the aassay and the efficacy of the S9 mix were validated.
The test item was moderately non toxic and did not induce any statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with aberrations, in either of two separate experiments, using a dose range that included a dose level included at lease one precipitating dose level

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative non clastogenic

The test item was moderately non toxic and did not induce any statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with aberrations, in either of two separate experiments, using a dose range that included a dose level included at lease one precipitating dose level. Therefore the test item F-3014 was considered to be non-clastogenic to human lymphocytes in vitro.
Executive summary:

In vitro study which describes the detection of structural chromosomal aberrations in cultured mammalian cells using OECD 473 and method B10 of the commission regulation.

Duplicate cultures of human lymphocytes, treated with the test item, were evaluated for chromosome aberrations at four dose levels, together with vehicle and positive controls. four treatment conditions were used for the study. With and with out S-9 Mix (2%) (4 hr presence, 20 hr expression period), 4 hr with S-9 mix (1%), 20 hr expression period and exposure time for 24 hr without S-9 mix.

All vehicle control groups had frequencies of cells with aberrations within the range expected for normal human lympocytes.

All the positive control items induced statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with aberrations indicating that the sensitivity of the aassay and the efficacy of the S9 mix were validated.

The test item was moderately non toxic and did not induce any statistically significant increases in the frequency of cells with aberrations, in either of two separate experiments, using a dose range that included a dose level included at lease one precipitating dose level.

The test item F-3014 was considered to be non-clastogenic to human lymphocytes in vitro.
