Examinations
- Tissues and cell types examined:
- Both femurs of each mouse were dissected out following termination by carbon dioxide gassing and cervical dislocation.
Marrow cells were flushed into clean centrifuge tubes with 2.5 ml foetal calf serum, the suspension was centrifuged (1000 RPM, 5 minutes) and the bulk of supernatant removed.
Three smear slides were prepared from the cells of each animal and stained manually using the Schmid staining technique.
Slides were evalulated blind to eliminate bias, approximately, 2000 mature and polychromatic erythrocytes were scored for each animal, at least 1000 of each cell type will be scored for the presence of micronuclei. - Details of tissue and slide preparation:

Slides were evalulated blind to eliminate bias, approximately, 2000 mature and polychromatic erythrocytes were scored for each animal, at least 1000 of each cell type will be scored for the presence of micronuclei. - Evaluation criteria:
- A total of ~2000 mature and polychromatic erythrocytes per animal were scored for the presence or abcence of micronuclei, the study aimed to score 1000 each of polychromatic and mature erythrocytes where possible, only deviating where there was a significant shift in the ratio of polychromatic to mature cells.
The counts for mature erythrocytes provide a check on the results of the younger cells, the ratio of mature cells to polychromatic cells was calculated for each animal as an indicator of gross toxicity. - Statistics:
- Comparisons of the number of micronuclei scored in polychromatic cells between the control amd treatment groups were made using the Mann-Whitney U test.
Results and discussion
Test results
- Key result
- Sex:
- male/female
- Genotoxicity:
- negative
- Toxicity:
- no effects
- Remarks:
- No Treated animals showed any adverse reactions to treatment, all animals survived to termination.
- Vehicle controls validity:
- valid
- Negative controls validity:
- not applicable
- Positive controls validity:
- valid
- Additional information on results:
- Frequencies of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in treated animals at 24,48 and 72 hours post exposure were similar to those in concurrent controls, there were no significant differences observed between sexes in any group.
Statistical analysis indicated that there was a significant increase in the frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes at a dosage of 1000mg/kg and 72hrs post exposure. This was caused by an unusually low occurance of micronuclei in the concurrent control animals (9/10 mice showed no micronuclei), no sucralose treated animals gave values in excess of 3.2 micronuclei per 1000 cells scored, therefore this apparent increase is not considered to to be of biological significance.
Statistically and biologically significant increases in the number of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes over control values were seen in positive control group animals given chlorambucil at 30mg/kg, demonstrating the sensitivity of the system.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The genetic toxicity of the test item on mammalian cells was determined in a study according to the OECD guideline 474. It is concluded that, under the conditions of the test, there was no biologically significant evidence of treatment induced damage to chromosomes or other damage leading to micronucleus formation in polychromatic erythrocytes of treated mice after 24, 48, or 72 hours of exposure to sucralose.
