With S9 mix: 2.44, 4.88, 9.77, 19.5, 39.1 and 78.1 µg/plate.

Controls
- Negative solvent / vehicle controls:
- yes
- Positive controls:
- yes

- other: 2-(2-furyl)-3-(5-nitro-2-furyl)acrylamide, sodium azide, 9-aminoacridine hydrochloride monohydrate and 2-aminoanthracene.
- Remarks:
- Varying positive control substances depending on the strain/metabolic activation used.
- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: Preincubation method (standard as per OECD guidance)
DURATION
- Preincubation period: 20 minutes at 37°C
- Exposure duration: 48 hours at 37°C
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: In the main test 3 plates/dose were used (triplicate). In the preliminary test 1 plate per dose was used (2 for controls).
MEASUREMENT OF COLONY NUMBER: Revertant colonies were measured using an automatic colony counter or manual counting.
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Background lawn of the bacterial cells that have amino-acid requirements were observed by stereoscopic microscope and microbial inhibition (cytotoxicity) was judged by the relationship between the test substance treated plates and the solvent control plates. - Rationale for test conditions:
- Pre-incubation method standard as per OECD guidance. Main experiment was repeated to confirm the positive result.
- Evaluation criteria:
- The substance was judged to be positive when it induced a dose dependant increase in the number of revertant colonies (mean) to a level equal to or greater than 2 fold of the solvent control value (mean) in any one of the tester strains with or without S9 mix, and when a dose dependant increase was reproducible. Other results were judged to be negative.
- Statistics:
- No statistical analysis was performed with the results in the study.

- Additional information on results:
- Preliminary test:
Cytotoxicity without S9 mix: 4.88 µg/plate or greater (all strains).
Cytotoxicity with S9 mix: 78.1 µg/plate or greater (all strains).
Main test 1:
Cytotoxicity without S9 mix: 2.44 µg/plate (all strains)
Cytotoxicity with S9 mix: 39.1 µg/plate or greater (TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537). 78.1 µg/plate (WP2urvA).
Precipitation: precipitation of the test substance was not observed in all tested strains both with and without S9 mix.
Main test 2:
Cytotoxicity without S9 mix: 2.44 µg/plate (all strains)
Cytotoxicity with S9 mix: 39.1 µg/plate or greater (TA100, TA1535, TA98, TA1537). 78.1 µg/plate (WP2urvA).
Precipitation: precipitation of the test substance was not observed in all tested strains both with and without S9 mix.
Sterility Test: Bacteria or fungus contamination was not observed in plates of the highest dose of the test substance solution, S9 mix or the 0.1 mol/L sodium phosphate buffer in the preliminary test and two main tests.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the substance was deemed to be potentially mutagenic as greater than a 2-fold number of revertant colonies was induced by the test substance compared with controls when considering the strain TA1537 with metabolic activation. This result was found in two experiments and the acceptability of the study was observed.
