摘要:
AbstractBy an introduction of sodium dodecylsulfate for cell lysis and immunomicroplate for mass assay, the modified SOS microplate assay method was established and applied for the evaluation of genotoxicity of mycotoxins and fungal cultures. Among 20 mycotoxins, the carcinogenic dihydrobisfuranoids such as aflatoxin B1, sterigmatocystin, and versicolorin A were positive in the presence of the activation system. While, the carcinogenic anthraquinones and lactones such as luteoskyrin, rugulosin, ochratoxin A, patulin, and citrinin were negative. The survey on genotoxic fungi revealed that, among 15 fungal isolatesAspergillus versicolor, Emericella acristata, and others were positive. Additional survey on 265 fungal isolates have revealed that variousAspergillusgenera such asA. flavus, A. parasiticus, A. ustus, A. nidulans, and others were positive for SOS induction, along with several isolates ofFusarium moniliforme. The chemical analysis revealed that the dihydrobisfuranoids such as aflatoxin B1, and sterigmatocystin were the major genotoxic metabolites of severalAspergillusspecies. The SOS microplate assay system is a simple and rapid procedure for the mass screening of genotoxic fungi, particularly of the dihydrobisfuranoids‐producing strains. © 1992 Wiley‐Liss,
