I. Introduction A sam ple identified as T-1485 was received from 3M Company for
the purpose of conducting re v erse m utation studies. The test m aterial was evaluated for genetic activity in m icrobial assays with and w ithout the addition of m am m alian m etabolic activation p rep aratio n s. This rep o rt presents the resu lts of the investigation.

II. Sum m ary The te st m a teria l, T-1485, w as exam ined for m utagenic activity-
in a se rie s of in vitro m icrobial assays using Salm onella and S accharom yces indicator organism s. The test m aterial was tested directly and in the p re sence of liver m icrosom al enzyme preparations from A roclor-induced ra ts. D ose lev e ls of 0. 25, 0. 5, 5, and 50 pg of T-1485 p e r p la te w e re u se d in both the nonactivation and the activation tests. Some physiological effect w as o b se rv e d at the h ig h est dose lev el (50 p g /p la te). The low er dose levels w ere below toxic levels.
The resu lts obtained w ith the positive control m aterials dem onstrate that the test system s are functional with known m utagens.
The re su lts of the te sts conducted w ith T-1485, both in the absence and in the presence of the ra t liv er activation system , w ere all negative.
It w as concluded that T-1485 did not exhibit genetic activity in any of the in v itro assay s em ployed in this investigation.

from the liv ers of adult m ale Sprague - Dawley ra ts. The anim als w ere tre ate d w ith 500 m g/kg of A roclor 1254 five days before kill. A sufficient num ber of anim als to provide the n ecessary quantities of liv er w ere killed by cranial blow, decapitated, and exsanguinated. The liv er was im m ediately d issected from each anim al using asep tic techniques and placed in ice-co ld 0. 25 M su cro se buffered w ith T ris at a pH of 7. 4. Upon collection of the desired quantity of liv e rs, they w ere v/ashed tw ice with fresh buffered sucrose and com pletely hom ogenized w ith a m o tor-driv en hom ogenizing unit at 4C. The liver hom ogenate obtained from this step was centrifuged fo r 20 m in u tes at 9, 000 x in a re fr ig e ra te d c e n trifu g e . The su p e rn a ta n t from the centrifuged sam ple was retained and frozen at -80 C. Sam ples from this preparation w ere used for the activation tests.

added to the appropriate tubes, which w ere then m ixed and the contents
poured over the surface of a m inim al agar (selective m edium ) plate and

and scored for the num ber of colonies growing on each plate. P ositive and
solvent controls w ere run w ith each assay.

IV. R esults A sum m ary of the plate test resu lts is presented in Table I. The
test m aterial was evaluated at a series of dose levels such that the highest le v e l (50 p g /p la te) show ed som e p h y sio lo g ical effect. T he lo w er dose levels (0.25, 0.5, and 5 pg/plate) w ere below toxic lev els. The resu lts obtained with the positive control m aterials dem onstrate that the test system s are functional w ith known m utagens.
The re su lts of the te sts conducted with T-1485 w ere all negative.
