Notes:
Three short-term bioassays were employed to assess the clastogenic and mutagenic activities of Maillard reaction sugar-amino acid solutions at initial pH values of 7 and 10. All of the Maillard reaction solutions with no S9 activation induced significant increases in chromosome aberrations in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Mitotic recombination and mutation occurred in Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain D5 cells when exposed to all Maillard reaction solutions. When Salmonella typhimurium TA100 cells were treated with Maillard reaction compounds, induction of revertants to histidine prototrophy occurred. Mutagen concentration in the browning reaction solution was dependent on initial pH.
