(R)-JG-381, a R form of alkylglycidic acid derivative, was examined for mutagenicity in the reverse mutation test on bacteria, chromosomal aberration test on cultured mammalian cells and micronucleus test in mice. In the reverse mutation test on bacteria using Salmonella typhimurium strain TA98, TA100, TA102, TA1535, TA1537 with or without a metabolic activation system (S9 mix), (R)-JG-381 did not affect the revertant colonies but significantly increased revertant colonies in one test strain, TA98, compared with the vehicle control. In the chromosomal aberration (CA) test using cultured Chinese Hamster Lung fibroblast(CHL) cells, the number of aberrant cells was clot increased in the presence or absence of 59 mix at concentration of the (R)-JG-381 0.025 $mu$l/m1 to 0.1 $mu$l/m1, compared with vehicle control. In the micronucleus (MN) test, micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in the (R)-JG-381-treated mice were not different from those of the vehicle-treated mice.
