- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- The in vitro mutagenicity tests were performed with 1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole-4,5-diamine dihydrocloride, i.e. the dihydrochloride instead of the hemisulfate salt. The toxic potential of both salts of 1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole-4,5-diamine is attributable to the free base component. Therefore, the results of the in-vitro mutagenicity studies carried out with 1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole-4,5-diamine dihydrochloride were taken into consideration for the risk assessment of 1-hexyl 4,5-diamine pyrazole sulfate

- Details on test system and experimental conditions:
- METHOD OF APPLICATION: Direct plate incorporation (Experiment I) and pre-incubation method (Experiment II)MAINTENENCE OF TESTER STRAIN: Tester bacterial strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 were obtained from Trinova Biochem GmbH (35394 Gieβen, Germany). The strains were precultured and stored as follows:- Storage: The strain cultures were stored as stock cultures in ampoules with nutrient broth + 5 % DMSO in liquid nitrogen. - Periodic checking: Regular checking of the properties of the strains regarding the membrane permeability, ampicillin and tetracycline-resistance as well as spontaneous mutation rates was performed in the laboratory of Harlan CCR according to B. Ames et al. and D. Maron and B. Ames to ensure the experimental conditions set down by Ames.- Precultures: From the thawed ampoules of the strains 0.5 mL bacterial suspension was transferred into 250 mL Erlenmeyer flasks containing 20 mL nutrient medium. A solution of 20 µL mL ampicillin (25 µg/mL) was added to the strains TA 98, TA 100, and TA 102. This nutrient medium contains per litre: 8 g Merck Nutrient Broth (MERCK, D-64293)5 g NaCI (MERCK, D-64293). The bacterial cultures were incubated in a shaking water bath for 4 h at 37˚C.EXPERIMENTAL DURATION AND PROCEDURE: For each strain and dose level, including the controls three plates were used.- Plate incorporation method (Experiment I): 100 µL test solution/negative control/positive control, 500 µL S9 mix (for test with metabolic activation)/S9 mix substitution buffer (for test without metabolic activation), 100 µL bacterial suspension and 2000 µL of overlay agar was mixed in a test tube and poured onto the selective agar plates. - Preincubation assay (Experiment II): In the pre-incubation assay, 100 µL test solution/negative control/positive control, 500 µL S9 mix (for test with metabolic activation)/S9 mix substitution buffer (for test without metabolic activation) and 100 µL bacterial suspension were mixed in a test tube and incubated at 37˚C for 1 h.After pre-incubation 2mL overlay agar (45˚C) was added to each tube. The mixture was poured on minimal agar plates. The plates were incubated upside down for at least 48 h at 37˚C in the dark after solidification.SELECTION MEDIUM:Selective agar: Selective agar was obtained from Merck, D-64293 DarmstadtOverlay Agar: The overlay agar (Merck, D-64293 Darmstadt) contains/L: 6 g MERCK Agar Agar 6 g NaCl 10.5 mg L-Histidine × HCl ×H2O 12.2 mg Biotin Sterilizations were performed at 121˚C in an autoclave.NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: TriplicateDETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY - Pre-experiment: Toxicity of test material was tested in triplicates/strain/dose group with all strains used. Eight concentrations were evaluated for toxicity. The experimental conditions of pre-experiment were the same as described for the Experiment I above (plate incorporation test). - Method for evaluation: Reduction in the number of spontaneous revertants or clearing of bacterial background lawn.
- Evaluation criteria:
- - A test substance is considered as a mutagen if a biologically relevant increase in the number of revertants exceeding the threshold of twice (strains TA 98, TA 100, and TA 102) or thrice (strains TA 1535 and TA 1537) the colony count of the corresponding solvent control is observed.- A dose dependent increase is considered biologically relevant if the threshold is exceeded at more than one concentration.- An increase exceeding the threshold at only one concentration is judged as biologically relevant if reproduced in an independent second experiment.- A dose dependent increase in the number of revertant colonies below the threshold is regarded as an indication of a mutagenic potential if reproduced in an independent second experiment. However, whenever the colony counts remain within the historical range of negative and solvent controls such an increase is not considered biologically relevant.
- Statistics:
- According to the OECD guideline 471, a statistical analysis of the data is not mandatory.

RESULTS OF PRE-EXPERIMENT/EXPERIMENT I AND II:
i) Results of background growth:The plates incubated with the test substance showed normal background in all strains used in the presence of metabolic activation. Reduced background growth was observed in all strains at higher concentrations in the absence of metabolic activation. For details refer to ‘Table 1’ under ‘Any other information on results incl. tables’ section.
ii) Results of toxicity study:Toxicity of the test substance can be evident as a reduction in the number of spontaneous revertants or a clearing of the bacterial background lawn. In this study, evaluable plates (> 0) with colonies were observed in all strains used at five concentrations or more. Based on these results, pre-experiment was reported as main Experiment I and eight concentrations were tested in Experiment II and 5000 µg/plate was chosen as maximal concentration.Toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants (below the indication factor of 0.5) occurred in all strains at higher concentrations in the absence of metabolic activation. No toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants (below the indication factor of 0.5), occurred in the test groups with metabolic activation. For details refer to ‘Table 2’ under ‘Any other information on results incl. tables’ section.
iii) Genotoxicity Results: No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with test substance at any dose level, neither in the presence nor absence of metabolic activation (S9 mix). There was also no tendency of higher mutation rates with increasing concentrations in the range below the generally acknowledged border of biological relevance.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results (migrated information):negative with and without metabolic activation4,5-diamino-1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole, dihydrochloride (Pyrazole HECL/Hexylpyrazole) was considered non-mutagenic in Samonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay, in the presence and absence of metabolic activation. The in vitro mutagenicity tests was performed with 1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole-4,5-diamine dihydrocloride, i.e. the dihydrochloride instead of the hemisulfate salt. The toxic potential of both salts of 1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole-4,5-diamine is attributable to the free base component. Therefore, the results of the in-vitro mutagenicity studies carried out with 1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole-4,5-diamine dihydrochloride were taken into consideration for the risk assessment of 1-hexyl 4,5-diamine pyrazole sulfate
- Executive summary:
The bacterial reverse mutation test of 4,5-diamino-1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole, dihydrochloride (Pyrazole HECL/Hexylpyrazole) was determined following OECD guideline 471 (Bacterial Reverse Mutation Test) and EU Method B.13/14 (Mutagenecity - Reverse Mutation Test Using Bacteria).
A plate incorporation (Experiment I) and pre-incubation assay (Experiment II) using the Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98, TA 100 and TA 102 was performed with and without liver microsomal activation in a selective agar media. Each concentration, including the negative, positive and solvent controls was tested in triplicate. The test material was tested at the following concentrations:
Pre-Experiment/Experiment I and II: 3, 10, 33, 100, 333, 1000, 2500 and 5000 µg/plate
In this study, the pre-experiment was considered as main Experiment I because evaluable plates (> 0) with colonies were observed in all strains used at five concentrations or more.
The plates incubated with the test substance showed normal background in all strains used in the presence of metabolic activation. Reduced background growth was observed in all strains at higher concentrations in the absence of metabolic activation.
Toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants (below the indication factor of 0.5) occurred in all strains at higher concentrations in the absence of metabolic activation. No toxic effects, evident as a reduction in the number of revertants (below the indication factor of 0.5), occurred in the test groups with metabolic activation.
No substantial increase in revertant colony numbers of the five tester strains was observed following treatment with test substance at any dose level in the presence or absence of metabolic activation (S9 mix). There was also no tendency of higher mutation rates with increasing concentrations in the range below the generally acknowledged border of biological relevance.
Negative control, solvent control and positive control data in this study were comparable with the historical control data.
4,5-diamino-1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole, dihydrochloride did not induce gene mutations by base pair changes or frameshifts in the genome of the strains used.
Based on the above, 4,5-diamino-1-hexyl-1H-pyrazole, dihydrochloride (Pyrazole HECL/Hexylpyrazole) was considered non-mutagenic in this Samonella typhimurium reverse mutation assay in the presence or absence of metabolic activation.
This bacterial reverse mutation test is classified as acceptable, and satisfies the guideline requirements of the OECD 471 method.
