Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Fenchone (1195-79-5) was evaluated for its mutagenic potential in F344 male rats by micronucleus assy. The test result was considered to be ambiguous.
Executive summary:

In vivo Gene mutation study of Fenchone was assessed for its possible mutagenic potential. For this Purpose micronucleus assay was performed as per similar to guideline study in F344 male rats. The test material was exposed 3 times in 72 hours by Intraperitoneal Injection at the concentration of 0,156,312,625,1250 and 2500mg/kg. The erythrocyte was examined for micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes . The test result was compared to positive control Cyclophosphamide. The test result was considered to beambiguous. Therefore Fenchone test result was considered to be ambiguous for this study.
