Objectives: This study was to assess the toxicity of Sipjeondaebo-tang by bacterial reverse mutation test. Methods: In this study, to evaluate the bacterial reverse mutation of Sipjeondaebo-tang water-extract, the in vitro Ames test using Salmonella typhimurium (TA98, TA100, TA1,535, TA1,537) and Escherichia coli(WP2uvrA) were performed with Sipjeondaebo-tang water extract at the concentrations 0, 312, 625, 1250, 2500 and 5000 ${\mu}g/plate$. Results: Sipjeondaebo-tang water extract was negative in Ames test with both Salmonella typhimurium or Escherichia coli with and without rat liver microsomal enzyme (S9- fraction and S+ fraction). Conclusions: According to these results, we concluded that a Sipjeondaebo-tang water extract did not cause bacterial reverse mutation.

The post-mitochondrial liver fractions (S-9) were prepared from rats and hamsters which have been treated with Aroclor 1254 (PCB) and the capacities of these S-9 fractions to generate mutagenic metabolites from several well known procarcinogens have been compared. Benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P), 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC), Aflatoxin B1(AFB1), 2-acetylamino-fluorene(AAF), and 2-aminofluorene (AF) were employed as promutagens in the Salmonella reverse mutation tests. Results showed that the rat and hamster S-9 fractions had differential abilities to produce mutagenic metabolites from a given promutagen.

To evaluate the bacterial reverse mutation of wild ginseng culture extract, the in vitro Ames test using Salmonella typhimurium (TA100, TA1,535, TA98, TA1,537) and Escherichia coli (WP2 uvrA) were performed with wild ginseng extract at the concentrations 0, 1.6, 8, 40, 200, 1,000, 2,500 and $5,000{\mu}g/ml/plate$. Wild ginseng culture extract was negative in Ames test with both Salmonella typhimurium or Escherichia coli with and without rat liver microsomal enzyme (S-9 fraction). According to these results, we concluded that wild ginseng culture extract did not cause bacterial reverse mutation.

To evaluate the bacterial reverse mutation of xylooligosaccharide(XO)s the in vitro Ames test using Salmonella typhimurium (TA9S, TAIOO, TA1535, TA1537) and Escherichia coli (WP2 uvrA) was performed. XO was negative in Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium and Escherichia coli with and without rat liver microsomal enzyme (S-9 fraction). According to the results, XO does not cause bacterial reverse mutation.

We have investigated the genotoxicity of 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene using Ames reverse mutation test. In Ames reverse mutation test, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene treatment at the dose of 100, 50, 25, 12.5, $6.25{\mu}g/plate$ did not induce mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and in Escherichia coli WP2uvrA with and without metabolic activation. These results indicate that 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene has no mutagenic potential under the rendition in this study.

To evaluate the genotoxicity of CKD-602, an anticancer agent the in viかo reverse mutation assay using Salmonella typhimurium, the Chromosome aberration assay using Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells and the in vivo micronucleus assay using bone marrow cells of ddY mice were performed. In the reverse mutation assay, CKD-602 did not induced mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, and TA 1537 strains with and without metabolic activation. In the chromosome aberration test using CHL cells, there was an increased incidence of structural aberrations induced by CKD-602 without metabolic activation during 24 and 48 hours, but CKD-602 did not induce chromosome aberration with metabolic activation. The in vivo induction of micronuclei was measured in polychromatic erythrocytes of bone marrow of male ddY mice. At 24 hours after treatment with CED-602 by i.p. once, there was an increased incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow of ddY male mice.

To evaluate the genotoxicity of SKP-450, an antihypertensive agent the in vitro reverse mutation assay using Salmonella typhimurium, the Chromosome aberration assay using Chinese hamster lung (CHL) cells and the in vivo micronucleus assay using bone marrow cells of ddY mice were performed. In the Reverse mutation test, SKP-450 did not induced mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535 and TA 1537 with and without metabolic activation. In the chromosome aberration assay using CHL cells, there was no increased incidence of structural and numerical aberrations with and without metabolic activation. The in vivo induction of micronuclei was measured in polychromatic erythrocytes of bone marrow of male ddY mice at 30 hours after treatment with SKP-450 by p.o once. The results showed no increased incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow of ddY male mice treated with SKP-450.

(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.

To evaluate the genotoxicity of CJ-11555, an anti-cirrhotic agent, the reverse mutation test, chromosomal aberration test and in vivo micronucleus test in rats were performed. In the reverse mutation test, the treatment of CJ-11555 at doses of 33.3, 100, 333, 1000, 3330 and 5000 $\mu\textrm{g}$/plate with and without 89 did not induce mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537, and Escherichia coli (E. call) WP2uvrA. In chromosomal aberration test, CJ-11555 did not induce structural a chromosomal aberration in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells with and without metabolic activation at all doses. In micronucleus test, CJ-11555 did not induce any statistically significant increases in micronucleated polychromatic erythrocyte (MNPCE) at doses of 500, 1000, and 2000 mg/kg. These results suggest that CJ-11555 might not have a mutagenic potential under the conditions in this study.
