Vol.2 No.07 -8 : Ameliorative potential of β-1,3-D-Glucan on acrylamide-induced cytogenetic alterations in mice.

By : Mohamed A. Ismail Abstract Acrylamide (AA) is formed in food during heat preparation (frying and baking), causing DNA toxicity. So, the aim of this study is applied β-1,3-D-Glucan (BDG) as a natural polysaccharide ameliorative to reduce the DNA hepatotoxicity and genotoxicity of bone-marrow chromosomes in male mice by using three parameters: alkaline comet […]
