In vitro activation assays with hepatic S9 preparation from wild and laboratory reared woodchucks in the Salmonella mutagenicity test.

Abstract:

:The Salmonella mutagenicity assay was utilized to compare hepatic S9 fractions derived from wild and laboratory reared woodchucks (Marmota monax). Two promutagens, 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracence (DMBA) and 2-amino-fluorene (AF) were tested at 5 concentrations with the tester strains TA98 and TA100, against 2 levels of S9 fraction. AF produced similar number of revertants with the S9 fraction from wild and laboratory-reared animals. DMBA produced 2-4 times more revertant colonies at 50 microliter S9/plate with wild woodchuck S9 than with S9 from the laboratory-reared animals with both tester strains. It was concluded that natural inducers in the wild woodchuck diet may have contributed to the increased reversion frequency over laboratory reared woodchucks. Dose-response parameters for the activation of DMBA by S9 fraction from woodchucks and rats were compared with TA100. Woodchuck S9 had 3-40 more revertants/nmol and a 100-fold lower threshold of response than S9 from Aroclor 1254-induced rats.
