Gıdalarda koruyucu katkı maddesi olarak kullanılan sodyum benzoat ve potasyum sorbat karışımının genotoksik potansiyelinin mikronukleus testi ile belirlenmesi

Abstract

Sodyum benzoat (SB) ve potasyum sorbat (PS), gıdalarda koruyucu katkı maddesi olarak yaygın bir şekilde kullanılmaktadır.  Bu çalışmada SB ve PS karışımının genotoksik potansiyeli insan lenfositlerinde mikronukleus (MN) testi ile değerlendirilmiştir.  SB+PS karışımının dokuz farklı kombinasyonu (12.5 SB+125 PS ile 50 SB+500 PS μg/mL aralığında) kültüre alınmış insan lenfositlerine 48 saat uygulanmıştır.  MN testi sonuçlarına göre; SB+PS karışımının uygulanan tüm konsantrasyonlarda mikronukleus frekansını kontrole kıyasla anlamlı düzeyde artırdığı belirlenmiştir.  Buna karşın, SB+PS karışımının çalışılan konsantrasyonlarda hücre siklusu belirteci olan nükleeer bölünme indeksini (NBİ) anlamlı düzeyde etkilemediği tespit edilmiştir.  Elde edilen sonuçlar, SB+PS karışımının in vitro koşullarda MN testi ile insan lenfositlerinde klastojenik ve/veya anöjenik etkileri olabileceğini göstermektedir.

Determination of genotoxic potential of food preservative mixture of sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate by micronucleus test

Abstract

Sodium benzoate (SB) and potassium sorbate (PS) are widely used as preservative additive in food.  The present study evaluates genotoxic potential of a mixture of SB and PS in cultured human lymphocytes by using micronucleus (MN) test.  To assess genotoxic effect, human lymphocytes were treated with nine different combinations of SB+PS (between 12.5 SB+125 PS and 50 SB+500 PS μg/mL) for 48 h.  MN test revealed that the mixture of SB+PS treatment significantly increased the MN frequency at all concentrations compared to vehicle control.  On the contrary, the mixture of SB+PS did not significantly affect the nuclear division index (NDI) that is cell cycle biomarker.  The results obtained show that the mixture of SB+PS probably induce clastogenic and/or aneugenic effects in human peripheral blood lymphocytes in vitro by MN test.
