Abstract

Oxidized lipids are suspected as being mutagenic, the mutagenicity being associated in concept with carcinogenicity as well. However, although mutagenic responses for more highly oxidized lipid degradation products have been obtained in a variety of bioassays, convincing demonstration of mutagenicity of early formed products of lipid oxidation has not been readily achieved. In many of the studies conducted todate mutagenicity has been assessed using test strains of Salmonella typhimurium in the Ames test, the bioassay emphasized in the present report.
