Abstract
Mutagenic activity of quercetin and kaempferol on V79 [Chinese hamster lung] cells was investigated. Quercetin was shown to be a mutagen by the metabolic activation system and by direct application. Kaempferol was shown to be a mutagen by the metabolic activation system, but its activity by direct method seemed very low.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
