Characteristics of major mutagenicity of instant coffee. 1985

Y Fujita, and K Wakabayashi, and M Nagao, and T Sugimura

Detailed quantitative studies on the mutagenicity of methylglyoxal showed that its contribution to the total mutagenicity of instant coffee on S. typhimurium TA100 was minor although we reported previously (Kasai et al., 1982) that its contribution to the mutagenicity of freshly brewed coffee was about 50%. Cysteine suppressed the mutagenicity of methylglyoxal and of methylglyoxal when added to instant coffee, but did not affect the mutagenicity of coffee itself. Catalase suppressed most of the mutagenicity of coffee, but not that of methylglyoxal or of methylglyoxal added to coffee.

D009153 Mutagens Chemical agents that increase the rate of genetic mutation by interfering with the function of nucleic acids. A clastogen is a specific mutagen that causes breaks in chromosomes. Clastogen,Clastogens,Genotoxin,Genotoxins,Mutagen
D011765 Pyruvaldehyde An organic compound used often as a reagent in organic synthesis, as a flavoring agent, and in tanning. It has been demonstrated as an intermediate in the metabolism of acetone and its derivatives in isolated cell preparations, in various culture media, and in vivo in certain animals. Acetylformaldehyde,Methylglyoxal,Oxopropanal,Pyruvic Aldehyde,Aldehyde, Pyruvic
D002374 Catalase An oxidoreductase that catalyzes the conversion of HYDROGEN PEROXIDE to water and oxygen. It is present in many animal cells. A deficiency of this enzyme results in ACATALASIA. Catalase A,Catalase T,Manganese Catalase,Mn Catalase
