Antimutagenicity of fruit extracts on trp-p2 induced mutagenicity of Salmonella typhimurium TA98

摘要

Antimutagenicity of dimethylsulfoxiside extracts from 63 fruit samples, including peaches, pears, apples, grapes, and persimmons on the Trp-P2 induced mutagenicity to Salmonella typhimurium TA98 was examined. Each preparation showed its characteristic antimutagenicity against the mutagenicity of Trp-P2. Persimmon leaf extracts had very high antimutagenicities among the specimens tested.
