Method

Species / strain
Species / strain / cell type:
S. typhimurium TA 1535, TA 1537, TA 98 and TA 100
Additional strain / cell type characteristics:
other: essential amino acid requiring strains
Metabolic activation:
with and without
Metabolic activation system:
liver S9 mix from male Sprague Dawley rats treated by single intraperitoneal injection with Aroclor 1254 (500 mg/kg bw) for enzyme induction. Aroclor 1254 was administered 5 days prior to sacrifice.
Test concentrations with justification for top dose:
Experiment 1 (Standard Plate Test, without and with metabolic activation (S9 mix), Doses: 0; 20; 100; 500; 2500 and 5000 μg/plate
Experiment 2 (Pre-incubation Test, without and with metabolic activation (S9 mix), Doses: 0; 20; 100; 500; 2500 and 5000 μg/plate

Remarks:
without and with S9 mix
True negative controls:

Positive control substance:
other: N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine for TA 1535 & TA 100; 4-nitro-o-phenylendiamine for TA 98; 9-aminoacridine chloride monohydrate for TA 1537 (each positive control substance disolved in DMSO)
Remarks:
Positive control substances for tests without metabolic activation (S9 mix). All of them are well established reference mutagens.
Details on test system and experimental conditions:
Standard Plate Tests were performed in Experiment 1, Pre-incubation Tests in Experiment 2.
Both experiments were conducted without and with metabolic activation (S9 mix)

The following positive controls were used to check mutability of the bacteria and activity of the S9 mix:

With metabolic activation (S9 mix):

2-aminoanthracene:
- 10 μg/plate, dissolved in DMSO: for the strains: TA 1535, TA 100, TA 1537, TA 98

Without metabolic activation (S9 mix):

N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine:
- 5 μg/plate, dissolved in DMSO: for the strains: TA 1535, TA 100

4-nitro-o-phenylendiamine:
- 10 μg/plate, dissolved in DMSO: for the strain: TA 98

9-aminoacridine chloride monohydrate:
- 100 μg/plate, dissolved in DMSO: for the strain: TA 1537


Evaluation criteria:
In general, a substance to be characterized as positive in the Ames test has to fulfill the following requirements:
- doubling of the spontaneous mutation rate (control),
- dose-response relationship,
- reproducibility of the results.
Statistics:
Statistical analysis of the results was not reported. Obviously it was not considered to be necessary.

Additional information on results:
The test substance was completely soluble in the vehicle, aqua dest.

Contamination was noted only in one plate which was one of the TA 100 without metabolic activation at 20 µg/plate. In all other solvent control, test substance treated or positive control plates contamination was not evident.
