Antimutagenicity of some cultured and wild vegetables of Tohoku region on Trp-P2 induced mutagenicity of Salmonella typhimurium TA98

摘要

Antimutagenicity of dimethylsulfoxide extracts from cultured and wild vegetables of Tohoku region on the Trp-P2 induced mutagenicity to Salmonella typhimurium TA98 was examined. Each preparation shows its characteristic antimutagenicity against the mutagenicity of Trp-P2. Swertia herb, hops, indigo plant leaves, mulberry root, and perilla seeds had strong antimutagenicity.
