Abstract

Mutagenicity of organically synthesized coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) was deter-mined by Ames assay in the presence and absence of S9mix. The tester strains were Salmonella typhimurium TA98, TA100, TA1535, and TA1537, and Escherichia coli WP2 uvr A. CoQ10 displayed no mutagenicity in any tester strain at any dose tested. Therefore, organi-cally synthesized CoQ10 was considered to possess no mutagenicity.
