The clastogenecity and mutagenicity of antifungal 6-[(N-halophenyl)amino]-7-chloro-5, 8-quinolinedione (RCK 3, 7, 13, 14, and 15) had been evaluated. Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay (Ames test) was used to test the mutagenicity of RCKs. RCK14 was mutagenic in S. typhimurium(TA98 and TA100) with and without rat liver microsomal activation. Whereas RCK3, 7, 13 and 15 were negative in Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium(TA98 and TA100), The clastogenecity was tested on the RCKs with in vivo mouse micronucleus assay. All of RCKs tested did not show any clastogenic effect in mouse peripheral blood. Thus RCKs were not supposed to cause any chromosomal damage termed micronuclei. These results indicate that RCK 3, 7, 13 and 15 have no genotoxic potential under these experimental condition.

감궁탕의 돌연변이원성을 유무를 알아보기 위해 Salmonella typhimurium TA 98 및 TA100을 이용한 돌연변이 원성 실험에서도 감궁탕은 어느 균에서도 돌연변이원성을 나타내지 않았으며, 이는 S-9 mixture 의해 감궁탕이 대사가 된 후에도 이와 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. 또한, SOS umu test의 경우에서도 $\beta-galactosidase$활성에는 별다른 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 보아 감궁탕은 돌연변이원성을 일으키지 않는 것으로 판정되었으며 S-9 mixture처리에 의한 대사 후에도 이와 유사한 실험결과가 나타났다. 따라서 감궁탕은 그 자체 및 대사 후에도 DNA에 별다른 영향을 미치지 못하는 비교적 안전한 생약처방으로 여겨진다.

우리나라에서 오랫동안 식용(食用)하여 온 고사리에 대하여 Salmonella typhimurium을 이용한 Ames test에 의하여 돌연변이 유발성(誘發性)을 조사하였다. 그 결과 생(生)고사리의 증류수 추출물은 낮은 농도에서 TA 1538 균주(菌株)에 대하여 역돌연변이(逆突然變異)를 일으켰으며 높은 농도에서는 독성(毒性)을 강하게 나타냈다. 그러나 $S_9$ mix 첨가시 모든 시험균주에 대하여 돌연변이를 유발시키지 않았고 독성도 나타내지 않았다. 조리(調理)한 고사리의 경우 증류수 추출물의 양은 생고사리의 1/10로 감소하였고 돌연변이 유발능도 검출되지 않았다. 고사리의 70% 에탄올 추출물은 어느 경우에나 돌연변이 유발능을 나타내지 않았다.

This study was carried out to investigate mutagenecity and antimutagenic effects from crude extract, heating extract and alcohol extract of Korean mistletoe(Viscum album L.) on the bacterial short-term tests, such as Ames test, spore rec-assay, SOS spot test and SOS chromotest by using several kinds of mutagens. In the Ames test, each extract did not show any mutagenesis, but each extract showed inhibitory effects of 80∼95% and 70∼94% against mutagenesis induced by 3-amino-1, 4-dimethyl-5H-pyrido[4,3-b] indole(Trp-P-1) and 2-aminofluorene(2-AF) in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, respectively. In th spore rec-assay, mistletoe ectracts showed antimutagenic effect with inhibiton zone in the range of 5∼11mm against mutagenicity induced by mitomycin C(MMC, 18mm) and N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidne (MNNG, 24mm), respectively. The heating and alcohol extracts in the SOS chromotest showed 96% and 70% inhibition against benzo-α-pyrene[B(α)P] and Trp-P-1 induced mutagenesis, respectively.

In order to determine the effectiveness of linoleic acid(LA) to inhibit carcinogens/mutagens-induced mu-tagenesis, Ames test using Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and the SOS chromotest using E. Coli PQ37, were carried out. The inhibitory effect of LA(1%) on the Ames mutagenicity test were 98%, 78%and 69% mediated by aflatoxin B₁(AFB₁), N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) and 4-nitroquinoline-1-oxide(4-NQO), respectively. LA exhibited a strong antimutagenic activity aganist indirect mutagen, AFB₁whereas exhibited the same concentration of LA showed weaker inhibitory effects on direct mutagens of MNNG and 4-NQO than that AFB₁. LA also reduced the SOS responses induced by MNNG and 4-NQO significantly. This result showed a possibility that LA can be a protective agent in early step of cancinogenesis.

The antimutagenic activities of the total extract and several fractions of starfish, Asterina pectinifera (Asteriidae), were investigated in vitro by SOS chromotest with Escherichia coli PQ37 and Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium TA100. When various fractions was tested, the chloroform and butanol fractions showed low induction factors, which means both fractions increased antigenotoxicity against the base substitution mutagen MNNG. Even though higher antigenotoxic effect of the chloroform fraction, no effective result of Ames test was found in revertant formation of S. typhimurium TA100. The most effective antigenotoxic and antimutagenic fraction was a butanol one: i.e., When 0.5 mg/tube of butanol fraction was applied, the induction factor was 0.68. As the concentration of the fraction was increased the formation of revertants of S. typhimurium TA100 by about 81%. There was no cytotoxic effect of butanol fraction against S.typhimurium TA100. This result might be useful for further study to search a possible anticancer agent from the starfish, Asterina pectinifera.

The genotoxicological safety of fermented vegetables pasteurized by gamma irradiation was examined to consider the possibility of the application of irradiation for extending of fermented vegetables. A fermented vegetable was irradiated at 20 kGy to assure its toxicological safety even at a high dose of radiation. The Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium (TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537) and Escherchia coli (WP2), and the chromosomal aberration test in Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells were performed. In vivo micronucleus test were conducted in mouse bone marrow cells. With or without metabolic activation, negative results were obtained in the Ames test and the chromosomal aberration test. In the micronucleus test, there was no enhancement in the formation of micronucleus, and there were no such significant differences between the irradiated and non-irradiated samples. The observed results indicated that, a level of 20 kGy of gamma irradiation on the fermented vegetable did not bring about any genotoxic effects under the described experimental conditions.

Antigenotoxicity test (SOS chromotest), antimutagenecity test (Ames test), and antioxidant test (NBT method and xanthine-xanthine oxidase method) were carried out using water-soluble and methanolic extracts from Puerariae Flos. Against the mutagens MNNG and NQO, antigenotoxic activity of methanolic extracts were much more effective than that of water-soluble ones. When the methanolic extract was added to the certain concentration $(100{\mu}{\ell}/tube)$, antigenotoxic acivity against the mutagen MNNG was enhanced. Contrary to the water-soluble extract, the methanolic extract showed high antigenotoxicity against the mutagen NQO with increment of the extract. Against the mutagen MNNG with Ames test, antimutagenic activity of the methanolic extract at $300{\mu}{\ell}/tube$ was 96% as an inhibition ratio of revertant forming CFU/plate. The antioxidant activity of water-soluble extract was comparatively higher than that of the methanolic one.

양송이(mushroom : Agaricus bisporus)로부터 polyphenol oxidase를 추출하여 4종류의 polyphenol 화합물과 반응시켜 양송이 효소 갈변반응생성물을 얻고, 이들 갈변물질들에 대하여 B. subtilis $H17(rec^+)$과 $M45(rec^-)$를 이용한 spore rec-assay, S. typhimurium TA98과 TA100을 이용한 Ames test 그리고 E. coli PQ37을 이용한 SOS chromotest를 실시하여 돌연변이원성 및 항돌연변이원성을 검토하였다. Spore rec-assay에서는 4가지 갈변물질 모두 B. subtilis $H17(rec^+)$과 $M45(rec^-)$ 두 균주에 대하여 생육저지대의 차이가 없었으므로 갈변물질 자체로서는 돌연변이원성이 없는 것으로 나타났으며, MNNG에 대한 항돌연변이원성 실험에서는 시료 모두 돌연변이에 대하여 억제활성을 나타내었으며 그중 HHQ-MEBRP는 가장 강한 억제활성을 나타내었다. Ames test에서는 4가지 시료 모두 돌연변이원성은 인정되지 않았으며, 항돌연변이원성 실험에서는 시료 $300\;{\mu}l$ 첨가시 $B({\alpha})P(20\;{\mu}g)$에 대하여 S. typhimurium TA98 및 TA100 두 균주에서 Ca-MEBRP와 HHQ-MEBRP는 $91{\sim}95%$, HCa-MEBRP와 Py-MEBRP는 $50{\sim}80%$의 억제활성을 나타내었다. $Trp-P-1(2\;{\mu}g)$에 대해서도 4가지 시료 모두 억제활성을 나타내었으며, HHQ-MEBRP는 TA98과 TA100 두 균주 모두에서 99%, HCa-MEBRP도 96%의 강한 억제활성을 나타내었다. SOS chromotest에서도 spore rec-assay와 Ames test에서와 같이 시료 자체의 돌연변이원성은 없는 것으로 나타났으며 4NQO와 MMC와 같은 돌연변이원물질에 의한 SOS-inducing function에 대하여 억제효과가 있었으므로 항돌연변이원성이 있음이 확인되었다.

Zizyphi spinosi semen (Z. spinosi) has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and wounds. However, toxicity in high doses was often observed due to the presence of alkaloids. This study was conducted to investigate the potential genotoxicity of Z. spinosi in vitro and in vivo. This was examined by the Bacterial reverse mutation (Ames) test using Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and Escherichia coli WP2uvrA, Chromosomal aberration was investigated using Chinese hamster lung cells and the micronucleus test using mice. Z. Spinosi did not induce mutagenicity in the Ames test, and it did not produce chromosomal aberration in Chinese hamster lung cells with and without metabolic activation, nor in the micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in the bone marrow cells in mice. Based on these results, it is concluded that Z. spinosi does not have mutagenic potential under the conditions examined in each study.
