OECD SIDS o-<strong>TOLUIDINE</strong><br />

5. TOXICITY ID: <strong>95</strong>-<strong>53</strong>-4<br />

DATE: 07.01.2005<br />

METABOLIC ACTIVATION SYSTEM:<br />

S9 mix liver homogenates from with phenobarbital and betanaphthoflavone<br />

induced rats<br />

Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />

evaluation of assay systems,in accordance with the guidline<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

21.05.2004 (172) (173)<br />

Type : Mammalian cell gene mutation assay<br />

System of testing : Chinese hamster V79 cells<br />

Test concentration : +S9-mix: 0, 1, 10, 50, 100, 500 µg/ml; -S9-mix: 0, 10, 50, 100, 500, 1000<br />

µg/ml<br />

Cycotoxic concentr. : > 500 µg/ml<br />

Metabolic activation : with and without<br />

Result : positive<br />

Method : other: replating method Fox, M. (1975): Mutat. Res. 29, 449-466<br />

Year : 1984<br />

GLP : no data<br />

Test substance : other TS: o-toluidine, no data on purity<br />

Result : o-toluidine was positive without S9 mix<br />

Test condition : --cells from normal young adult male Chinese hamsters<br />

--Incubation with test substance in the presence and in the absence of a<br />

metabolic activation system for 3 hours at 38°C, then cells were rinsed<br />

twice with Hanks's solution and incubated in normal medium for a mutation<br />

expression time of 6 days<br />

--then treatment with trypsin and replated in medium containing 6TG for 14<br />

days<br />

--cell colonies formed were fixed and stainde and the number of 6TGresistant<br />

colonies was scored<br />

--METABOLIC ACTIVATION:<br />

S9 mix liver homogenates with phenobarbital and 5,6-benzoflavone<br />

induced rats<br />

--the observed number of induced 6TG-resistant mutant colonies induced<br />

by o-toluidine was corrected for the decrease in the colony-forming activity<br />

of cells in normal medium due to the cytotoxic action of the chemical. The<br />

number of induced mutants was calculated by subtracting the number of<br />

colonies in untreated controll cultures (no further data).<br />

Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />

assay system evaluation, well documented<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

Type : Mouse lymphoma assay<br />

System of testing : L5178Y TK-/TK+<br />

Test concentration : +S9-mix: 120-903 µg/ml in DMSO; -S9-mix: 80-1072 mg/ml in DMSO<br />

Cycotoxic concentr. : +S9-mix: ca. 350 µg/ml; -S9-mix: ca: 500 µg/ml<br />

Metabolic activation : with and without<br />

Result : negative<br />

Method : other: according Clive et al., 1972, 16, 77-87 and Mutation Res. 31, 17-29<br />

(1975)<br />

Year : 1985<br />

GLP : no data<br />

Test substance : other TS: o-toluidine, no data on purity<br />

Result : o-Toluidine was not considered mutagenic in either the presence or<br />

absence of liver S9 activation mix. Careful examination of the data does<br />

suggest, however, that this chemical was more cytotoxic in the presence of<br />

S9, along with a slight increase in mutant frequency.<br />

The positivecontrols were functional.<br />
