Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

Reverse gene mutation assay was conducted in line with Guidelines for Screening Mutagenicity

Testing of Chemicals (Japan) and OECD Test Guidelines 471 and 472, using the pre-incubation

method. This study was well controlled and regarded as a key study.

Dibutyl adipate showed negative results in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA1535, TA98,

TA1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 uvrA at concentrations up to 5 mg/plate with or without a

metabolic activation system (MHW, 1996b).
