The mutagenicities of naturally occurring xanthones were tested in Salmonella typhimurium TA100, TA98, TA97, and TA2637 by the preincubation method. Xanthydrol, gentisein, gentisin, isogentisin, 1-hydroxy-3,7-dimethoxyxanthone, 1,3,7-trimethoxyxanthone, desmethylbellidifolin, bellidifolin and dimethylbellidifolin were mutagenic, but unsubstituted xanthone was not mutagenic to TA100, TA98, TA97 and TA2637 with or without a metabolic activation system. The beta-O-glucosides, norswertianolin and swertianolin, were only mutagenic when a metabolic activation system containing beta-glucosidase was used, and the C-glucoside mangiferin was not mutagenic even with this system.
