제초제인 methiozolin에 대한 유전독성 영향을 평가하기 위하여 in vitro 시험으로 복귀돌연변이시험과 염색체 이상시험을 수행하였고, 그리고 in vivo 시험으로 소핵시험을 수행하였다. Salmonella typhimurium, 균주 TA98, TA100, TA1535 및 TA1537 및 Escherichia coli WP2uvrA를 이용한 복귀 돌연변이 시험에서 직접법과 대사활성화법(S9 mixture) 모두 $5,000{\mu}g$/plate에서 돌연변이 수는 음성 대조군과 유의차가 없었다. Chinese hamster lung(CHL) 세포를 이용한 구조적, 숫적 염색체 이상시험결과 직접법과 대사활성화법의 경우 methiozolin을 투여한 모든 군(80, 40, $20{\mu}g$/mL)의 세포에서 염색체 이상이 관찰되지 않았다. ICR 마우스를 이용한 소핵시험에서는 methiozolin의 복강투여가 골수세포에서 다염성 적혈구(polychromatic erythrocytes) 및 소핵(micronucleous)을 가진 다염성 적혈구의 출현율을 조사하였는데, 모든 농도(1,500, 1,000, 500 mg/kg)에서 음성대조군과 유의한 차이가 나타나지 않아 소핵을 유발하는 독성이 없는 것으로 판단된다. 이상의 결과로부터 제초제인 methiozolin은 세균, 세포 및 동물체내에서 유전독성을 유발하지 않는 물질로 사료된다.

감마선 조사 계란의 유전독성학적 안전성을 평가하기 위하여Escherchia coli PQ37 균주를 이용한 SOS chromotest, Chinese hamster lung cell을 이용한 염색체 이상 시험의 in vivo 시험과in vivo 시험으로 마우스를 이용한 소핵시험을 실시하였다. 대사활성계 적용 및 미적용의 in vitro의 모든 시험에서 음성대조군과 통계학적으로 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 또한in vivo 시험에서도 시험물질을 투여한 모든 투여군에서 음성대조군에 비해 통계학적으로 유의적인 독성을 나타내지 않았다. 따라서 감마선 조사된 난백 및 난황은 본 시험조건하에서 직접변이원이나 간접변이원으로 작용하지 않는 것으로 사료된다.

We observed the frequency of chromosome aberrations induced by UVB irradiations, and the suppressing effect of tannic acid on chromosome aberrations induced by UVB irradiations in CHL cells, which is a phenolic compound, a hydrolysate of tannin and a components of green tea. UVB doses used for the frequency of chromosome aberrations were from 0.2 to 1.6 KJ/m$^2$ and tannic acid concentrations were from 1.16 $\mu$g/ml to 37.50 $\mu$g/ml. For the observation of suppressing effect of tannic acid on UVB-induced chromosome aberrations, UVB dose was 1.6 KJ/m$^2$ and tannic acid concentrations were 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 $\mu$g/ml. In our study, tannic acid was treated for 24 hours in CHL, cells after UVB irradiation without S9 mix or for 6 hours with S9 mix. From this study, we obtained the following results : (1) The frequency of chromosome aberrations UVB induced were dose-dependently increased. (2) The tannic acid did not induce chromosome aberrations in cultured Chinese hamster cells. (3) UVB-induced chromosome aberrations were suppressed by tannic acid at every concentration from 1.0 $\mu$g/ml to 4.0 $\mu$g/ml with or without metabolic activation. These results suggest that the tannic acid acts as an inhibitor to UVB-induced clastogenicity of the cultured cell.

We developed a sensitive, nested reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) to detect Hantaan, Seoul, Belgrade, Puumala and Sin Nombre viruses in animal tissues. Total RNA was extracted from blood, lung or kidney samples of experimentally-infected hamsters by using the guanidine isothiocyanate buffer-acid phenol-chloroform method. Genus-reactive outer primers were derived from the consensus region of the G1 gene sequences of several hantaviruses. Serotype-specific primers were selected within the region amplified by the outer primers. To examine the sensitivity and specificity of the test, we diluted known quantities of Hantaan, Seoul, Belgrade, Puumala and Sin Nombre viruses in human or hamster immune sera before performing the nested RT-PCR. We could detect as little as 1 pfu of virus, even in the presence of high-titer neutralizing antibodies, and the serotype-specific primers amplified only homologous serotype viruses. RT-PCR with these primers demonstrated virus in the blood of experimentally-infected hamsters as early as four days to as late as 30 days after infection. A comparison of a standard immunofluorescent antibody screening test (IFAT) to nested RT-PCR with RNA extracted from lung or kidney tissues of the hamsters, demonstrated that RT-PCR to be more sensitive for identifying viruses in these tissues.

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.

The results of chromosome aberration test in mammalian cells in culture (Chinese hamster lung fibroblast cells) showed no induction of structural and numerical aberrations by YH1226, a cephalosporin antibiotic regardless of metabolic activation, while positive control group (mitomycin C and benzo(a)pyrene) showed structural chromosome aberrations of 25% and 10%, respectively. The in vivo induction of micronuclei was measured in polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow of male ddY mouse given YH1226 at 500, 250, 125 mg/kg by i.p. once. After 24 hours, animals were sacrificed and evaluated for the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in whole erythrocytes. Although a positive response for induction of micronuclei in animals treated with mitomycin C demonstrated the sensitivity of the test system for detection of a chemical clastogen, YH1226 did not induce microunclei in bone marrow of ddY male mice.

The human ${\beta}$$_2$-adrenergic receptor (h${\beta}$$_2$AR) contains seven clusters of hydrophobic amino acids suggestive of membrane-spanning domains and its gene is intronless. The genomic gene encoding h${\beta}$$_2$AR has been isolated by polymerase chain reaction. To express h${\beta}$$_2$AR in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a modified h${\beta}$$_2$AR gene was fused to signal peptide sequence of Killer toxin gene from Kluyveromyces lactics. This fusion gene was expressed under the galactose-inducible GAL10 promoter. The ligand binding experiments showed that the functional h${\beta}$$_2$AR was expressed at a concentration three times as much as that found in Hamster lung.

To assess the genotoxicity of AS6, several classical toxicological tests were performed. In Ames test, AS6 did not show any transformation of revertant with or without S-9 metabolic activating system, indicating the lack of mutagenic effect of the compound. To assess clastogenic effect, in vivo micronucleus and in vitro chromosomal aberration assays were performed using male ICR mice and Chinese hamster lung (CHL) fibroblast cells, respectively. Chromosomal aberration was not induced regardless of the presence of S-9 metabolic activating system. In addition, AS6 did not cause any increase in the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes at any of the dose levels, suggesting little clastogenicity in vitro or in vivo. Taken together, these results demonstrate that AS-6 has no mutagenic effect in our test system.

The potential genotoxicity of methylsulfonylmethane, a crystalline organic sulfur, derived from chemically modified lignin from plants was evaluated using in vitro and in vivo assays. In the bacterial reverse mutation test using Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, and TA1538, methylsulfonylmethane did not induce any significant increase of His' revertants. In the in vitro chromosome aberration test using Chinese Hamster Lung (CHL) cells, no aberration effects were seen. In the in vivo evaluation using a micronucleus test, negative results were obtained. Accordingly, the results indicated that methylsulfonylmethane is not genotoxic and its use is unlikely to present a potential hazard.
