Structure of an antimutagen from Carmona retusa leaves.

Abstract:

:An antimutagenic compound was isolated from the leaves of Carmona retusa (Vahl) Masam. Its structure has been elucidated by spectral analysis to be 4-hydroxy-7,8,11,12,15,7',8',11',12',15'-decahydro-beta, psi-carotene. The results of the Micronucleus Test, an in vivo method, showed that the isolated antimutagenic compound reduced by approximately 68.4% the number of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes induced by tetracycline, a known mutagen.
