Abstract
When an aqueous homogenate of boiled rice was treated with nitrous acid at pH 3, direct-acting mutagens were formed. The presence of the mutagens was demonstrated by isolating the mutagenic fractions through blue-rayon adsorption, a method used to extract polycyclic compounds, and subsequent high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The mutagens were active in Salmonella typhimurium TA100 and TA98 without metabolic activation. Several different mutagens were formed, as judged from the HPLC profile.Entities:
