Table 4

Anti-mutagenic potential of -spiked fractions obtained from thin layer chromatography fractionation of fraction RB21 ( = 0.78–1.00) from TLC 2 (averageb TA100 and TA98 revertants/plate, with S9).

aAFB1 (used as positive control) tested at 500 ng/plate induced 605 ± 33 and 1689 ± 78 revertants/plate for TA98 and TA100, respectively. Spontaneous revertants were and for TA98 and TA100, respectively.
bValues are means of three replicates ± SEM.
cExtracts were diluted and spiked with enough toxin to yield 500 ng of pure AFB1/plate.
