Details on test system and experimental conditions:

METHOD OF APPLICATION: in agar (plate incorporation)

DURATION
- Exposure duration: 48+-4h

SELECTION AGENT (mutation assays): Histidine (S. Typhimurium histidine-dependent strains)

NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: all concentrations for all experiments were tested in triplicate

NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: the number of revertant colonies was counted for each plate.

DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: the reduction of the bacterial background lawn; the increase in the size of the microcolonies; the reduction of the revertant colonies
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity: any increase in the total number of revertants was evaluated for its biological relevance inclusing a comparison of the results with the historical control data range.

Evaluation criteria:

A test item is considered negative (not mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in the tester strain TA100 or TA102 is not greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, and the total number of revertants in tester strains TA1535, TA1537 or TA98 is not greater than three (3) times the concurrent vehicle control.
b) The negative response should be reproducible in at least one follow-up experiment.

A test item is considered positive (mutagenic) in the test if:
a) The total number of revertants in tester strain TA100 or TA102 is greater than two (2) times the concurrent control, or the total number of revertants in tester strain TA1535, TA1537 or TA98 is greater than three (3) times the concurrent control.
b) A concentration related effect is observed.
c) In case a follow up experiment is performed when a positive response is observed in one of the tester strains, the positive response should be reproducible in at least one follow up experiment.

Statistics:

No formal hypothesis testing was done.

Additional information on results:

TEST-SPECIFIC CONFOUNDING FACTORS
- Water solubility: the test item was not soluble in Milli-Q water
- Precipitation: Precipitation of the test item on the plates was not observed at the start or at the end of the incubation period in any experiment.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES: test item was tested in tester strain TA100 at concentrations of 1.7, 5.4, 17, 52, 164, 512, 1600 and 5000 μg/plate in the absence and presence of S9-mix. Normal bacterial background lawn and no precipitate were observed up to the highest dose. Based on the results of the dose range finding test, the dose ranges for experiment I for TA1535, TA1537, TA98 and TA102 were selected.

HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA (with ranges, means and standard deviation and confidence interval (e.g. 95%)
- Positive historical control data: The strain-specific positive control values were within the laboratory historical control data ranges
- Negative (solvent/vehicle) historical control data: The negative control values were within the laboratory historical control data ranges

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used: Reduction in bacterial background lawn; increase in size of the microcolonies; reduction of revertant colonies
- Other observations when applicable: Fluctuations in the number of revertant colonies below the historical control data range in tester strain TA102 were observed at dose levels of 1568 µg/plate and above (without S9-mix) and at 492, 2800 and 5000 µg/plate (with S9-mix). The mean number of revertant colonies was comparable to the solvent control value, indicating the reduction is caused by incidental fluctuations in the number of revertant colonies.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
