Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Under these experimental conditions, the test item LAB3822 (Batch FAL 07/25) induced no mutagenic activity in any of the five Salmonella typhimurium tested in presence as well as in absence of metabolic activation.
The determination of LAB3822 in treatment solutions was performed using a validated analytical method. The dosing results are thus considered as reliable. The results obtained for the concentration assay of LAB3822 in treatment solutions used in the Ames test FSP-IPL 070707, were within the range 80-120% of the theoretical values, except for 4 samples, with 67.6 to 123.5% of recovery between theoretical and nominal values. Nevertheless, this was considered only as a slight deviation and did not affect either the integrity or the validity of the current study. It is noteworthy that the blanks were below the limit of quantification, as expected. Finally, LAB3822 is considered as stable in DMSO solutions for 8 months, when stored at –80°C.

T = Toxicity (- non toxic; + slightly toxic; ++ moderately toxic; +++ strongly toxic; N no bacterial growth)

P = Precipitate (- absence; + slight precipitate; ++ moderate precipitate; +++ important precipitate hindering scoring)

The test item LAB3822 induced no toxicity either with or without metabolic activation, whatever the dose tested. However, the highest concentration of 5000 μg/plate induced a decrease in the number of reverstants in strain TA 102, in presence and in absence of metabolic activation, and in strain TA 1535 in absence of metabolic activation.

The maximum dose retained for the first mutagenicity assay was 5000 μg/plate with and without metabolic activation in all strains tested, except in strain TA1535, without metabolic activation, and strain TA102, with and without metabolic activation, where the top dose retained was of 3000 μg/plate.

CONCLUSION

Under these experimental conditions, the test item LAB3822 (Batch FAL 07/25) provided by ROQUETTE induced no mutagenic activity in any of the five Salmonella typhimurium tested in presence as well as in absence of metabolic activation.

The determination of LAB3822 in treatment solutions was performed using a validated analytical method. The dosing results are thus considered as reliable. The results obtained for the concentration assay of LAB3822 in treatment solutions used in the Ames test FSP-IPL 070707, were within the range 80-120% of the theoretical values, except for 4 samples, with 67.6 to 123.5% of recovery between theoretical and nominal values. Nevertheless, this was considered only as a slight deviation and did not affect either the integrity or the validity of the current study. It is noteworthy that the blanks were below the limit of quantification, as expected. Finally, LAB3822 is considered as stable in DMSO solutions for 8 months, when stored at –80°C.
