OTHER EXAMINATION
- Precipitation of the test substance
- Evaluation criteria:
- A test substance is considered negative (not mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in the tester strain TA100, TA97 and TA102 is not greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, and the total number of revertants in tester strains TA1535, and TA98 is not greater than three (3) times the concurrent control.
b) The negative response should be reproducible in at least one independently repeated experiment.
A test substance is considered positive (mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in tester strain TA100, TA97 and TA102 is greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, or the total number of revertants in tester strains TA1535 and, TA98 is greater than three (3) times the concurrent control.
b) In case a positive response will be repeated, the positive response should be reproducible in at least one independently repeated experiment. - Statistics:
