刚果红,一种源自联苯胺的偶氮染料,以及2-偶氮氧基芴,一种2-氨基芴的衍生物,在大鼠肠道细菌悬浮液中过夜培养时被还原。高效液相色谱和紫外光谱分析验证了刚果红培养物提取物中存在联苯胺。... 刚果红培养物提取物在存在后线粒体活化系统的情况下,对鼠伤寒沙门氏菌TA1538具有诱变性,但刚果红在没有这种还原预处理的情况下并不具有诱变性。... 通过使用盲肠细菌的还原预处理,可以扩大 Ames 测试在筛选潜在诱变剂方面的实用性。
Congo red, an azo dye derived from benzidine, and 2-azoxyfluorene, a derivative of 2-aminofluorene, were reduced during overnight incubation with a suspension of rat intestinal bacteria. HPLC and uv spectral analysis verified the presence of benzidine in the extracts of the Congo red incubations. ... Extracts of the Congo red incubations were mutagenic toward Salmonella typhimurium TA1538 in the presence of post-mitochondrial activating system, but Congo red was not mutagenic without this reductive pretreatment. ... The utility of the Ames test in screening for potential mutagens may be expanded by a reductive pretreatment utilizing cecal bacteria.
