Ingestion of parsley inhibits the mutagenicity of male human urine following consumption of fried salmon
1987
Abstract The urinary mutagenicity of 3 nonsmoking, healthy men was investigated after strictly defined meals by means of the Ames Salmonella/microsome test. When the subjects ate 150 g of fried salmon at one meal, a potent mutagenicity of almost 5000 revertants of TA98 strain was present in all 6-h urine samples. On the other hand, less than 2500 revertants was present in the urine when the subjects simultaneously consumed 70 g of parsley and 150 g of fried salmon. Thus, the protection against mutagenicity affected by parsley warrants further attention.
