Abstract

|
|
The inhibitory effects of methanol extracts from wild mushrooms on mutagenicity induced by benzo(a)pyrene (B(a)P) and N-methyl-N-nitro- nitrosoguanidine(MNNG) were investigated using Salmonella typhimurium reversion assay. In Ames test, The methanol extracts of 11 mushrooms did not show any mutagenicity but The methanol extracts of Lactarius piperatus, Naematoloma fasciculare and Innotus xeranticus showed 40∼80% of inhibitory effect on the mutagenicity induced by indirect mutagen of B(a)P and also showed 60∼80% of antimutagenic activity toward MNNG irrespective of their concentrations.
