Abstract excerpt
Thirty-two commercially produced white, rosé, and red wines from Spain were assayed for genotoxicity. The Ara forward mutagenicity assay with Salmonella typhimurium served as the test system. All the wines were mutagenic in the absence of mammalian microsomal activation (S9 mix) and/or glycosidase activities with the exception of one rosé wine which gave a clear dose-response relationship, although its mutagenic...
