Study Design and Parameters: Purified 8-2 Alcohol was tested in the plate incorporation reverse mutation assay using S. typhimurium strains TAOS, TA100, TAIS3S and TAIS37, and E.coli strain WP2uvrA, with and withouat metabolic activation system ($9) containing induced hepatic microsomal enzymes from AroclorTM 1254-treated rat, Initial and confirmatory mutagenicity assays were conducted. Each assay included vehicle and positive controls, and six dose levelsofPurified 8-2 Alcohol, with and without metabolic activation. DosesofPurified 8-2 Alcohol evaluated, based on theresultsof a dose rangefinding assay and selected in conjunction with the Sponsor, were 33.3, 100, 333, 1000, 3330 and 5000 g/plate with and without S9. Each test and control article dose was evaluated in triplicate plates in cach strain. The dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) vehicle control, as well as the test and positive control articles were administered in a volume of 50 uL. Results: No toxicity was observed in any teste stain i the presence or absence of $9 up to the maximum dose testedof 5000 kg/plate. The mean numberofrevertants per plate did not meet the criteria for a positive response in any tester strain with or without $9. All criteria for a valid study including appropriate vehicle and positive control responses (with the exception ofpositive control values for TALS37 without 9 in Experiment 22900-Cl, see Protocol Deviation), were fulfilled. Conclusion: Purified 8-2 Alcohol was not mutagenic in this test system. 000035 Purified 8-2 Alcohol Covance Study 22900-0-4090ECD 8 1 OBJECTIVE, `The objectiveofthis study was to evaluate the test article for the ability to induce reverse mutations at the histidine locus in several strainsof Salmonella typhimurium (TA98, TA100, TALS35 and TA1537), and at the tryptophan locus in Escherichia col tester strain WP2uvrA, in the presence or absenceofan exogenous metabolic activation system (S9). The assay design was based on OECD Guideline 471, updated and adopted July 21, 1997. 2 MATERIALS 21 Tester Strains, `The tester strains used were the Salmonella typhimurium histidine auxotrophs TA98, TA100, `TAIS3S and TAIS37 (Ames et al, 1975) and the Escherichia coli tryptophan ausotroph `WP2uvrA (Green and Muriel, 1976). The specific genotypesofthe strains are shown below (Table 1). T--ab_le I. Tester Strain Genotypes Tesersin (hiHsteorry wi Addhiona Muswion"s Plasmid 3 HsD3052 wb 3 MIO Tai iss. wb " pRMIOL Tass his wb oo - Tis hscsors wr " WhrA w wna - -- In addition to a mutation in the histidine or tryptophan operons,thetester strains contain two additional mutations which enhance their sensitivity to some mutagenic compounds. A mutationofthe wvrA gene (Escherichia coli) or the uvrB gene (Salmonella typhimurium), results in a deficient DNA excision repair system which greatly enhances the sensitivity of 000037 PCuorviafniecdeS-t2uAdlyc2oh2o9l00-0-4090ECD 9 these strains to some mutagens. Since the ur deletion extends through the bio gene, the Salmonella typhimurium teste strains containing this deletion also require the vitamin biotin for growth. `The Salmonella typhimurium tester strains also contain the rfa wall mutation which results in the lossof oneofthe enzymes responsible for the synthesis ofpartof the lipopolysaccharide barrier that forms the surfaceof the bacterial cell wall. The resulting cell wall deficiency increases permeability to certain classesofchemicals sucha those containing large ring systems (ic., benzo[a]pyrene) that would otherwise be excluded by a normal intact cell wall, Strains TAS and TA100 also contain the pKM101 plasmid, which further increases the sensitivityofthese strains to some mutagens. The mechanism by which this plasmid increases sensitivity to mutagens has been suggested to be by modifying an existing bacterial DNA repair polymerase complex involved with the mismatch-repair process. Tester strains TAOS and TA1S37 are reverted from histidine dependence (auxotrophy) to histidine independence (prototrophy) by frameshift mutagens. Tester strains TAL00, TAIS35 and WP2uvrA are reverted from auxotrophy to prototrophy by base substitution mutagens. 211 SourceofTester Strains "The Salmonella typhimurium ester strains were received from Dr. Bruce Ames, Department of Biochemistry, University ofCalifornia, Berkeley. The Escherichia coli tester stain, WP2uurA, was received from The National CollectionofIndustrial Bacteria, Torrey Research Station, Scotland (United Kingdom). 000038 PCuorviafniecde8S-t2uAdlyc2oh2o9l00-0-4090ECD 10 212 StorageofTester Strain 2121 Frozen Permanent Stocks Frozen permanent stocks were prepared by growing fresh overnight cultures, adding DMSO (0.09 mUimLof culture) and freezing small aliquots at <-70C. 2122 Master Plates Master plates ofthe tester strains were prepared by streaking cach tester srain from a frozen `permanent stock onto minimal agar appropriately supplemented with either histidine and biotin (5. typhimurium) or tryptophan (E. col), and fo strains containing the pKM101 plasmid, ampicillin. Tester srain master plates were stored at 5 & 3C. 213 Preparationof Overnight Cultures 213.1 Inoculation Overnight cultures for use in all esting procedures were inoculated by transferring a colony from the appropriate master plate to a flask containing culture medium. Inoculated flasks were placed in a shaker/incubator which was programmed to begin operation (shaking, 125 225 rpm; incubation, 37 + 2C) so that the overnight cultures were in log phase or late log phase when turbidity monitoring began. 2132 Harvest To ensure that cultures were harvested in late log phase, the lengthofincubation was determined by spectrophotometric monitoringof culture density. Cultures were harvested once a predetermined density was reached, which ensures that cultures have reached a density ofatleast 0.5 x 10 cells/mL and that the cultures have not overgrown. Overgrown of -- 000039 CPuorviafnicede 8S-t2uAdlyc2oh2o9l00-0-4090ECD n stationary cultures may exhibit decreased sensitivity to some mutagens. Cultures were: removed from incubation when the target density was reached and were placed at 5 3C until used inthe assay. 214 ConfirmationofTester Strain Phenotypes Tester strain cultures were checked for the following genetic markers on the dayoftheir use in the mutagenicity assay: 2141 ofa Wall Mutation For the Salmonella tester stcains, the presenceofthe rfa wall mutation was confirmed by demonstrationofthe sensitivityofthe culture o crystal violet. An aliquotof an overnight cultureof ach strain was overlaid onto plates containing selective media and an antibiotic sensitivity disk containing 10 jigof crystal violet was added. Sensitivity was demonstrated by inhibitionofbacterial growth in a zone immediately surrounding the disk. 2142 PKMI01 Plasmid R-factor The presenceof the pKM101 plasmid was confirmed for culturesofester strains TAS and TAL00 by demonstrationofresistance to ampicillin. An aliquotofan overnight culture of ach stain was overlaid onto plates containing selective media and an antibiotic sensitivity disk containing 10 ugof ampicillin was added. Resistance was demonstrated by growth in the zone immediately surrounding the disk. 2143 Characteristic Number of Spontaneous Revertants `The mean numberof spontaneous revertants per plate in the vehicle controls that is characteristicofthe respective strains was demonstrated by plating 100 L aliquotsof each culture along with the appropriate vehicle on selective media. -------------- ee-- 000040 Purified 8-2 Alcohol Covance Study 22900-0-4090ECD 2 21s Tester Strain Media 2151 Culturing Broth `The broth used to grow overnight culturesof the tester strains was Vogel-Bonner salt solution (Vogel and Bonner, 1956) supplemented with 2.5% (w/v) Oxoid Nutrient Broth No. 2 dry powder). 2152 Minimal Bottom Agar Plates Bottom agar (25 mLper 15 x 100 mm petri dish) was Vogel-Bonner minimal medium E (Vogel and Bonner, 1956), supplemented with 1.5% (w/v) agar and 0.2% (wi) glucose. 2153 "Top Agar for Selection ofRevertants Top (overlay) agar was prepared with 0.7% agar (w/v) and 0.5% NaCl (ws) and was supplemented with 10 mL of 1) 0.5 mM histidine/biotin solution per 100mL agar for selectionofhistidine revertants, or 2) 0.5 mM tryptophan solution per 100 mLofagar for selection of tryptophan revertants When $9 mix was required, 2.0 mLofthe supplemented top agar was used in the overlay. However, when 9 mix was not required, water was added to the supplemented top agar (0.5 mLofwater per 2 mLofsupplemented top agar) and the resulting 2.5 mLofdiluted supplemented top agar was used forthe overlay. This dilution ensured thatthe final top agar `and amino acid supplement concentrations remained the same bothin the presence and absence of $9 mix. ------------------ 000041 PCuorviafnicede 8S-t2uAdlyco2h2o9l00-0-4090ECD 3 22 Test Article Test Article: Haskell Number: ~~ Purified 24691 8-2 Alcohol PDhaytseicRaelceDievscerdi:ption: White solid 8 August 2001 The test article, Purified 8-2 Alcohol, was supplied as a white solid.

Ten dosesoftest article, up to 5000 plate, were tested for cytotoxicity (one plate per dose). 312 Rationale "The eytotoxicityofthe test article observed in tester strain TAL0Oi generally representative of that observed on the other Salmonella typhimurium tester strains and becauseof the comparatively high numberof spontaneous revertants per plate observed with this strain, gradationsof cytotoxicity can be readily discerned from routine experimental variation. The Escherichia coli tester strain WP2uvrA does not possess the rfa wall mutation that the Salmonella typhimurium strains have and thus,a different rangeof cytotoxicity may be observed. Also, the cytotoxicity induced by a test article in the presence of $9 may vary greatly from that observed in the absence of $9. Therefore, this would require that different test article dose ranges be tested in the mutagenicity assay based on the presenceorabsence ofthe microsomal enzymes. 313 Evaluationofthe Dose Rangefinding Study Cytotoxicity is detectable as a decrease in the numberofrevertant colonies per plate and/or by a thinning or disappearanceofthe bacterial background lawn. 314 Selectionof the Maximum Dose for the Mutagenicity Assay No cytotoxicity was observed in the dose rangefinding study and the highest dose leveloftest article used in the subsequent mutagenicity assay was that used in the dose rangefinding study (the reduction in background lawn observed in tester strain TA100 without S9 was not accompanied bya decrease in revertant frequency and likely was artifactual), a -------- eS---- EE ------ 000045 PCuorviafniecde8S-t2uAdlye2oh2o9l00-0-4090ECD 17 32 Mutagenicity Assay 321 Design "The assay was performed using tester strains TAS, TA100, TALS3S, TA1537 and WP2uwA in the presence and absenceof $9. Doses of the test article were selected based on the results ofthe dose rangefinding study. The resultsofthe initial mutagenicity assay were confirmed in an independent experiment. 322 Frequency and RouteofAdministration The tester strains were exposed to the test article via the plate incorporation methodology originally described by Ames eral. (1975) and Maron and Ames (1983). This methodology has been shown to detecta wide rangeofclassesofchemical mutagens. In the plate incorporation methodology, the test article, the tester strain, and the S9 mix (where appropriate) were combined in molten agar which was overlaid onto a minimal agar plate. Following incubation, revertant colonies were counted. All dosesofthe test article, the vehicle controls and the positive conirols were plated in triplicate. 33 Plating Procedures `These procedures were used in the dose rangefinding study and the mutagenicity assay. Each plate was labeled with a code which identified the test article, tes phase, ester strain, activation condition and dose level. The 9 mix and dilutions of the test article were preparedimmediately prior to their use. `When $9 was not required, 100 WL of tester strain and 50 iLoftest or control article were added 10.2.5 mLofmolten selective top agar (maintained at 45 2C), When S9 was required, 500 UL of $9 mix, 100 iL of tester strain and 50 uLoftest or control article were. ee-------- eeeEee------ 000046 PCuorviafnicede 8S-t2uAdlyc2oh2o9l00-0-4090ECD 18 added 10.2.0 mL of molten selective top agar. After the required components had been added, the mixture was vortexed and overlaid onto the surfaceof25 mLofminimal bottom agar contained ina 15 x 100 mm petri dish. After the overlay solidified, the plates were inverted and incubated for 52 4 hours at 37 2C. 34 Scoring the Plates Plates which were not evaluated immediately following the incubation period were held at 523C until such time that colony counting and bacterial background lawn evaluation could take place. 341 Bacterial Background Lawn Evaluation The condition of the bacterial background lawn was evaluated macroscopically and. microscopically (using a dissecting microscope) for indicationsofcytotoxicity and test article precipitate. Evidenceofcytotoxicity was scored relative to the vehicle control plate and was recorded along with the revertant counts for all plates at that dose on the data tables using the code system described below (Appendix B). 342 Counting Revertant Colonics Revertant colonies were counted by automated colony counter 4 DATA a Data Presentation For all replicate platings, the mean revertants per plate and the standard deviation were calculated (Appendix A).

Apparently normal growth was observed in both tester strains at all doses evaluated with and without S9 (the reduction in background lawn observed in tester strain TA100 without S9 was not accompanied by a decrease in revertant frequency and likely was artifactual), However, the test article was found to be incompletely soluble in the aqueous top agar at a doseof 5000 ug/plate with and without $9. 73 9M-utSaugmenmiacriytyDAastsaa)y (Appendix A, Tables 6, 8 - Individual Data, Tables 7, Based upon theresults ofthe dose rangefinding study, Purified 8-2 Alcohol was evaluated in the inital mutagenicity assay in all five tester strains at dosesof 33.3, 100, 333, 1000, 3330 and 5000 pg/plate with and without $9 (Experiment 22900-BI, Tables 6 and 7). All doses of the test article, as well as the concurrent positive and vehicle controls, were evaluated using three plates per dose. Apparently normal growth again was observed in al tester strains at all dosesofPurified 8-2 Alcohol evaluated with and without $9. In addition, the test article: precipitated from solution at doses 21000 ug/plate with and without $9. Revertan. frequencies for all doses of Purified 8-2 Alcohol, in al teste strains with and without $9, approximated or were less than those observed in the concurrent vehicle contol cultures The test article was re-evaluated in an independent confirmatory experiment under identical `conditions, and similar results were observed (Experiment 22900-C1; Tables and 9), Normal growth was again observed in all tester strains at all doses evaluated with and without $9, and the test aticle again precipitated from solution at doses 21000 ug/plate with and without $9.

Except for tester rain TAIS37 without S9 in Experiment 22900-CI (see Protocol Deviation), all positive and vehicle control values were within acceptable ranges in both assays. All eiteia fora valid study were met. 8 CONCLUSIONS "The resultsofthe Salmonella - Escherichia coli/Mammalian- Microsome Reverse Mutation Assay indicate that under the conditions ofthis study, Purified 8-2 Alcohol was not `mutagenic in any ofthe tester trains in the presence or absenceofan exogenous metabolic activation system containing induced hepatic microsomal enzymes from AroclorTM 1254-treated rat. 9 PROTOCOL DEVIATIONS In Experiment 22900-C1, the test article-treated cultures for tester strain TALS37 without $9 were scored even though the concurrent postive control values were below acceptable limits (ll plates hadnorevertants). However, the vehicle control values for tester strain TA1S37 without S9 were within acceptable ranges. In addition, the positive control values for tester strain TAIS37 with $9 also were within acceptable limits, indicating that the tester strain and $9 were functioning properly. Thus, the observed low values were likely due to a technical error. This deviation is not considered to have had an adverse impact upon the integrity of the study or the conclusions derived from it. 000053 --E ---- emeee----e -- `PCuorivfainecde 8S-t2uAdlyc2oh2o9l00-0-4090ECD 2s 10.
