a

Test Group A: adequately tested, either positive by at least 1 analysis method, or if negative tested to limit conc. or approached/achieved cytotoxicity limit, n = 74; Group S: top concentration limited by solubility (in DMSO), n = 14. Group I: inadequately tested, negative result and did not approach or achieve cytotoxicity limit, and did not reach limit conc. or solubility limit, n = 15.

b

Unless otherwise stated Ames and in vitro mammalian cell results refer to test conditions in the absence of exogenous metabolic activation.

c

Insufficient means an expected in vitro mammalian cell genotoxicity call cannot be made at this time for lack of sufficient conventional genotoxicity data.
