[Mutation frequency test for isepamicin (HAPA-B)]. 1986

K Oyaide, and A Sono, and Y Kobayashi, and H Yamamoto

Mutation frequency tests for isepamicin (HAPA-B), a new aminoglycoside antibiotic, were carried out using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA98, TA100, TA1535 and Escherichia coli WP2uvrA. After a 30-minute exposure of bacterial cells at 37 degrees C to HAPA-B in a buffer solution, the cells were washed twice with a buffer solution to minimize the cytotoxicity of the drug. Then washed cells were inoculated on minimum glucose agar plates to determine mutation frequency. The results should no significant increase in mutation frequency with increasing HAPA-B concentration; suggesting that the drug has no mutagenicity detectable by this test system.

D009154	Mutation	Any detectable and heritable change in the genetic material that causes a change in the GENOTYPE and which is transmitted to daughter cells and to succeeding generations.	Mutations
D004926	Escherichia coli	A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc.	Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
