Acrolein was tested for mutagenic activity in seven strains of Salmonella typhimurium and one strain of Escherichia coli using a preincubation assay procedure. Cytotoxicity was evident at dosing levels above 33 and 67 μg acrolein per plate in the absence and presence of S‐9 activation, respectively. Evidence of mutagenic activity was seen at non‐toxic dosing levels in S. typhimurium strains TA98 and TA100 and E. coli strain WP2 uvrA. Responses in TA98 and E. coli were marginal at best, but a firm positive mutagenic activity was noted in TA100 at 20 μg per plate without S‐9 activation and at 67 μg per plate with S‐9 activation. The results of this study demonstrate the mutagenicity of acrolein under highly controlled conditions.
