Test results
Species / strain:
other: Toxicity testing: S. typhimurium: TA100 Spot test: S. typhimurium: TA1535, TA1537, TA97, TA98 and TA100|Plate incorporation test: S. typhimurium: TA1535, TA1537, TA97, TA98 and TA100
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Genotoxicity:
negative
Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:
no cytotoxicity
Remarks:
With metabolic activation: no cytotoxicity at concentrations ≤ 10 mg of sample per plate.Without metabolic activation: no cytotoxicity at concentrations ≤ 10 mg of sample per plate.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Interpretation of results (migrated information):
negative

Cyanuric acid was not mutagenic towards Salmonella typhimurium test strains in plate incorporation or spot tests conducted with or without a rat microsomal activation system. No microbial toxicity was observed with or without microsomal activation.
