Micronucleus Test of Polycan™, β-Glucan Originated from Aureobasidium, in Bone Marrow Cells of Male ICR Mice

In this research the genotoxic effect of Polycan™ β-glucans originated from Aureobasidium pullulans SM-2001, was evaluated using the mouse micronucleus test. Polycan™ was administered once a day for 2 days by oral gavage to male ICR mice at doses of 1000, 500 and 250 mg/kg. Cyclophosphamide was used...

description In this research the genotoxic effect of Polycan™ β-glucans originated from Aureobasidium pullulans SM-2001, was evaluated using the mouse micronucleus test. Polycan™ was administered once a day for 2 days by oral gavage to male ICR mice at doses of 1000, 500 and 250 mg/kg. Cyclophosphamide was used as a known genotoxic agent in a positive control group. The appearance of a micronucleus is used as an index for genotoxic potential. The results obtained indicated that Polycan™ shows no genotoxicity effect up to 1000 mg/kg dosing levels. In addition, it is also considered that there were no problems from cytotoxicity of Polycan™ tested in this study because the polychromatic erythrocyte ratio was detected as > 0.47 in all tested groups.
