15 hazardous industrial waste samples were evaluated for mutagenicity in the Salmonella plate-incorporation assay using strains TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of Aroclor 1254-induced rat liver S9. Dichloromethane/methanol extracts of the crude wastes were also evaluated. 7 of the crude wastes were mutagenic, but only 2 of the extracts of these 7 wastes were mutagenic; extracts of 2 additional wastes also were mutagenic. In addition, 10 of the crude wastes were administered by gavage to F-344 rats, and 24-h urine samples were collected. Of the 10 raw urines evaluated, 3 were mutagenic in strain TA98 in the presence of S9 and beta-glucuronidase. The 3 crude wastes that produced these 3 mutagenic urines were, themselves, mutagenic. Adequate volumes of 6 of the 10 raw urines were available for extraction/concentration. These 6 urines were incubated with beta-glucuronidase and eluted through Sep-Pak C18 columns; the methanol eluates of 3 of the urines were mutagenic, and these were the same 3 whose raw urines also were mutagenic. In general, the C18/methanol extraction procedure reduced the cytotoxicity and increased the mutagenic potency of the urines. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the mutagenicity of urine from rodents exposed to hazardous wastes. Based on the present results, the use of only strain TA98 in the presence of S9 might be adequate for general screening of hazardous wastes or waste extracts for genotoxicity. The urinary mutagenesis assay does not appear to be a useful adjunct to the Salmonella assay for screening hazardous wastes. The problems associated with chemically fractionating diverse types of hazardous wastes for bioassay are also discussed. 相似文献

A methanol extract of Dictamni Radicis Cortex exhibited a mutagenic effect on Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 with S9 mix. Two mutagenic compounds in Dictamni Radicis Cortex were isolated on a Sephadex LH 20 column and silica gel column chromatography and by preparative TLC. These were identified as dictamnine and gamma-fagarine by UV, EI-Mass, 1H-NMR. Dictamnine and gamma-fagarine were mutagenic in strain TA100 and TA98 with S9 mix. The dose-response curves were linear in the range 10-40 micrograms. Dictamnine and gamma-fagarine had specific activities (His+/microgram) of about 50-70 revertant colonies in strain TA100, while in strain TA98 there were about 30-50 revertant colonies. 相似文献

Prostaglandin H synthase (PHS) is widely distributed in mammalian tissues and has the ability to oxidize a variety of mutagens and carcinogens. It may therefore play a key role in the metabolic activation of xenobiotics. The present study documents that highly purified PHS can be used in conjunction with 5-phenyl-4-pentenyl-1-hydroperoxide (PPHP), a relatively stable and non-mutagenic hydroperoxide substrate, for the metabolic activation of aromatic amines to mutagenic derivatives that can be detected in short-term Salmonella typhimurium mutagenesis assays. The PHS-based activation system alone was not mutagenic for these tester strains, nor were the test compounds significantly toxic for the bacteria over the concentration range tested. When used in conjunction with Salmonella strains TA98 and TA100 in a modified Ames assay, this system should prove useful for screening of a wide range of compounds for metabolic activation by this mammalian peroxidase. The potential broad utility of this purified PHS-dependent metabolic activation system was investigated by evaluating the activation of 2-amino-3-methylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (IQ) and 2-amino-3,4-dimethylimidazo[4,5-f]quinoline (MeIQ), which are representative of a group of mutagenic and carcinogenic heterocyclic arylamines to which humans are exposed via their diet. Both IQ and MeIQ were activated by PHS to potent mutagens and confirm the utility of the PPHP/PHS system for the activation of premutagens. Whereas the extent of activation of aromatic amines by S9-based systems is significantly greater than for the PHS activation system described herein, PHS may play a significant role in target tissues in which it is present at significantly greater levels than P450 isoenzymes. Moreover, it is likely that the substrate specificity of PHS differs sufficiently from that of P450 isoenzymes so that PHS may activate some compounds that are not efficiently activated by mixed-function oxidase based systems. 相似文献

Mutagenicity of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAC) identified in source emissions and ambient air 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Several polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAC) including nitrated and oxygenated derivatives of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) were tested for mutagenic activity in the Salmonella/microsome assay. Among the compounds tested the isomer mix of nitro-1-hydroxypyrenes showed the highest direct mutagenic response in both the Salmonella strain TA98 and TA100 (1251 revertants/micrograms and 463 revertants/micrograms, respectively). The direct-acting mutagenicity of the nitro-1-hydroxypyrene isomer mix was dependent upon reduction of the nitro function as evidenced by the decrease in activity observed with the nitroreductase-deficient and arylhydroxylamine esterifying-deficient tester strains. The oxygenated derivatives of PAH containing aldehyde or keto groups showed weak or no mutagenic responses. In most cases addition of S9 was essential for any mutagenic activity and the strain TA100 was more sensitive than the strain TA98. Within this group, 7H-dibenzo[c,g]fluoren-7-one showed the highest mutagenic effect; 7 and 22 revertants/micrograms using the strains TA98 and TA100, respectively. 相似文献

The fried food mutagens IQ, MeIQ, Glu-P-1 and Trp-P-2 were treated with nitrite at pH 3.0 for 1 h at 37 degrees C. The resulting reaction mixtures were tested for mutagenicity towards Salmonella typhimurium TA97, TA98, TA100 and TA1535. Glu-P-1 and Trp-P-2 were readily converted to weak or non-mutagenic deaminated compounds, whereas IQ and MeIQ were converted to extremely strong mutagenic derivatives in both the presence and the absence of rat liver S9 mix. The mutagenicity of MeIQ in TA98 was enhanced by nitrite up to 3-fold, while that of nitrosated MeIQ was further enhanced by S9 mix up to 15-fold. The nitrosation products of MeIQ were resolved into 7 bands by TLC on silica gel plate. Bands I, III, V and VI were highly mutagenic to both TA98 and TA100. The experimental results suggest that the non-enzymatic formation of direct-acting mutagens from indirect-acting mutagens such as IQ or MeIQ might be physiologically important, especially with regard to the etiology of human gastrointestinal tract tumors. 相似文献

Mutagenic sensitivity of the Salmonella/arabinose-resistant (Arar) assay system using the tester strain SV50 was evaluated with 26 compounds both by the preincubation and the standard plate incorporation tests. The mutagenic activity of all 26 compounds was also tested with TA98 and/or TA100 of the Ames Salmonella/microsome assay system. The results indicate that 13 and 10 of 26 compounds were mutagenic and nonmutagenic, respectively, in both assay systems. PR toxin and hydrogen peroxide were mutagenic only in the Arar assay, while 2-nitrofluorene was mutagenic only in the Ames assay. The results also show that the mutagenic response of SV50 to 13 of 15 mutagenic compounds was much higher (2.1–154-fold) if the compounds were tested with the preincubation rather than the plate incorporation test. The mutagenic activity of 4 compounds (diethyl sulfate, niridazole, PR toxin and hydrogen peroxide) in the Arar assay was detected only with the preincubation test.Since the Arar assay using tester strain SV50 has similar mutagenic sensitivity as the Ames assay to chemicals with different modes of action and since it requires only one tester strain, we find this assay system to be useful for screening environmental mutagens. Based on the effectiveness of the preincubation test in this study, it is recommended that the preincubation test instead of the plate incorporation test be used for the Arar assay system with tester strain SV50. 相似文献

Mutagenicity of adsorbates to a copper-phthalocyanine derivative recovered from municipal river water 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Blue cotton, bearing a covalently bound copper-phthalocyanine derivative capable of adsorbing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) over 3 rings, was applied to recover mutagens from the Katsura River which is a tributary of the Yodo River. The Ames Salmonella/microsome assay with TA98 and TA100 of the blue cotton concentrate recovered from the river water demonstrated indirect mutagenicity toward TA98. The subfractions separated by Sephadex G-25 gel chromatography also showed direct mutagenicity in strains YG1021 and YG1024, the nitroreductase- and O-acetyltransferase-overproducing derivatives of TA98; this activity was greatly increased by the addition of S9 mix, especially in YG1024. However, these subfractions were less mutagenic with TA98NR or TA98/1,8-DNP6, regardless of whether S9 mix was present or not. The behaviors of these mutagenic activities therefore suggested that frameshift mutagens of both directly mutagenic nitroarenes and indirectly mutagenic aminoarenes were present in the blue cotton concentrate from the river water. 相似文献

Carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and nitropolycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (nitro-PAHs) have been identified in airborne particulate organic matter extracts. The pollutant sources were generally contributed by motor vehicles and industrial activity. Massive quantities of urban solid wastes, containing plastic materials such as PVC, PET, PS, and PE, burnt in the open air in local garbage dumps are frequently found in developing countries. In this study, the smog particulates from the combustion of these synthetic polymers were produced in a laboratory combustion chamber. The mutagenicity of acetone extracts from the smog particulates was evaluated with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100 in the presence and absence of S9 mix. Four samples in TA98 exhibited higher mutagenicity than those in TA100. The greatest mutagenicity was observed from the extracts of particulates from combustion of PVC followed by that of PS, PET, and PE. To determine the major mutagenic compounds in these samples, mutagens were partially purified through TLC and their mutagenicity was monitored with TA98. 1-NP and DNPs in the above samples were also determined by HPLC. The amounts of 1-NP and DNPs generally corresponded with their mutagenicity. Higher levels of 1-NP and DNPS from the combustion of PVC, PET, and PS. the combustion of synthetic polymer wastes might be responsible for the presence of high levels of 1-NP and DNPs in Taiwan urban air. 相似文献

43 heteropolycyclic compounds belonging to a homologous series were investigated for mutagenicity. The results are compared with carcinogenicity data obtained with the same batches of compounds under conditions identical for all of them. Mutagenicity was tested in the Ames test with Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1537 and TA100 in the presence and absence of liver 10 000 g supernatant from rats treated with Aroclor 1254. Carcinogenicity was tested by injection of the compounds into subcutaneous tissue of XVIInc/Z mice. 18 test compounds showed carcinogenic activity, some strongly, others only weakly. Of these, 17 were detected as mutagens: one weak carcinogen did not revert the Salmonella strains. No quantitative correlation was observed between the extents of the mutagenic and the carcinogenic effects. Of the 25 substances that did not produce tumours, 13 showed mutagenicity (12 in the presence, 2 in the absence, of the liver homogenate). The mutagenic effects of these compounds were quantitatively similar to those of the compounds that produced tumours. The most sensitive strain of Salmonella typhimurium was TA100. It detected all 30 mutagens. TA98 was mutated by 25 compounds, TA1537 by 16 compounds. No mutagenic effects were seen with TA1535. Possible reasons for the high percentage of apparently "false positives" in the Ames test and the lack of a quantitative correlation between the potency of the mutagenic and carcinogenic effects are discussed. It is suggested that the complexity of the metabolism of these heterocyclic compounds may lead to critical differences in metabolism in mouse subcutaneous tissue in vivo and in liver homogenates from rats treated with Aroclor. Therefore the present study will be extended to life-long oral and intrahepatic carcinogenicity tests leading to a higher proportion of metabolism in the liver. 相似文献

Activation of promutagenic chemicals by Streptomyces griseus containing cytochrome P-450soy 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Streptomyces griseus cells containing cytochrome P-450soy oxidize a diverse array of xenobiotic compounds. This metabolic capability was exploited for activation of promutagenic chemicals such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, aromatic amines and small aliphatics in a modified Salmonella/Ames plate incorporation assay using tester strains TA98 and TA1538. In this assay promutagens such as 3,3'-dimethylbenzidine, 3,3'-dimethoxybenzidine, benzidine, 2-acetylaminofluorene, 2-aminoanthracene, 2,4-diaminotoluene, 4-aminobiphenyl, benzo(a)pyrene, chloropicrin and N-nitrosodimethylamine were oxidized to mutagenic metabolites by S. griseus intact cells which mutated Salmonella tester strains (TA98 and TA1538). S. griseus failed to activate 7,12-dimethylbenzanthracene and 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline. In parallel tests performed with rat liver homogenate (S9), N-nitrosodimethylamine was not activated. 相似文献

Ticlopidine hydrochloride, 5-(o-chlorobenzyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrothieno[3,2-c]pyridine hydrochloride, a platelet aggregation inhibitor, was tested for mutagenic activity in the Ames Salmonella/mammalian microsome test. Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA1535, TA1537 and TA1538 were employed. Two of these strains (TA1535 and TA100) are sensitive to base-pair substitution mutagens, and the remaining 3 are sensitive to frame-shift mutagens. There was no evidence that ticlopidine hydrochloride had any mutagenic activity either in the presence or absence of a liver microsomal supplement. 相似文献

A variety of nitro-substituted phenyl alkyl/aryl thioethers and nitroso-substituted phenyl alkyl/aryl thioethers have been synthesized and tested for their mutagenicity towards Salmonella typhimurium strain TA100, TA98, TA98NR and TA98/1,8-DNP(6) in the absence of S9 mix. The relative order of mutagenicity in TA98 and TA100 among p-nitrophenyl thioethers having alkyl or aryl substituents is allyl>phenyl>benzyl>butyl>propyl>ethyl>methyl. Compounds having an alkyl chain C(6) to C(12) were found to be non-mutagenic. Among the various positional isomers (ortho, meta and para) of nitro-substituted diphenyl thioethers only the compounds having the -NO(2) function at the para position is mutagenic, whereas compounds having a -NO(2) function at ortho and meta are non-mutagenic. However, the reduced intermediate, ortho-nitroso derivative was found to be mutagenic in all the four strains but the meta-nitroso derivative was found to be non-mutagenic. All mutagens were found to be non-mutagenic when tested in nitroreductase deficient strain TA98NR, whereas their nitroso intermediates are found to be mutagenic. A substantial fall in the mutagenic activity is observed when some mutagens are tested in O-acetyltransferase deficient strain TA98/1,8-DNP(6). 相似文献

Benzoyl chloride and 53 commercially available aromatic heterocyclic and aliphatic nitro compounds were tested for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and TA100. 34 of 53 nitro compounds (64%) were mutagenic, 4 in TA100 only, 15 in TA98 only, and 15 in both strains. 13 of the heterocyclic derivatives of pyridine, indole, indazole, quinoline, and benzimidazole were mutagenic. 21 of 34 mutagenic nitro compounds were bactericidal. Nitromethane was the only aliphatic tested and was not mutagenic. Benzoyl chloride, a human carcinogen, was mutagenic for TA98. 相似文献

Four hexavalent and two trivalent chromium compounds were tested for toxicity and mutagenicity by means of the Salmonella typhimurium/mammalian-microsome test. All hexavalent compounds yielded a complete inhibition of bacterial growth at doses of 400 to 800 mug/plate, a significant increase of his(+) revertant colonies at doses ranging from 10 to 200 mug, and no effect at doses of less than 10 mug. The distinctive sensitivity of the four Salmonella strains tested (TA1535, TA1537, TA98, and TA100) suggested that hexavalent chromium directly interacts with bacterial deoxyribonucleic acid by causing both frameshift mutations and basepair substitutions. The latter mutations, which are prevalent, are amplified by an error-prone recombinational repair of the damaged deoxyribonucleic acid. On the average, 1 mumol of hexavalent chromium yielded approximately 500 revertants of the TA100 strain, irrespective of the compound tested (sodium dichromate, calcium chromate, potassium chromate, or chromic acid). The mutagenic potency of the hexavalent metal was not enhanced by adding the microsomal fraction of rat hepatocytes, induced either with sodium barbital or with Aroclor 1254. The two trivalent compounds (chromium potassium sulfate and chromic chloride), with or without the microsomal fraction, were neither toxic nor mutagenic for the bacterial tester strains. 相似文献

Sediments in estuaries are of important environmental concern because they may act as pollution sinks and sources to the overlying water body. These sediments can be accumulated by benthic organisms. This study assessed the mutagenic potential of sediment extracts from the Yangtze River estuary by using the Ames fluctuation assay with the Salmonella typhimurium his (−) strain TA98 (frameshift mutagen indicator) and TA100 (baseshift mutagen indicator). Most of the sediment samples were mutagenic to the strain TA98, regardless of the presence or absence of exogenous metabolic activation (S9 induction by β-naphthoflavone/phenobarbital). However, none of the samples were mutagenic to the strain TA100. Thus, the mutagenicity pattern was mainly frameshift mutation, and the responsible toxicants were both direct (without S9 mix) and indirect (with S9 mix) mutagens. The mutagenicity of the sediment extracts increased when S9 was added. Chemical analysis showed a poor correlation between the content of priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and the detected mutagenicity in each sample. The concept of effect-directed analysis was used to analyze possible compounds responsible for the detected mutagenic effects. With regard to the mutagenicity of sediment fractions, non-polar compounds as well as weakly and moderately polar compounds played a main role. Further investigations should be conducted to identify the responsible components. 相似文献

The mutagenic activity of several aromatic amines and aromatic nitro compounds related to 4,4'-methylenedianiline towards Salmonella typhymurium tester strains TA100 and TA98 was evaluated. The heteroatomic analogs of 4,4'-methylenedianiline which include aminophenyl and nitrophenyl ethers, sulfides and disulfides were assayed in the presence of rat-liver homogenate. The relative mutagenic response of these analogs indicated the following order of activity, --S-- greater than --O-- greater than --CH2--CH2-- greater than or equal to --S--S--. In both tester strains 4-aminophenylsulfone was inactive with and without microsomal activation. The p-nitrophenyl ethers, sulfides and disulfides were relatively strong mutagens without microsomal activation towards TA100. While 4-nitrophenyldisulfide was found to possess significantly different mutagenic activity than 4-nitrothiophenol in TA98, 4-AMINOPHENYl disulfide has similar mutagenic properties to 4-aminothiophenol in both tester straains TA100 and TA98. 相似文献

16 heterocyclic nitrogen mustards (ICR compounds), which were synthesized for use as possible antitumor agents by Creech and coworkers, were tested for mutagenicity in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA1535, TA1536, TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100. The compounds were incorporated into the top agar at 5 doses: 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5 and 10 micrograms/plate. All of the compounds were negative in TA1535 except ICR 449, which was positive in all 6 strains. The other 15 compounds were positive in the remaining strains with the following exceptions: ICR 371 and 355 were negative in TA100; ICR 445 was negative in TA98 and TA100; and ICR 360 was negative in TA1537, TA1538, TA98 and TA100. Good qualitative agreement was observed between the mutagenic and antitumor activities of the 16 compounds, and between the mutagenic and carcinogenic activities of the 5 compounds that have been tested for carcinogenicity by Peck and coworkers. However, no significant correlation was found between mutagenic potency in Salmonella and antitumor potency in mice for the 16 compounds. Also, for the 5 compounds that have been tested for carcinogenicity, no significant correlation was found between their mutagenic potency in Salmonella and their carcinogenic potency in mice. In Salmonella, the secondary (2 degrees) amines generally were more mutagenic than their tertiary (3 degrees) amine homologs, although the opposite result has been reported in certain eukaryotes. Relationships between structures and potencies for the different nuclei of the 16 ICR compounds are discussed, as are similarities and differences in strain sensitivities. We conclude that the Salmonella his reversion test is not a good predictor of the antitumor and carcinogenic potencies of these ICR compounds. 相似文献

Photomutagens (chemicals that enhance the mutagenicity of non-ionizing radiation) have been detected in experimental coal- and oil shale-derived synthetic fuel samples using Salmonella typhimurium strain TA98 and fluorescent light. In this study, photomutagenic activity was measured among distillation and chemical class fractions from a blend of direct coal liquefaction process materials. Photomutagenicity increased with increasing boiling point and was concentrated in fractions enriched in neutral polycyclic aromatic compounds (neutral PACs). The photomutagenic activities of the materials tested correlate well with the previously reported tumorigenic activities of the same samples on mouse skin, but correlate poorly with the previously reported mutagenic activities of the same samples in the Salmonella/mammalian-microsome test (using strain TA98), in which neutral PAC-enriched fractions were not active. These data suggest that relatively high boiling neutral PACs are important chemical photomutagens in synthetic fuels and suggest the potential use of the photomutation assay as an improved, relatively simple, inexpensive and short-term bioassay for detecting carcinogens as mutagens in complex mixtures such as synthetic fuels. 相似文献

Fine particles can be active carriers of toxic compounds into the alveoli of the lungs. Among these compounds are numerous mutagens and carcinogens. The direct mutagenicity per unit mass of fine particulate matter (PM) is significantly higher than that of coarse particles, especially in urban areas. In this study, the mutagenic properties of urban PM2.5 and PM10 were evaluated, and the role of nitro-compounds was estimated. PM2.5 and PM10 samplings, and measurements of NOx and some PAHs were performed daily in 2007 in Turin, following a consolidated in vitro test - the Salmonella mutagenicity assay - conducted with organic extracts of PM2.5 and PM10. The mutagenic properties were assessed for each month of sampling with Salmonella typhimurium strain TA98 and TA98-derived strains: a nitroreductase-deficient mutant strain (TA98NR) and an additional nitroreductase-producing plasmid strain (YG1021). The annual measured mean levels of PM2.5 and PM10 were 34±20 and 48±18μg/m(3). The PM2.5/PM10 ratio ranged from 0.36 to 0.89. The Salmonella assay showed higher mutagenicity in autumn/winter (20±15 TA98NR; 54±39 TA98; 173±161 YG1021 net revertants/m(3)) compared with spring/summer (2±2 TA98NR; 7±8 TA98; 24±27 YG1021 net revertants/m(3)) (p<0.01). There are also statistically significant seasonal differences in the gravimetric analysis data. The number of TA98 net revertants per μg of PM2.5 is 6.5 times greater than per μg PM10. Moreover, the bioassay results showed an amplified response in the YG1021 strain and a reduced response in the TA98NR strain. The net revertant ratio TA98NR/YG1021 is 11±4 for organic extracts of PM2.5 and 13±6 for extracts of PM10 (p<0.01). There is a significant correlation between the NOx and PAH concentrations. These findings illustrate the relevant role of nitro compounds, and they underline the priority in improving preventive measures to reduce air pollution by nitrated molecules. 相似文献
